This is what I was trying to avoid. You missed the "one for one" part. You are correct that you do not need Amazon Prime device stuff off of Amazon. Amazon Prime is what I'm asking about where you can order stuff from the same website and get free delivery within 2 days on average.
If you order from Amazon without Amazon Prime not only does Amazon still make money but they make more money off you. Your solution is counterproductive.
Depends how much shit you're ordering from Amazon. Which, if the amount you're saving on shipping is more than the cost of a Prime subscription, you're probably buying way too much shit from Amazon.
(Did you know that there are local stores where you can go and buy stuff and get it immediately, without having to wait for any delivery at all? And they don't even charge for that!)
I order maybe four times a year. I'm not buying shit. I'm buying essentials that would cost more in a retail store and require two gallons of gasoline per round trip. Cows outnumber people on my block. I'm not buying things I don't need. My "walk in and buy stuff" options are a Walmart. And not much more. I'm not looking for condescending people who didn't understand the assignment. I'm looking for what I asked.
Then paying for prime probably isn't saving you money. It would be cheaper to just pay the shipping costs 4 times a year.
Thank you for being the expert on my situation that I'm obviously unqualified to be. Since you have all my data please make sure you file my taxes on time. I don't want a repeat of last year where a stranger who claimed to know all my stuff failed to get it filed by the deadline.
