    I was once a college student 50 years ago; does that count?
    So now I am a Senior Citizen (Very Senior), how about us?

    Jerry, you might try doing a search engine search on a free Prime trial (which, unfortunately, tends to last only 2 weeks or a month)–they sometimes are around.
     
    Agreed that it would be nice if this wasn’t limited to students.  I guess the remedy is the old-fashioned:  just wait til you have $25+ in purchases to make, for free shipping (itself a great deal).  I almost always buy my CDs in pairs nowadays, for this reason.

    Too bad not for Canadians, since I’m currently in college.
