I use AWS because it's a choice my company has made that I can't overturn. But I've phased buying from Amazon out of my personal life. It wasn't even difficult. If you just look a bit and stop assuming Amazon is always the best deal, you'll find it's not. Recently I wanted to buy some cheap $7 earphones. At Amazon they would have been 30 cents cheaper but I had to buy $35 worth of stuff to get free shipping. (Or pay $100/year, which would amortize to very expensive shipping for me.) Elsewhere I paid 30 cents extra for the product but got free shipping for just the one item. That's a great tradeoff.
