Unfortunately it
didn’t help. every link I click just takes to the website. I don’t know who o check if I qualify for 50%off, I have one of those things listed.
Sorry for any confusion. Are you by chance a student? Or if you have an EBT or Medicaid Card, you’d qualify for one of the discounts above. If you don’t have Prime, you can grab he free trial!
If you have Spectrum internet , Spectrum will pay for your Prime membership just as long as you stay with Spectrum.
Oh wow! Thanks for the heads up on that!
No I don’t have EBT nor Medicaid, but I have one of the things from your long list. Where do I check if I qualify?
