Amazon Prime Price Increases to $99. Will You Still Use It?

Published on March 13, 2014 By Island Dog In Life, the Universe and Everything

Amazon has announced that the yearly price for Amazon Prime will increase from $79 to $99 starting this year. Amazon Prime gives you free two-day shipping, no minimum order size, unlimited streaming of movies/TV, and more. It has been $79 for many years now, and I’ve subscribed myself for quite a few.

Now I don’t think $99 is a terrible price increase. It’s most likely still a good value if you purchase a lot of stuff from Amazon. For me though, with the addition of taxes and other factors I have already been purchasing less from Amazon, and many of my purchase are just digital any ways, so I need to look through and see if $99 is still worth it to me.

If you are an Amazon Prime subscriber, what do you think of these changes? Will you continue, cancel, or take a look at your Amazon spending and think more about it?

If I was using it for my television ( I don't purchase enough online to use it for shipping) I would keep it. It's only a few cents more a month than Netflix after the increase.
