Amazon Prime Bonuses You Didn't Know About

Popular online wisdom says that Amazon is evil and you should stop giving it your money. However, about 76,6 million households in the US use Amazon Prime. So either the message simply didn't reach some of us, or we resigned ourselves to our fate. And if you're going to make a deal with the devil, then you have a chance to get the most out of it - that's why it's worth knowing about all the benefits of your membership. Edition Lifehacker has collected the most tidbits Amazon Prime.

Try Before You Buy

If you've bought clothes online before, you know it's an imperfect process. Until your package arrives, you should hold your breath and pray that the item looks normal and fits you. Amazon's try-before-you-buy program saves you that hassle. With this privilege, you can try on matching clothing, shoes and accessories before you actually have to pay for them. Amazon gives you seven days to try out the products at home and only charges you for the ones you end up keeping.

Prime Video

Prime Video is Amazon's streaming service. Here you can watch The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel or The Wheel of Time, the new Lord of the Rings show, or a bunch of other shows you've probably never heard of because Amazon is so bad at promoting content.

Share the benefits of Prime

You can access some of the aforementioned Amazon Prime subscription benefits without actually paying for an Amazon Prime subscription, as Amazon is shockingly calm when it comes to customers sharing their accounts. To share your account with anyone, you simply add them to your "house family". The only catch is that you have to agree to share payment methods. If you don't want to go that far, you can at least share the free shipping benefit with just one other account.
