Seems everything on prime is slowly going up in price in comparison to others. Seems to be at least $5 more on most things.
So you pay $80 a year to get "free" 2 day shipping, but then they just fold in part of the shipping into the price.
Maybe all the other products you get with prime are changing this.

I dunno, my first year was on the free student prime, then I subscribed after that to keep the free 2 day shipping for textbooks, and I buy a lot of stuff on amazon as well.

apparently the student membership price is good for up to 4 years after the trial, but you can't share it with other household members like you can with regular prime.

Still cheaper than a store more than half the time. Used to be at least 90% of the time it was cheaper than a store though.

Nah, you are missing the point.
Amazon prime eligible items seem to be going up while the same items NOT via prime are not.
AKA, Amazon is hitting you up for extra.
