Using Subscribe & Save on Amazon.com

Today I want to share with you the details of how to use Subscribe and Save on Amazon.com. This is something I mention often because you can typically save 15% off Food and Diaper Purchases by using this option, but it also is a little confusing if you haven’t used this system before. Here’s a step by step guide to using Subscribe and Save.

Subscribe and Save is a subscription service that will automatically ship the products you purchase every 1, 2, 3, or 6 months. However you can cancel this at any time with no obligation.

1. When shopping you want to look for the blue subscribe and save boxes. These boxes will let you know that you can save 15% off your purchase by using the subscribe and save option.

2. Add the item to your cart by choosing your desired frequency and clicking the Subscribe Now button (This is below the normal add to cart button). I like to choose 6 months to give me plenty of time to cancel if I decide I don’t want to continue shipments.

3. Enter your Credit Card Information – You can still use your Amazon Credit or Swagbucks to purchase, the Credit Card information is simply for the Subsequent purchases that will be sent to you if you don’t cancel your order.

4. You will then be able to review your order and you will see the Subscription Discount from using the Subscribe and Save Option at this point. Also, you can see that my Amazon.com credit from Swagbucks was applied to my order. You also get Free Shipping with Subscribe and Save regardless of the amount purchased.

Canceling your order:

1. When canceling your Subscription to Subscribe and Save you will want to go to your account page. The easiest way to find this is by going to the homepage of Amazon.com and looking above the search bar.

2. Under Order Options Click on the link for Manage Current Subscriptions.

3. You will see a list of your Subscribe and Save Subscriptions. Use the Cancel Subscription Button to end your subscription.

Once you have done this process once you realize just how easy it is to use the Subscribe and Save option. Like I said I’ve started using this more and more. The only thing you have to remember is you have to wait till your order has shipped to cancel the subscription. Other than that there are no phone calls or sales people to deal with. It’s a great service and a great way to save a little extra money!
