Amazon Prime Cost is Going UP… Here’s How to Avoid the Price Hike

Amazon Prime Cost is Going Up

It's official – the  Amazon Prime cost per month is going up, so if you're one of their many month-by-month customers you'll soon by paying $12.99 instead of $10.99 per month.

You can avoid this 18% price hike however by moving to the annual plan of $99.99 per year.  (If you're not a member yet – make sure you take advantage of this FREE 30 Day Trial first!)

This allows you to pay just $8.33 per month when broken down – and in this girl's opinion – it is so worth that cost!  For more info on WHY I think the cost is justified (at least for our family) check out my post Should You Pay for Amazon Prime.

To recap, you'll get all this for the $99 price tag:

1 . Free 2-Day Shipping on millions of items
– Plus lots of those items go on sale for less than in stores – those deals plus that convenience is SO valuable to me!

2 . Free Streaming Movies & TV
– You can cut cable and use just this if you like – there are a decent amount of shows/movies to choose from

3 . Free Kindle Books
– Find many kindle books for free – I like to go here and click Best Selling Free books, then sort by genre

4 . Amazon  Family Diaper & Wipes savings
– Extra 20% OFF!

5 . Free Photo Cloud Storage

6 . Free Music Streaming

So if you're interested in Prime but wanting to avoid the price increase – it's worth looking into the annual membership at this point.  Do you think Amazon Prime is worth the cost?  Let us know why or why not!
