$79, I think.
Which only seems worth it if you order a lot and order often. Because even if your shipping per order is $6-7, that's 1 order a month. And I don't order stuff from Amazon that often.
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
And if you do order a lot, you get the free shipping anyway. So it'd be one order a month for less than $25, or you have the urgent needs.

Free slow shipping, though. The $79 thing gives you free (or prepaid, technically) 2-day shipping.

I don't disagree. That would be what I was alluding to with the "urgent needs."

Right. I just can't think of any urgent Amazon needs I might have. If I really want something that fast, I'll get it from a real store.

You can also use the premium shipping for up to 4 people in your household.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Plus, if you're at work, B&N has same-day shipping in Manhattan.

Thank GOD I can get my Netflix mailed back to me one day after I post it myself, but have to wait a few days for B&N. Netflix money? Fixed cost, timeliness is appreciated. Instant trade paperbacks would wreak havok with the impulse impulse (or even the Impulse impulse).

In theory. In practice, not so far.

If I only had a brain...
That might well be worth it to me. I do wind up buying extra items to hit the 25.00 barrier, and I do really resent waiting for Super Saver items.
