[QUOTE="104Feeder, post: 1214855, member: 42554"] I think it's changing to more dynamic pricing. I just bought halloween candy to hand out there, and 100 pieces of a variety of Hershey chocolates was $11.73 while the next size up, 300 pieces, was $49.95. I bought some other candy that was cheaper but decided I didn't have enough today after it had arrived, and now the 100 piece pack is $23.53. There are lots of tricks to how they do their pricing, such as if you leave something in your cart and don't follow through they will usually lower the price after a few days. As long as they are a good value, not necessarily the cheapest, I think they will do fine. Amazon is usually my first choice for buying anything that isn't fresh produce, then Costco or the web, then the local retailers. We'll see what changes happen to the Prime membership come January. Amazon always makes me laugh and think of "Confederated Products", the Amway clone if you're a movie fan. Same idea really except they aren't trying to recruit you to sell. [/QUOTE]
