A few years ago I was hesitant on buying online, but like anything else the more you do it the easier it gets. Now, years later I have learned there are really only a few websites to shop. Almost anything I could find on a multitude of websites was also available on Amazon.com, at the same or lower price.
This year before Christmas we discovered Amazon.com even got better, we originally got Amazon Prime for the Movies, TV series and music, but toward Christmas we discovered the benefit of FREE 1-2-day shipping. With this Free shipping, Amazon actually beat the price of many Coffee websites prices for their gourmet Coffees.
If you are routine shopper on Amazon.com, trying Amazon Prime is a no brainer, it is FREE to try for 30-days, you decide if it is for your shopping needs. We use Amazon.com for many things, sometimes it is easier & cheaper than driving to the store, for us the nearest department store is 10 miles away.
Prime is worth your attention if you ever plan to shop Amazon.com:
Cancel anytime.
Prime did make many of my purchases cheaper with the free shipping, but what really worked for me, was when we ordered an item the Saturday before Christmas in the afternoon and it showed up on the doorstep on Monday 8:15 AM!
