Breaking Down the Benjamins: Prime Price in the Land Down Under
Here's the deal: Prime in Melbourne (well, all of Australia really) will set you back $9.99 a month or, if you're a commitment kind of person (or just want to save some cash) you can snag a yearly subscription for $79. That works out to be roughly $6.58 a month, which basically translates to a discount on your Prime lattes.
But wait, there's more! Before you hit that "subscribe" button with the enthusiasm of a magpie spotting a shiny thing, there are a few things to consider:
Tip: Slow down at important lists or bullet points.
- Free (and Fast) Shipping: This is the golden ticket, folks. Prime membership unlocks the magical world of free two-day delivery on millions of eligible items. Imagine never having to pay extra for shipping again – that's a win in our books! (Although, we can't guarantee it'll beat that lightning-quick service your local bakery provides on a hot jam donut).
- Prime Video: Because who doesn't love a good streaming binge after a long day battling Melbourne's unpredictable weather? Prime membership throws in access to Prime Video, a treasure trove of movies, TV shows, and enough documentaries to make you feel like David Attenborough Jr. Just be prepared for the occasional ad interrupting your viewing pleasure – that's the price you pay for skipping the shipping fees, apparently.
Prime or Not to Prime? That is the Question
So, is Prime worth it?
Well, that depends. If you're a die-hard online shopper who frequents Amazon like it's your second home, then the free shipping alone might justify the cost. Plus, the entertainment perks are a nice bonus. But if you're a more casual online buyer who prefers the thrill of the brick-and-mortar experience (and the chance to snag a free sample at Myer), then Prime might not be your cup of tea (or, more accurately, your flat white).
Ultimately, the decision is yours. We just recommend giving the free 30-day trial a whirl and see if the Prime life is for you. Just try not to get sucked into a documentary rabbit hole and forget about that important work deadline looming.
QuickTip: Don’t just consume — reflect.
Here's the TL;DR:
- Prime membership in Melbourne costs $9.99 a month or $79 a year.
- Free two-day shipping on eligible items is the real clincher.
- Prime Video throws in some entertainment options (with a few ads).
- Consider your online shopping habits before committing.
