Is Amazon Prime right for you? + Get a Prime Membership for just $79 this weekend

November 17, 2016/ Lydia Senn

Amazon is having a special sale on Prime Membership. This is a rare deal and you can get a membership for the old price of $79 saving you $20 on your annual membership. It usually costs $99 a year, so it's a pretty good deal. This deal starts Friday, November 18 at 12 a.m. E.T. and ends 3 a.m. Saturday, November 19 at 3 a.m. E.T.

I'm busy, you're busy, we're all busy. I don't have the time to run to Walmart because we ran out of coffee, diapers or toilet paper. Do you?

That's why I am in love with my Amazon Prime membership. But is it right for you? This is a question I get a lot from readers. Is a Prime Membership worth the money?

It is finally November and we are inching our way closer to Christmas. Don't blink because the holiday season will be here before you know it.

This year I vow to have ALL of my Christmas gifts purchased, wrapped and ready to go before Thanksgiving. I am pleased to say that most of the gifts have already been purchased thanks to Amazon.

It's no secret that I LOVE Amazon. It saves my family money and time by having everyday things shipped to our house.

Since we don't have a savings club membership I use Amazon to buy bulk items and even basic toiletries.

Maximizing your Amazon Prime Membership

May 18, 2015/ Lydia Senn

It's no secret that I LOVE Amazon. Let's face it, I love any opportunity to shop and not have to put on real pants.

Three years ago my husband and I decided to dish the dish and opt to use Netflix and Amazon Prime. I wasn't convinced Amazon Prime was worth the money, that was because I didn't understand ALL the benefits.

Declutter and make money off Amazon: How I made $155.78 in Amazon Gift Cards in ONE DAY

February 17, 2015/ Lydia Senn

It seems like everyone I encounter, or at least every MOM I encounter, is trying to do the same thing, find ways to save money and declutter their home.

Yes. I get it. I am always trying to do the same thing.

And one of my favorite ways to declutter and MAKE extra money is by using the Amazon Trade -In program. In fact, I earned $155.78 in gift cards IN ONE DAY simply by getting rid of DVDS, books and video games that I no longer wanted, needed or used.
