Amazon Prime? Mom? Student?
« on: January 29, 2013, 10:02:04 PM »
I am currently a student and my wife and I are expecting our first child in March. I was told by several people to sign up for Amazon Prime. Others suggest Amazon Student. And a third group suggest Amazon Mom.

What should I sign up for? Whats the difference between them?

Please help!

search and ye shall find. But in short...

Sign up for amazon prime as a student via amazon student - they give 6 months prime free, then 40 per year instead of the usual 79. then join amazon mom - which has no fee. Then you will be eligible for the proper discounts for subscribe and save diapers etc...

Once one finishes their Prime 6 month trial, and they don't auto-renew, will  they ever be able to do the 6 month trial all over again?  Or does Amazon restrict it to once in a lifetime?

TIA

I've done it with different amazon accounts and they emailed me that the cc I have registered is registered to another account that already got a free trial. I ignored the email and no arm was done. But they do their homework on this stuff

What kind of proof do you need that you're a student?

You need a .edu email address (a real one that you can access).
