I’m with you 100%. Could you try and explain this to my wife?
I'm sure she's capable of understanding that on her own. If you'd like to cut it, I recommend pulling some numbers:
With that, you could make a case for dropping it. You could also agree that if there are problems, you can always sign up again. Then it's on you to anticipate things you'll need and order in advance. I am proactive about keeping stuff on hand, so it's not an issue for us. That's how I convinced my wife we don't need it, and we haven't had it for a couple years now
That said, get a free Amazon Prime trial every 6 months or so, so we often sign up around Christmas, then cancel.
I’ve made the case. The indoctrination by Amazon is strong though, and they feel they need it. Plus we’ve got a stubborn one over here and new ideas are bad ideas unless they are their ideas. There’s a lag but logic is logic and it sets in eventually… I’mma just let the in-laws work on them they’re much more annoying😉
Lol, wherever works for your marriage. :)
