Speaker 1: Is there some change with the Amazon You're being mildly

2
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 1: inconvenienced by Amazon. What's going on?

3
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're ending their Prime Invite program. So going forward,

4
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 2: only people living in the same household can share Prime

5
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 2: benefits under the Amazon Family Program.

6
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 1: Uh huh.

7
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 2: So the old program would allow friends and family different

8
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 2: addresses to share the shipping perks of Amazon Prime, but

9
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 2: now they're only going to allow you to share it

10
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 2: with one other adult in the same household or up

11
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,840
Speaker 2: to fourteens or four children.

12
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: Okay, you're speaking hieroglyphics there, so cause you know, I

13
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,160
Speaker 1: don't know how the internet works that I know that you.

14
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 2: And Gabrielle you have Amazon Prime. You do, and you're

15
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 2: aware that you do.

16
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 1: But yeah, she hits a button on the television. I

17
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 1: can watch the football games on Thursday night on the

18
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 1: Amazon Prime, right, and then I know there's all these

19
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: boxes that show up to our house that say Amazon

20
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 1: on them.

21
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, and she's getting free shipping on those well because

22
00:00:59,120 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 2: she's in.

23
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: Well, she's paying for it, right, I mean they're not again,

24
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: they're not running soup kitchens over there. Mister Bezos is

25
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: doing quite well. I'm paying something for it, aren't I.

26
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're paying a monthly fee for it. It's probably

27
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,479
Speaker 2: less than if you didn't have it. Oh, okay, pay

28
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 2: the shipping costs of all of the items.

29
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: Okay, she purchases, So this is some special service that

30
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 1: I pay for.

31
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 2: Right, It's really it's really not going to affect you

32
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 2: much until Livy learns how to shop online, which I

33
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 2: know will be a long time.

34
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: Okay. So because all the things we order are going

35
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: to come to my house, correct, right, we don't have

36
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:34,639
Speaker 1: people abroad or whatever.

37
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 2: Right, this is going to affect me. Okay, because I've

38
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,759
Speaker 2: got my daughter on my Amazon Prime account and.

39
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: She doesn't live with you. She doesn't live with us.

40
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: So you used to be able to send things to

41
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 1: her in Baltimore from your account send it.

42
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 2: Right, or she could shop and just order something herself

43
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 2: and have it shipped to her.

44
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: Why are they now? Why are they ending this? What's

45
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: going on?

46
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 2: Well, they're saying that they want to invest heavily to

47
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 2: expand their fast delivery to rural and small town America

48
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 2: and their goal is to cover one thousand of the

49
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 2: four thousand targeted towns and areas by the end of

50
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 2: the year, and to do that they got to kick

51
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 2: my daughter off for Amazon Prime account.

52
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: Oh so there are certain areas what Amazon won't deliver to.

53
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: Is that?

54
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: Is that what you takes the longer?

55
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay, so I thought.

56
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 2: So what really they're trying to do is trying to

57
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 2: get money from her and me well to cover the

58
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 2: cost of expanding.

59
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: Well there, they're a for profit company. Casey, Again, they're not.

60
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:31,239
Speaker 1: They're not in it for you.

61
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 2: They're not.

62
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: They don't offer that Amazon Prime out of the goodness

63
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: of their of their heart. So what they're basically saying

64
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: is it's costing us too much to deliver to multiple

65
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: people who are essentially mooching off the same account, and

66
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: as such, we're not gonna do that anymore, now, will

67
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: your daughter?

68
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 2: Okay?

69
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 1: So I guess she's got one or two options. Either

70
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: she can get her own, which is their goal, or

71
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: it can always just get delivered to you and then

72
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 1: when you make the trips out to Baltimore, you just

73
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: bring it with.

74
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 2: You and deliver. Yeah, you're right. I didn't think about

75
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 2: that option.

76
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 1: But why I'm hearing an ideas person.

77
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 2: It's fourteen ninety nine, or you could pay one hundred

78
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 2: and thirty nine dollars a year for this. But if

79
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 2: you're going to do this, you have to sign up

80
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 2: by October first.

81
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: October okay, well, I guess I'm already signed up for it,

82
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: so I don't this exactly. You're good, okay,
