You don't have to be a member to shop.
For the longest time I chose not to be a Prime member. Everytime around Christmas, I would join to get the free shipping and then cancel. Decide this go round to keep it. Glad I did. I know over the year I have saved more than my $90 membership. Many times I will find something in a store, and then find it cheaper on Amazon. With two days shipping for Prime, it's a no-brainer.
Yes, there are some things still cheaper elsewhere, and I do still check. And yes, there are sometimes I don't mind paying a tad more, if it contributes to a local business, but when I can order on Amazon Sunday nite and have it by Tuesday, for a lot less, it's worth it to me.
