FREE/BARGAIN - Audiobooks - 2015

Doctor Who

Don't forget to check your public library for free Doctor Who titles. OverDrive has quite a selection -- 661 audiobooks & 5,407 ebooks -- but it's up to your library as to which ones they'll carry.

I checked both of mine library overdrive accounts. One is a library only account and one is a Ontario, Canada library account. Neither have any Doctor Who books or audiobooks.

The issue is that Audible takes purchases out of the your last coupon applied, not the oldest or next to expire. So, if you have an expiration coming up, you often lose a coupon that should not expire for some time (almost a month, this time around).

I now try to make sure I spend down to the pennies when any coupon is about to expire, so when it all disappears, it is no great loss.

I just go ahead and spend my entire balance before the earliest expiration, too. It's not worth the nuisance of a phone call to stretch it out. Ideally, I'd like to hang onto it in case there's a daily deal that appeals, but the reality is that I never want it anyway.

LearnOutLoud Free Audiobook of the Month -- exp 31 Jan

• FREE - The Science of Getting Rich -- Wallace D Wattles (pub 1910)

This book is a practical manual. It is intended for the men and women whose most pressing need is for money; who wish to get rich first, and philosophize afterward. It is for those who have, so far, found neither the time, the means, nor the opportunity to study this matter deeply, but who want results and who are willing to take the conclusions of science as a basis for action, without going into all the processes by which those conclusions were reached.

It is expected that the reader will take the fundamental statements upon faith, just as he would take statements concerning a law of electrical action if a Marconi or an Edison publicized them; and, taking the statements upon faith, that he will prove their truth by acting upon them without fear or hesitation. Every man or woman who does this will certainly get rich; for the science herein applied is an exact science, and failure is impossible. For the benefit, however, of those who wish to investigate philosophical theories and so secure a logical basis for faith, I will also herein cite certain authorities.

This probably isn't new for this forum, but here's a link to audiobooks that are currently free on audible.com.

Thanks - actually, there are over 40 free titles available from Audible and linked in the OP; including the two English titles in your link. Podcasts are discussed in the Audiobook Discussions Forum.

For those of you like me, who automatically pass over LearnOutLoud's featured free audiobooks because they are usually LibriVox (non-professional narration), this one is not a LibriVox.

Is this one just for new members, or does it also work for "new members" who have cancelled previously?

Also just want to say a big thanks for the work going in to these threads, I was following the previous one and it's been very useful.

Both new offers say for new members only; but which new members is anyone's guess. All you can do is to try it out. I tried it and it didn't work for me; but that doesn't mean it won't work for other former members. Sometimes I get them and other times I don't. These promos are definitely a big YMMV.

YW - thanks

With all of the freebies that you've gotten out of Audible, tubemonkey, the upper management at Audible probably has you blacklisted. ha
