Someone else said they will do the same thing with prime if you don't order a lot.

Can confirm.

I only order off Amazon 4-5 times a year, and almost every time they offer me either a month free trial, a week free trial, or a month for $2.99.

I just say yes, then immediately go to the account page and set it to cancel at the end of the period instead of autorenewing.
