- I have Prime for the movies and TV. We use Amazon for large things that I'm not taking on the subway or where shipping would cost us a lot. - Krusty Jul 25, 07:25

    - Not only that but when you shop local that money tends to stay local and go back into the community. Most owners live near the area of their business - Krusty Jul 25, 07:22
