    My membership is up in a week or so. I was looking into the Walmart equivalent as a replacement, but they’ve proven to be even worse. I don’t know where to go from here.

    I’m not a daily Amazon user. Maybe one or two orders per month. But when I need those things, they can be tough to find at brick and mortar.

      Use Amazon as a search engine, find what you need, then Google the manufacturer and buy it directly from them. You’d be surprised how many have free shipping . It’s usually not two day shipping, but what do you really need that fast?

      If it’s electronics, buy online for local pickup at Best Buy. If it’s tools or house supplies, buy online for local pickup at Lowe’s or Home Depot. Buy online for local pickup at Target.

      I haven’t purchased anything from Amazon in 4 years. It’s honestly way easier now than it was before Amazon started, but no one realizes that because Amazon got them locked in.

      You can cancel Prime and keep your Amazon account. A lot of stuff still ships for free on orders of more than $25.
