6 Benefits of Amazon Prime

Have you signed up for Amazon Prime yet?  I know that many of you may think that Amazon Prime is a waste of money and as a budget shopper, I understand that completely.  $119 is a lot of money to spend each year and unless you don’t see the benefits of what that $119 can do for you, I wouldn’t want to do it either.  However that $119 is actually a pretty great deal and here’s why:

6 benefits of Amazon Prime:

  1. Special Discounts. You can almost always find special deals that are exclusive to Prime members. Be sure and keep an eye out here at our website, and stalk your Amazon account to find special deals on all kinds of stuff.
  2. Music Streaming. Do you love to listen to music?  Amazon Prime members get access to thousands of songs without having to pay for a music streaming service.   That being said, Amazon does have a music streaming service that costs money, but offers even more options, however, you don’t have to sign up for it in order to enjoy your favorite music.
  3. Movie Streaming.  Are you a movie buff? Amazon Instant Video has thousands of videos, tv shows and exclusive programs available for Prime members to stream.
  4. Free 2 Day Shipping.  One of my favorite things about Amazon is the free shipping option.  I actually buy a lot of my household stuff on Amazon (I have a toddler and barring any rock-bottom coupon deals, I exclusively shop at Amazon for diapers).
  5. Great deals. I know I already mentioned the good deals that Prime members get, but in general, you can score some great deals on Amazon! Plus, shopping Amazon saves on gas and other expenses in going to the store.
  6. Access to free books.  Prime members can also get access to Kindle books for free!  Who doesn’t like a great, free read?
