I comparison shop almost religiously. Vendor sites are oftentimes more expensive and add shipping on top of that. BB, Walmart, etc. have similar prices but most times it's actually third party marketplace bullshit using these big name sites as a shittier Amazon.

Prime doesn't matter so much for me, but 5% on all of my purchases with the Amazon credit card is definitely worth it.
