Free Shipping!

That's right, free 2 day shipping with Amazon Prime. It's only $79 a year. As Jon Stewart pointed out in an interview with Jeff Bezos, "then it's not free." Marketing fluff aside, I love the service. It makes impulse buying on Amazon so easy.

On Thursday, I decided to order the tripod I had been eyeing for months. For only $4, they send it with next day shipping. That's still cheaper than sales tax.
