    I meant without Prime. Most of the time, my orders take 4-6 days to even ship anymore. I’ll occasionally sign up for a month of Prime when they offer it for free again, and it’s back to normal for that month.

    But yeah, there isn’t free 2-day shipping anymore, just “free Prime shipping,” which is slower than 2-day and faster than non-Prime.

      Ah yes, they claim it’s “for your convenience”, “keep shopping!”, “any order you place in (x # of) days will ship for free with this order”. I’m perfectly fine with it, honestly; I online shop exclusively in the slow lane. Free, but slow, shipping? Fine by me. 🐌
