Doesn’t Amazon Prime cost like $100 per year?

$99 right now, used to be $75 IIRC. I definitely get my money’s worth out of it on shipping alone.

Yes. $99 per year. For that we get Free 2-day shipping on most items, a Netflix-type movie channel, a free book a month to borrow on Kindle, an I-tunes store with great classic rock and country music for free.

For us, it has been well worth it, but understand also that we live 40 miles from a mall, about 70 or so from a nice one.

The last time I went to our closest mall, it seemed that nearly every store was geared toward young people. Lots of surfer attire, Japanese anime tshirts, and urban hip-hop clothes.

Good for them if they're making money, but those are not my people.

When we explored Prime, I was a bit surprised. You can get so much more than books and digital music. I've bought light bulbs and boxer shorts, for example.

yes but it gives you prime instant video (like netflix), prime music (sorta like spotify but no commercials and you choose all the music you want to listen to) Kindle lending library you can borrow kindle books for no charge. plus once each month you get to choose a free kindle book to add to your library. And of course free two day shipping from prime eligible Amazon sellers (and there are thousands of them)
