About Amazon Prime
Finally, online shopping the way it was meant to be: Low shipping costs, super-fast delivery, and total convenience. Amazon.com has nailed all three with Amazon Prime.
Amazon Prime is an subscription service that gives you unlimited free two-day shipping (or $3.99 one-day shipping) on items ordered from Amazon.com. If you are a frequent shopper of Amazon.com (or a frequent procrastinator on making purchases for gifts), Amazon Prime is well worth the $79 yearly cost. See the Savings Calculator to find out whether Amazon Prime makes sense for you.
There are no minimum order sizes to qualify for free shipping, and your Amazon Prime account can be shared with up to five people in your household.
Save money. Save time. Save hassle.
Most people who order occasionally from Amazon.com will find that Amazon Prime at least breaks even in terms of the yearly fee. But the advantages go beyond just cost savings. With Amazon Prime, you will almost certainly get your products faster because you no longer have to worry about paying extra for expedited shipping. And with the savings in shipping, you will rarely need to search across multiple stores to try to squeeze out the last few dollars of savings. If time is money, Amazon Prime has a value well beyond the cash you’ll save.
