Cheaper Prime Membership Even If You AREN’T a Student
We all know that students get preferential treatment and as a result, they only pay $69 per year. It makes sense since they generally don’t have that much disposable income, so the full price of the membership would be a bit too much for them. However, what if we told you that they aren’t the only ones that can get a cheaper membership?
That’s right! Unless you’ve read the fine print on the site, you may have missed that. But Amazon introduced a perk for the people who generally cannot think about the luxury of an Amazon Prime subscription. If you qualify for EBT or government assistance, you can save money on the membership!
Of course, there are some addendums and a time limit for the discount (up to 4 years), but you can read more about these on their site.

I heard somewhere that Seniors over 65 get a reduced rate, is this true and if so, how much?
I am a senior ( age 82 ) and was inquiring about a senior rate since I am now being for a renewal. the invoice #018358089 was recently received.
How about offering a discount to seniors living on fixed incomes and how about veterans? I am a veteran and I work with veterans and they’re struggling, also.
These price hikes are starting to make me rethink this Prime thing. At some point, the cost starts to outweigh the benefits.
I will be cancelling my Prime Membership. To costly for what I use it for. I only do it for shipping with auto subscription but that is not as good as it use to be. Prices not consistent and sometimes I see where I could have ordered an item cheaper. I don’t use music, books, streaming services, or anything else it might offer. There should be an option for a price depending on what you use.
Time to seriously sit down and do the numbers. We’ve already learned that free shipping isn’t necessarily “free”. Videos aren’t the best And 139 is a big bite Inflation? Greed.
I use Amazon a lot since I am handicapped and can’t get out to shop frequently. It’s totally worth the annual fee for free and fast shipping, discounts on items I use, access to online books, and Prime Video (with great content) on my streaming service. An Amazon Fresh will be opening in my area soon and I’m looking forward to using that too.
They just billed my credit card for $149.00 for Prime. I am going to have to opt out.

Why are they saying I already made that comment I did. This is the first time I have ever even got on here.
