I can think of only a few times I've ordered a product from a non-prime store due to a lower price.
We've had prime for about 4 years now, my wife uses it for almost all her text books and stuff for school. She ordered something about a week ago and it got delivered on a Sunday. And like you occasionally she will order something off prime because it's still cheaper with shipping.
