I think I might cancel. I'm not watching ads and I'm not going to pay the extra $3/mo to opt out. I don't know if I'd end up paying more than the subscription cost in shipping though....

All of their ads that said "there's more to prime!" are what planted the seed in my mind that I should cancel. I don't use any of the "more" stuff, but we were paying for it anyway.

I don't miss Prime at all. You still get free shipping as long as you let you wait until you have $35 of stuff in your cart.

that's fine if you have the patience for their shipping shenanigans. they sit on orders for days and/or ship from distant warehouses when you don't have the prime sub.

I haven't noticed much of a difference in shipping time. If I order something online I'm not depending on it to arrive quickly.
