Random Tip: Amazon Items Under $1

Did you know that if you search for “items under $1” on Amazon, you’ll get… a bunch of random stuff not under $1… but also many items indeed $1 and under? If you click on the checkbox to the top left, you can list only Prime-eligible items. As long as you buy things in separate orders but close together, they’ll usually ship together with Prime but each purchase will process separately on your credit card. These can be useful for:

Rewards checking accounts that require a minimum 10 or 15 transactions per month. Any situation where you need multiple, separate purchases, like some bank bonuses or certain debit or credit card rewards programs. Cheap items to reach the upper tier of Subscribe & Save 10%/15% savings when you get to 5+ items. Sometimes you just find decent deals on stuff you need.
