    No, that's the appeal of Amazon and some sites when you shop online.

    Absolutely, but better deals might squeak out the extra couple bucks. Would probably be more inclined to buy small items if the Super Saving Shipping $25 limit is reduced....though I don't it's unreasonable now. Amazon rules.

    Yes! I will most definitely still shop at Amazon! Their prices are many times better than local stores (even with Tax) and you simply can not beat they free 2-day shipping with a Prime Membership! Prime alone makes shopping at Amazon worth it with their quick and free 2-day shipping.

    it depends on final price, if it's the same as local store, I will support my local business first.

    They already charge here in TX and I still shop there. I like getting mail, shipping is free, and it is usually more convenient than driving to local stores.

    Only if their overall price still remains the lowest.

    I guess it will depend on whether their prices remain as competitive as they are now, otherwise I'll look for an alternative place... or create my own... =[)

    It won't affect me here in Utah, but I would still buy there.

    Yes, but not as much any more, especially the big ticket items.

    It depends on the price difference. There's enough of a discount where it's usually worth it, but if the local businesses come close in price, I'll shop there to support them.
