I haven’t paid for prime in two years. When you check out, switch to free shipping. My packages usually arrive earlier than the date they show (that incentivizes prime).
I’m happy… and patient to save all that money they want.

Go use Microsoft’s version of CGPT4. You’ll see why.

They got a look at how many were quitting on Monday and realized their whole company was screwed. This is how Sam will wipe out the board of directors, possibly with ownership percentage?

I’m not understanding. As this is the first I’ve ever heard of this, I went to their site and it looks like freebies for games you play and games from other developers.
