Rebecca Wadsworth has a “love/hate relationship” with Amazon Prime.

She and her husband spend between US$1,000 (RM4,682) and US$2,000 (RM9,365) a month on Amazon, charging it to their Amazon credit card. They buy a wide range of items – body wash, shampoo, vitamins, dog food, even clothing and shoes – and packages arrive at their Philadelphia home several times a week.
