Same here, especially with Amazon Fresh. In the 9 months since getting a Prime account, I spent 36% more overall than I did on Amazon from 2003-2013 combined.

Are you paying the $299 fee a year?

They haven't started charging yet--there's just a $50 minimum, which had been $30. They are rumored to start charging the fee this summer, but they were also rumored to start charging earlier in the year.

Even if they do I'll keep paying. Because the cost of Prime is subtracted from that fee, plus I personally live in a grocery deadspot. I'm about a mile away from anything but a bodega or a high-end grocery store ($6 for half a gallon of milk type of place).

Amazon Fresh has completely changed how I eat and how I often I cook.

Fresh in Seattle was originally included in regular Prime (when purchasing >$50), so the habits of Seattle-ites may change after the price goes up to $299.
