We don't! We actually don't order that often from Amazon! Crazy right?
We've had it a few times with different promos and such, probably won't get it until baby dos is in the picture!

Yes! We love it. We do most of our shopping on Amazon, so it comes in handy.

I had the free trial and used it to order a ton of Christmas gifts. I cancelled it though. I don't shop online much.

Yup. I didn't use Amazon much before I had it but I did a free trial and found it to be SO convenient so I've kept it and now I use it constantly. Need new bibs? Why run to Target, order from Amazon. Hubs needs new socks for Christmas? Order from Amazon and have it shipped to Boston so I don't have to haul it up there. It's changed my life!

Yes! I love it!
Example: went to target to buy my goddaughter presents. Found them $20 cheaper on prime and shipping to her was free so I saved $30 !

BIL added us as family members so we get the free Prime shipping! But no free streaming

Yes, but only because DHs friend referred him to it so we get it for free. I don't think I'd get it if I had to pay for it.

Yep! My mom got it for me last year and it has changed my life. Even my MIL will tell me she needs something, like cat litter, and I'll have it shipped right to her, and she gives me the money back when she sees me.
It really helps when I need to get heavy things, like the cat litter or salt for our aquarium.

I didn't order from Amazon that much until I got prime. It's amazing what you can find on Amazon. My husband has ordered so many parts for our dishwasher, washing machine, etc through prime. And I did 90% of my Christmas shopping on Amazon. It is soooo worth it!
GOLD / pomegranate / 3688 posts
Yes and I think it's worth it's weight in gold. But DH and I work full-time and we have a baby. Not having to spend precious weekend time at Target is so nice. We buy pretty much everything except food on Amazon - diapers and wipes, all household products and cleaning supplies, toilteries, you name it.

Yes! I use it exactly like @MAMAMOOSE. My biggest coup was ordering an air conditioner window unit via prime...omg it was amazing to just have it show up at our doorstep instead of having to schlep it around.
The first time I used it (in 2011), I made up half the cost of Prime when I bought Christmas gifts for my nieces.
What's also true is that my husband and I both work, so I would much prefer to shop online and play with LO on the weekends, then drag LO around running errands on Saturdays and Sundays.

yep, i love it! with my prime together with amazon mom, i get 20% off my subscribe & save when i have 5 or more items in that month's subscription. my dec order just shipped & saved me 20% off my dishwasher detergent, toilet paper, protein powder & bars for SO, lotion, HPTs, & toothbrush heads for our electric toothbrushes. amazon already has low prices, all but one item had a coupon, with the 20% off and the fact that i don't have to drive anywhere to go buy all of it, it's totally worth it to me!

Yes! We use it all the time and I use the video feature often as well. I have placed like 10 orders in the last 2 weeks.

We just got a free trial for the holiday shopping season. We plan to keep it afterward though because we think it will come in hand once the babies are here.
bananas / 9357 posts
Yes! I order from Amazon all the time. I love to order just everyday stuff so I don't have to go to the store.
hostess / watermelon / 14932 posts
I want it! trying to find someone who wants to split the cost! none of my family members are interested, lol.
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
Yes and I LOVE it!!!
Although now that I have it, I find I'm ordering even MORE from Amazon than I used to! Not sure that's a good thing...

I just recently had the free trial then I noticed there was a $82 charge from Amazon on it and they automatically signed me up. I cancelled it and got my money back. I just wouldn't use it enough.
wonderful pea / 17279 posts
Yes and now that we have Roku the benefits of it have multiplied.
wonderful olive / 19353 posts
Nope! We order from Amazon often, but never needed something so urgent that we couldn't wait for standard shipping. If we did, we just went out to the local store and buy it (given the price difference isn't crazy). I had the trial Amazon Mom and did like the expedited shipping, but not for $79.

Yep. I've had it for a couple of years now. I got it initially with Amazon Mom, then renewed it. DH loves it since we share it. Also, when I was on maternity leave, I loved having diapers delivered to our door among other stuff. It made maternity leave a lot easier. I now have some S&S for diapers and wipes.
GOLD / wonderful pea / 17697 posts
Yes, since 2010. I'm very spoiled by it! I just received a shipment of toilet paper, lol!
hostess / wonderful grape / 20803 posts
Yes! We live in the boonies and so I order from them all the time. There's not a target within 1.5 hrs from us!
GOLD / wonderful olive / 19030 posts
I did the 3 month trial and used it a lot...but I dont' know if I would use it enough during the year to committ! I'm trying to convince DH but he's not going for it! I didn't care for their TV options as much as NEtflix (or I didn't understand it, it kept saying I had to pay!)
grapefruit / 4663 posts
Yep, love it. I'm rural so its really changed what we can and can't get easily.
@MamaMoose: this. My UPS driver knows us by name, oops.

I do. I signed up with my .edu email address when I was in grad school, so it was free for a year and now it's only $39/year or something like that. I don't order things terribly often, but when I do it's nice to have free, quick shipping!
pomegranate / 3872 posts
Yup! I LOVE Amazon Prime. Especially now that we have LO, it is totally possible that I can't get to a certain store for something in 2 days. I've gotten things in 24 hours before! It's a lifesaver for gifts, too!
