    And I will “ramp up” my savings (I don’t have prime and just want to say something funny) (Funny in my head) (By head I mean my thoughts)

    I cancelled my Netflix subscription last week after they decided to retire my current plan and moved me to their ad tier. The only reason I don’t cancel Prime is that I pay for one day delivery, not for their streaming service.

    What for? I have Prime and the rare occasion I turn it on, I can’t watch anything. I need additional subscriptions to watch anything there.

  4. We stopped watching prime videos a few months ago. Last time I tried it said Ad 1/6 so I gave up. There are fewer ads on the free streaming channels. If something is only I prime easier to just download it.

  5. They aren’t too bad at the moment but I will probably go back to torrent if i have to sit through 2-5mins of ads again. It’s just not going to happen for me.

    I stopped watching prime when they went to ads. I am going to cancel my subscription when it is close to expiring since I don’t watch anything from Amazon and have not for months.

    I will just purchase the few items I can only find on Amazon and I will make sure my order is enough to get free delivery. Even delivery for most of what I order from them doesn’t even arrive in 2 days.
