    They are having a Prime day are they?

    Ahh! I remember Prime...
    PRIMOS on an 850 I think or was it 9550...
    (Prime) Information and Connections with some horrid spreadsheet called 20/20.
    Removable platters - that held about 10Mb per disk.

    It's on offer now, and I didn't think the discount was compelling. But I guess if you were buying one anyway, save a few quid why not.

    EDIT: the one deal I did want, 1 1TB Samsung SSD, I missed :-(

    I bought a prime stick for £19 in March and it's fab.

    The price went up to £35 mostly, since, but has been at £23ish on a couple of occasions for some reason.

    I don't see that there are many great deals today though, unless you want one of the 3 things that are heavily reduced.

    The problem I've found with being a prime member is that I've become obsessed with using it. I could look at something I want to buy. A non-prime seller has it for £15 plus £5 delivery. A prime seller has it for £23 with free delivery. I think "I've paid for Prime, so I'm using it".

    That's how much they were to prime members back in March.
