I've never had Prime and I get free shipping 100% of the time.

You're not paying for lower cost shipping, you're paying to turn regular purchases you could wait a few extra days for into impulse buys.

Exactly this, and since Covid the 2-day has been about as fast as the “free with $35” option, and waiting encourages thrift anyway.

I only reactivate it when they give me a week free or for $1 and the additional cash back is worth it.

i cancelled prime over a year ago and i still get packages in the same time frame, i think once they nixed a lot of next day deliveries that it didnt matter anymore.

The downside is quality of products still keeps going downhill and not even mcmaster had the parts i needed.
