I’m not sure if it’s all items or all the times, but I believe if you choose the slower option, Amazon will actually credit your account some money (though I think from the way it was worded it sounded like it was only for Amazon MP3 or similar purchases, not a general Amazon credit - certainly if it was general credit, I’d do it more often).
FREE No-Rush Delivery (typical delivery one week after placing an order).
Note: You may receive promotional credit for selecting No-Rush Shipping. Credit will be automatically applied to your Amazon.com account once the first package from a No-Rush Shipping-eligible order ships. You'll receive an e-mail as soon as the credit is available. You may select No-Rush Shipping as many times as it's offered to you, but you won't be eligible for the credit if you cancel your No-Rush Shipping order or return items from it.
And from their forums: "You get a $1 mp3 credit if you choose the slower shipping option."
