You're kidding right? Are there actually people thinking they just can't live without Amazon Prime? Seriously? Fuck even if you HAVE to order something off of Amazon, which you absolutely don't HAVE to do, you don't fuckin need prime just for... what... slightly faster shipping?

Free shipping, but at that point you should question why you are buying so much from amazon in the first place

$25 gets you free shipping anyways unless they changed it!
