Amazon very rarely has the lowest prices on anything if you shop around. Books, for instance, are usually cheaper on Overstock. I have a Prime membership nonetheless, due to the convenience and incredible customer service.

But without having to shop around I know they are near the lowest. Within a few clicks I can have it on my door in a couple of days--no time wasted checking around. I buy tons of stuff on Amazon (literally the jeans I'm wearing now to the pans I cooked dinner in).
