Streaming Content
We cancelled our cable subscription years ago, and switched completely over to streaming. Between Amazon Prime, Hulu and Netflix, we’ve never regretted it. With Prime Video, we can enjoy unlimited streaming of Movies, TV shows, and Amazon Originals.
Some of my kids favorite Prime Video shows to watch are Spongebob Square Pants, Blippi, Peppa Pig, Kung Fu Panda and Om Nom. They can stream hours of shows on our smart TV, and on their Kindle Fire tablets. This is so great when traveling long distances too. You can download shows to keep them busy on those crazy travel days.
Amazon Prime Video also has great content for adults too! I enjoy watching movies like Coming 2 America, Anchor Man 2, Office Space and Top Gun. There’s some great series too, like Jack Ryan, Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Dexter, Psych, and The Terminal List.
Thursday Night Football is also coming to Prime Video in September! You’ll be able to stream the games live.
Try Before You Buy
Have you ever seen a cute top or pair of pants online, and thought, it’s adorable on the model, but it might look weird on me? Well, now you can try out clothes from Amazon, and whatever you don;t like, you just return it. You are only billed for the items you keep. This is a great way to try out clothing, and be sure you are only paying for the things you really love!
Amazon Reading
Like to read? I take my Kindle with me anytime I’m going to have a moment alone. It’s hard to squeeze in time to read, but when I do, I like to enjoy books on the go. As a Prime member, you can now read as much as you like from over a thousand top Kindle books, magazines, short works, books with Audible narration, comics, children’s books and more—all at no additional cost.
Whole Foods Discounts
Amazon Prime members save an extra 10% off* when shopping at Whole Foods. In some areas, you can do your grocery shopping online for pick up or delivery! It’s just so convenient when hauling little kids around to be able to just pop in and grab your groceries. Even better when they’re cheaper! This perk alone, is worth the annual membership fee!
