Having eight children, some of which are young adults, I am often learning new things. One thing I recently learned about is “streaming.” Is this term new to you too? It can really help a family to save money. Read on to find out how…

What is streaming?
It is usually referred to when talking about streaming media. Wikipedia describes it as, “Streaming media is multimedia that is constantly received by and presented to an end-user while being delivered by a provider. Streaming generally refers to the situation where a user watches digital video content or listens to digital audio content on a computer screen and speakers (ranging from a smartphone, through a desktop computer to a large-screen home entertainment system) over the Internet. With streaming content, the user does not have to download the entire digital video or digital audio file before they start to play it.”
How Amazon Prime can save you money in the UK
You can do a 30 day Free Trial to see what it is all about and how much money you may save. The sign up is risk free and you can change or cancel your membership at anytime.
There are many benefits in this one membership! Here are some ways you might save money…
You can do streaming. That is the Prime Video part of it. That can replace a subscription you may presently have to watch movies or TV shows on. Some subscription services cost more than an annual subscription to Amazon Prime ALONE!
With Amazon Prime, you get free and fast shipping, which can save you on transportation costs. Sometimes the products on Amazon are less expensive than you would pay locally so that can save you money too.
If you are a homeschool teacher (like me) or reader, you can get many FREE Kindle eBooks so can save you a lot of money annually, for sure.
You can download or “stream” music that it is “ad-free” and there are about 2 million titles that are included with Prime, at no additional charge for those titles, which is another savings.
If you currently pay your smartphone provider a fee each month to keep your photos in storage for you, you will love the unlimited photo storage that is included in the Amazon Prime membership for no additional charge.
Those savings alone are enough to help Amazon Prime to earn it's keep and pay for itself in savings, but read on for more details and additional savings.

Watching movies with your family or friends on weekends is probably the best form of entertainment one could have in this modern era. Well, the only problem is that you must be ready to burn a hole in your pocket or wallet due to the hefty prices of tickets at theatres. In addition to this, it’s not possible for everyone to take time out of this work schedule and head over to the theatre or wait for your favorite Tv show or Movie to be aired on Television
