Amazon Prime?

I'm also happy with my Prime membership but the next day delivery thing is a bit of a con. I'll give you an example:

I wanted a particular USB memory stick for my daughter and the price I found was £6 with free delivery, (not Prime). I clicked the Prime checkbox to show only items available on Prime, and the cheapest one was £9.99. So you do pay for next day delivery after all. This is common, but something I put up with due to the other benefits.

As someone else said there's no con, just different sellers. Something with a "Prime" offer tends to get the "buy box" even if there are lower priced offers. An offer on Prime can be from Amazon or marketplace sellers with items stored at Amazon warehouses. It's always worth checking what other offers there are beyond the buy box. It's also worth checking the delivery time, it may well be the £6 USB stick was coming from China and would take two weeks and the Amazon delivery is next day.

I love prime and would miss it. if we didn't have it.

It's not so much the next day delivery that I use it for, more the convenience of being able to order an item under £20 (as most of my orders are).

I often opt for the £1 credit which my sons uses to watch movies.

I treated myself to a fire stick on black Friday so I can watch upstairs as well.

I keep meaning to investigate the free kindle library but struggle to find the books

For 6.50 a month I think it is well worth the money.

There are lots to borrow, millions probably, but you can only borrow one at a time.

I use Prime a lot, plus have relatives on Amazon Household so they get the free delivery and Prime moves (I also have a Firestick)

Where I live, an increasing amount of stuff is on Prime same-day.

Also have an Amazon Echo, so get the 2M tunes on Prime Music.

Yes I forgot to mention The Echo, my latest toy and the vast amount of music I can ask it for, all for free.

I am also a Prime member but I find it is always worth checking 'other sellers' and also on ebay if you're not in a hurry for something as 'Prime' items are very often significantly more expensive.
