Amazon Reduces Free Shipping Minimums

Uh, that "Free Shipping" costs you $99/year. One purchase a month works out to over $8 in shipping charges. Quite a few places ship cheaper than that.

"Safety net"? Having Amazon store your credit card for quick usage is a "safety net"?

That $99 covers so much more than just "free shipping". Having to enter my credit card once at one site, versus entering it at many sites? Damned skippy! If you haven't noticed, you can buy nearly anything from nearly any vendor (at that vendor's price), right through Amazon.
