Amazon Free Trials And Promotions Roundup
I thought it would be helpful to put together a list of all of Amazon’s free trials and promotions that they are currently running. I will be updating and re-posting this on a monthly basis. These are all affiliate links and we get a small fee if you decide to sign up for any of the programs. It is a good way to support the website if you see something you wanted to test out anyway. Remember that most of these will come with an auto renewal so set up a calendar reminder so you can decide if you want to use it long term.

Amazon Prime
Amazon Prime –
Test out Amazon Prime free for 30 days. You will then be placed into the monthly plan at $14.99 a month. If you enjoy the service you are better off paying the yearly plan at $139 per year saving you almost $40 a year.
You can connect your Prime account to your Twitch account for free. Perfect for gamers out there.
With the holidays fast approaching you can also give the gift of Prime Membership. This is also a good way to lock in the lower price the next time Amazon increases the Prime membership price.
Prime Discounted Monthly Offering –
Prime is just $5.99/month for qualifying customers in select U.S. government assistance programs such as holders of the EBT card.
Create an Amazon Business Account –
Amazon offers business only price savings with these accounts and they are free. They sometimes pair up with other promos like the recent Uber promo and $100 off your first order offer. Sometimes they also offer a free gift for signing up for an account so it may be worth waiting.
Once you have an Amazon business account you are eligible for the Amazon Business card’s increased offer of $150 upon approval and 5% back on Amazon.

Thanks for the hot tip on Q2 with Freedom cards! Are all the offers out of date?
Updated – thanks for bringing it up in such a gracious way!!
I have never had groceries delivered.
I think it’s probably time to remove the “Shop with Amazon App, Get $10 Promo Code” which expired June 30, 2020, from the list.
Done – thanks
In some markets, Amazon Prime now offers free 2 hour delivery from Whole Foods. I signed up for the service in October (and received the “invitation” within 2 weeks) but have not yet ordered from them. I think you have to live pretty close to a Whole Foods for this to apply. My old address was 10 miles away and the free service wasn’t offered. New address is about 5 miles away and that works.

Thanks Pauline – good info
I have never had grocery deliveries. I’ve never tipped delivery for AmEx or UPS. What is the norm, or expectation, for a tip to your grocery deliveryman, since I imagine they aren’t just left at your door?
I would think tipping them about what you do a pizza driver would be nice but I would expect it would depend on how much stuff they are hauling in for you.
I ordered through Amazon for a Whole Foods delivery last week. Amazon automatically adds a $5.00 tip but you can remove it if you want. I was fine with the tip as I am grateful people are willing to do these jobs. They did just leave it at the door. No contact. Oh, and no delivery fee; I think it has to be at least a $35.00 order for no delivery fee.
