Does anyone else feel restricted because of shipping fees?

I know that many of us have ditched Amazon, but it's hard to ignore their free shipping policy.

When you're looking for Canadian products sold by Canadian companies, and have to pay $10-$20 extra for shipping because it's not available locally, it's like a premium on top of a premium.

And yes, some places offer free shipping past a certain amount (usually well over $100), which just incentivizes buying extra stuff you don't need.

I mean, shit, you can get products shipped from China for free, so why can't we offer free or very low cost shipping within Canada (via Government incentives)?

Does anyone have any tips to ease this pain point?

Whole Foods and Audible are owned by Amazon btw.

Libro.fm and audiobooks.com are Canadian alternatives to Audible.

Well.ca and local businesses are Canadian alternatives to Amazon. If you really need that low-quality junk (press X to doubt), cut out the middleman and purchse directly from China with Aliexpress instead of Amazon. Amazon sellers usually just markup and resell from Aliexpress/Alibaba anyways.

I wish other grocery stores with their own brands start doing this!

So someone on here suggested calling Amazon and closing your prime account and getting your whole year back, $109 for me. So I got curious what other services have I just cancelled but maybe I could get money back, turns out if you call Disney+ they will cancel and refund your account I paid through Apple so they will have to do their thing first but hopefully I will get refunded for that. I saw that I was also paying for Trilogy+ but I have cancelled that and have asked Apple to refund that.

Then I thought about what other services have I forgotten about, or are just set to not renew. I had transferred my domain to hosthero so that I could get a .ca address so I thought maybe I should check out wordpress, it has been cancelled but after getting past the dumb artificial intelligence I got a full refund!
