Has anyone joined Amazon's Prime program? I'm debating it and wondering whether any of you have any thoughts on the subject.

What is the Amazon's Prime program? Haven't been on the amazon site in awhile, I'm afraid.

Friend me!

I haven't done this, but I suppose it all boils down to whether you spend $80/year on shipping or not with Amazon. If so, then this is a great idea!

L - can I friend you? It's Heidi! :)

I've friended you. Do I need to do anything for you to friend me? I'm such a newbie at this LJ thing!

Well, I'm definitely not joining because I always avail of the free super saver shipping. I'm cheap like that. LOL

[duchess4urheart]

Me too. I figure I can always find smthng I need at amazon so why not just get it then and avoid the shipping fees.

icedsplit and duchess4urheart (there's gotta be an easier way to put your usernames there...lol...I'll learn eventually) - I usually do the free super saver shipping, too. It's the frugal heart of me. But the impatient part of me is tempted to sign up.

I'm wondering if people have signed up and paid for the prime program, only to not get their orders in time.

I have a feeling that my frugal side will win out over my impatient side.

I don't know if it's easier but you can type [lj user=username] to make the names show up like this: lyndabyrd :) Just replace the [] with <>.

This is Michelle, by the way. May I add you? :D
