Full-timers spending our winter months in the lower United States which has extremely "hard water". Very simple to re-generate. We go approximately 3 weeks before needing to re-gen...depending on the water hardness.

A food dehydrator for the rare times that I'm near a plug.
I make my own jerky and it's awesome to have while out hiking.

Not sure, it has been a while. The last 7 items ordered online were found for less than Prime.

Back in February of 2016 we installed an upgrade kit for a three speed fan and LED light for the stove in the kitchen. It is worth every penny we spent; $199. Very powerful and the light is about two to three times brighter than the original.

Probably the best RV item was the surge protector. Although as far as Amazon.ca goes this year alone we have had 22 orders so far. Reason being our nearest Home Depot/Walmart is a 3 hr. round trip. Kind of a trade off for peace and quiet. I guess we should have bought shares way back when.

Amazon is not my go to place I research pricing from several dealers. Many RV parts I fine PPL Motor Homes to have great pricing and service.

We've bought many favorite things for our trailer that were not bought on Amazon. The one thing I can think of are battery caddies. AA, AAA and 123's (for some of my flashlights). Better than having them roll around in a drawer in a ziplock bag. I use them in my bugout bag, too. Handy little buggers.

If you purchase from www.smile.amazon.com they donate a portion to The Semper Fi Fund or another selected charity of your choice. Kudos to Amazon for that.

Probably the best thing from amazon has been,
The illumibowl. Truly.
Saw it on shark tank. Thought it was perfect for us. Although I modified it to Velcro under the cabinet for more sanitary install. It's perfect as we have a pocket door from bedroom to bath, with large gaps. Turning on the bath light at night makes The bedroom way too bright.
It's a soft single led that throws just enough light to see, but not too bright to blind, or wake anyone up.
It's the simple things in life.

Camco Gen-Turi and extension kit. 16 years old now and just works. It easily transferred to the exhaust pipe on the new toy hauler. On the old trailer with the generator running on propane, the exhaust smelled like propane and getting it up and away from the campsite(or neighbor's campsite) was great. And while the cost is not justified for only this benefit, it does quiet the generator a little.

I just bought my Travel Trailer and of course I needed a lot of stuff. The dealer, gave us $50 to spend in the store(what store?), and they are way over priced. So far I have purchased off of Amazon:
10' sidewinder sewer hose support
Leveling scissor jack socket
Master Lock Coupler Lock
Dogbone
X0Chock Wheel stabilizer
Adjustable water regulator
Water Filter
Lynx Levelers
Motorola two-way radios

Regardless of their prices you should use the credit, otherwise it will just be your loss.

Bingo. You paid for that store credit. Since I work at a dealership I can get stuff CHEAP and overnight without a prime membership. My latest was my 30A hard wired EMS. Cheaper through my parts department than Amazon.
