$99 Amazon Prime starting March 20, $30 Office Depot Plink Cap, and a Small VRC Change

According to the Wall Street Journal (article), Amazon will raise the price of their Prime Membership from $79 to $99 starting March 20.  If your subscription renews after that date, you will be charged the new subscription price.  Luckily, Dan’s Deal has all the details here.  Dan shows you how you can “gift yourself” a year of Amazon Prime.  You can gift yourself another year of Amazon Prime here.

If you are new to Amazon Prime, you can try a 30 day free trial here.

I almost forgot to mention, you can take advantage of this trick to give Amazon Prime to family members for free here.
