My favorite Vanilla Hazelnut tea. The grocery section is great for a spice you're out of, among many other other cheap items.

I also like games, such as Cards, and I search by price Lowest to Highest. They always have a few kids' toys at a time for 80-90% off, so I can add to my b-day/Christmas supply.

I'm a prime member. For 80 bucks a year 4 people in my family get free shipping. With the price of gas right now I think Amazon is fairly competitive. I can shop in my p.j.'s (thats gotta be worth something!) I use Amazon to send bulk grocery items to my son at college. I use Amazon to send gifts many times a year... I would bet that we collectively make 80 purchases a year from Amazon so its worth it. I just make sure I purchase exclusively from Amazon so that the shipping is 'free'

I usually add children's books, like a board book for my son if I can't meet the $25 free shipping line.
