Amazon Prime/Mom/Registry PSA

[christy082]

So I have had Amazon Prime for a while now but just realized yesterday that if you have Prime, Amazon Mom is included free. Amazon Mom gets you 20% off diapers subscriptions and 15% baby registry completion discount instead of the normal 10% completion discount.  As I have an Amazon registry and will be needling diapers in the near future, I was excited!

Just wanted to let you all know in case you have Prime (or are thinking about it). I'm not sure how much Amazon Mom costs without having Prime, but I did see that if you sign up for Mom, you get a free month of Prime with that.

I looked into it and I *think* it was the same price as Prime, or not much cheaper, so it made more sense to go with Prime anyways. I will have to look at it again though and see if there is someone we could share it with to make the cost a little better! I just wish we didn't live in an apartment so ordering things would be easier!

I didn't even know about Amazon Mom (I guess why would I, yet). I subscribe to Prime already so I'll definitely take advantage!

I don't think you can get Amazon Mom if you aren't a Prime member. It's basically a benefit for paying for Prime

I got an email a few weeks ago saying they were changing the Amazon Mom 20% off on subscriptions to only 15% on single subscriptions, but they'll do 20% if you have 5 subscribe and save shipments in a month. I miss the easy days of Amazon Mom where they had everything I needed in stock and I didn't have to worry about a certain amount of shipments in a month to get the 20% discount (the program was fairly new about 4 years ago when I had my daughter and it was awesome, but I feel like there are so many holes to jump through now).

Whoops, didn't realize that.  Probably wasn't clear to me because I'm already a Prime member and when I looked on Amazon about it I was signed into my account.  Good to know!

Huh. That's annoying. When I signed up it didn't say anything about having to have 5 subscriptions. Wonder if they plan to change that on the signup site.

It's not supposed to happen until November sometime, I think. The 15% off registry completion discount was very nice to have though And it'll still be 20% off for a bit longer so I might stock up on diapers.

Amazon Prime is the best thing ever.

Diapers will remain 20% off.  It is the other subscribe and save items that are changing from 20% to 15% (when you order  5 items).  Diapers are always 20%off (you don't have to order 5 items).

Well that is lovely! Thank you for the clarification!
