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…

    I wish I could just get Prime shipping and drop the video service. I may still drop the whole thing.

        I don’t know where you live, but around here stores only carry what most people buy. If you want something other than plain vanilla, you have to find it online.

          Then take a look at the manufacturers website and see what retailers they use.

          Many stores will also let you order items for pickup that they don’t normally stock at your local location. Ask a clerk or again, check their site.

            You got hit with a bunch of down votes but it’s not incredibly hard to avoid Amazon, it’s just a little less convenient. Of course, it’s going to depend and vary based on where you are located.
