Last week I canceled my Amazon Prime membership. It felt so good on so many levels. I asked myself why I am paying prime membership? For expedited shipping on products I haven’t purchased yet and don’t know what they will be? To pay for products that will be shipped in two days instead of 5 days? I can wait. If it’s urgent, I will go to a brick and mortar. Finally, for Amazon prime video, a crappy streaming service in comparison? I hardly use this streaming service. It was an easy decision.

I tend to pick up prime every few months or so when I know we’ll be making a few purchases - birthdays, Christmas etc.
About 2 months ago I did my usual google search for the prime sign up link. Hit the student page by mistake. Whatever, I thought, it’ll realise I’m not a student and bill me correctly when I don’t prove it.
Nope, I’m still on a 6 month trial and still not entirely sure how I pulled it off. But hey, that’s money better in my pocket than Jeffrey’s.

That happened to me somehow and there was no way to correct it. It lasted for over 2 years for me if I remember correctly
