Open up doc in Excel or OpenOffice then in an blank cell type something like

=SUM(C1:C20)

change C1:C20 to where the cells with the amounts are located; here C is column letter and 1-20 are the rows.

$15,119.33 since my first order on 12.24.99

Some of it is for other people though who got in on my Prime benefits the last few years.

$5k for my home account. My work account is at least 50k which has me thinking I messed up my budget numbers for next year. *sigh* Now I know what I am doing at work tomorrow.

Fucking shit...

$14,902.68 since October 2002.

I've paid $925.58 in shipping in the past. Prime really is worth it.

I noticed that just summing the shipping column is incorrect. You have to take that value and subtract from promotions. For me it says $975 in shipping, but subtracting $400 in free shipping promotions I've only paid $586 in shipping over 11 years. I would have lost money with prime (assuming you don't care about 2 day shipping).

In the last year though I've spent $76 in shipping ($91 free shipping promotion), so as I use amazon more I get closer the break even point with prime.

Just over 2k, though a lot of that in the last 6 months. Funny, ever since I started working there I've been spending more money on the site. Guess I like the idea of paying myself while buying crap :D

Wow, you guys spend a lot here. I think I bought a Cranberries CD back in 1999. I don't remember my account info.
