To all the momma's out there, if you have ever thought about getting an Amazon Prime membership let you tell you why you should!


✨How much does it cost? An Amazon Prime Membership is either a one-time payment of $119 a year or $13 a month.

✨What does that include?


Delivery benefits

  • FREE Two-Day Delivery: Millions of items delivered fast and free.

  • FREE One-Day Delivery: Available on more than 10 million items with no minimum purchase.

  • FREE Same-Day Delivery: Available on over 3 million items on qualifying orders over $35. Order in the morning, typically before noon, and get your items by 9 p.m.

Streaming and digital benefits

  • Prime Video Channels: $4.99–$14.99/month for Prime members. Watch your favorite shows and movies from HBO, SHOWTIME and STARZ channels — no cable required, cancel anytime and no additional apps to download.

  • Prime Music: Stream more than 2 million songs, plus thousands of playlists and stations. Learn more about Prime Music.

  • Amazon Music Unlimited: $7.99/month for Prime members. Start a 30-day free trial to access tens of millions of songs from today's most popular artists. Listen ad-free with unlimited skips. Download for offline listening.

  • FreeTime Unlimited: $2.99/month for Prime members. Start a 30-day free trial to access thousands of top kid-friendly games, videos, and educational content, featuring brands like Disney, Nickelodeon, and PBS KIDS.

  • Twitch Prime: Get free game content every month and a Twitch Channel Subscription.

  • Amazon Photos: Store. Print. Share. Prime members get unlimited photo storage, custom print options, and the ability to share pics with friends and family.

✨Amazon Video has actually saved me money in the long run. I no longer subscribe to any other services like Cable TV, Netfix, or Hulu, because I have everything I need included in my Prime membership! Amazon Video has thousands of popular movies and TV shows at no extra cost, including exclusives and award-winning Amazon Originals available in over 200 countries and territories worldwide. As a Prime member, I can subscribe to 100+ premium channels like HBO, SHOWTIME, STARZ, CBS All Access, and Cinemax. I only pay for the channels I want and can cancel at any time!


A bonus feature is that I can also watch any movies or tv shows I want on the go, with my Amazon Video app! ✨I love Amazon Photos and how simple and easy it is to use. I downloaded the Amazon Photos app on my phone, which allows me to securely store my photos on my phone into the Amazon Cloud Drive. This is where I can choose and print photos right from my phone and have them printed and delivered right from Amazon. It's amazing!!!

Shopping benefits

  • Prime at Whole Foods Market: Exclusive savings for Prime members, 5% Back for eligible Prime members with the Amazon Prime Rewards Visa Signature Card, and 2-hour delivery in select cities (more soon).

  • Amazon Prime Rewards Visa Signature Card: Eligible Prime members earn 5% Back every day on all Amazon.com and Whole Foods Market purchases, in addition to rewards everywhere else you shop.

  • Amazon Prime Store Card: Eligible Prime members can get 5% back every day on Amazon.com purchases and access to exclusive financing offers.

  • Prime Wardrobe: Try on clothes, shoes, jewelry, and accessories from the comfort of your home, and pay only for what you keep.

  • Early Access to Deals: Get 30-minute early access to Lightning Deals on Amazon.com.

  • Prime Exclusives: Amazon's hand-picked products offered exclusively to Prime members.

  • Amazon 4-star and Amazon Books Stores: Prime members pay Amazon.com prices on all products in-store.

  • Alexa Voice Deals: Prime members can shop with Alexa and receive an additional discount on select deals.

  • Prime Reload: All Prime members can earn 2% rewards on their debit spending when they reload their Amazon.com Gift Card Balance with a designated debit card.

✨I have yet to try Amazon Wardrobe yet, but have been meaning to get on top of it, because they offer some great benefits! You can choose up to 8 items to try on and you only pay for what you end up keeping. Super simple and easy process to be able to try on the clothes you like and keep the ones you love!


✨If you have an #Alexa device you can even be styled by Alexa, just by asking, "Hey Alexa, what should I wear today?" You can ask her any styling advice depending on where you are going! Sounds too good to be true right?!


✨I think my favorite feature will be the personal shopper. I do not like to go shopping, but I do like to shop online. I have a distinct taste and fashion sense, so I feel like this could be my new way of shopping, just by putting in my style.


✨There is even a feature called style snap, which is very convenient to unload a photo of an inspired outfit or look to find something similar to it! You can shop other members inspired looks!

Reading benefits

  • Prime Print Magazines: Prime members can choose from select 4-month magazine subscriptions for only $0.99.

  • Prime Book Box: Subscription program that delivers hand-picked children's books every 1, 2, or 3 months. Each box costs $19.99, saving Prime members up to 40% off list price.

✨I have loved the Amazon audible reading benefits! I have listened to so many new titles that I would have paid almost $20 a title for. It is so relaxing to listen to your favorite books early in the morning before everyone else is awake while having a good working out session, and right before bedtime. It's amazing how many new releases and titles are available to listen to. This is been one of the best benefits of having an Amazon Prime Membership!
