I have £25 odd worth of goods in my basket. Yesterday this qualified for free delivery. Today the minimum order for free delivery is £35.

Has it gone up for everyone or just me?

Seems the case for me as well.

I guess they want everyone sucking on the Prime teat, even if that delivery sounds a bit shakier than before.

That's the link I got. I wasn't sure it wasn't personalised as it still shows as £25 on some help pages. Hence me checking:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/b?node=14342385031

https://www.amazon.co.uk/b?node=27173177031

I guess the few orders I make will become even more infrequent.

Thanks. I found this useful post there:

I use the collection and locker services which has no minimum basket size.
I didn't know that. Thought I'd try checking out again and coincidentally (or not) instead of aggressively offering me free Prime delivery it's taken me to a page to confirm delivery address including free delivery to a local Amazon locker.

I had no idea either. I may ditch prime too as my nearest locker is just 5 minutes walk away and I've stopped watching Prime Video because I hate their adverts

Since I did away with Prime about a year ago, I have been adding a bottle of booze on to small orders to get me over the £25 without realising that the locker has always been free delivery biggrin

I've found certain items that should be free delivery are only free delivery when sent to a pick up point.

Considering many websites have a minimum of £50 or even £100 spend for free delivery, £35 seems very reasonable imo.

Just sign up for the prime trial. Cancel it when the stuff is delivered. They will allow you to sign up again in a few weeks time.

Between the wife and myself we probably have the free prime trial about 8 months of the year. Been doing this for years now.

I had prime and used it loads, got rid of prime and suddenly stopped buying random crap

Ditch them!
