But if you goof, and post one with an affiliate tag in it, prepare to be dressed down publicly, even if the tag wasn't yours and didn't benefit you in any way...sigh!

My solution is simply to not post any links, and provide (hopefully) enough info so folks can go find the deal/article/whatever on their own, even though that's not as convenient for the average reader.
Although the thought did cross my mind as I read Harry's response, I can not see myself forgoing links altogether. I keep Amazon open in a tab when I'm online at home. I will just have to make sure that it is the tab I opened, and not one that was opened by a link I chose to click. It does mean, however, that any books I reference will most likely come directly from Amazon. I do prefer to get series info from B&N, as Amazon does not always include it, so I might link that as well. *shrug* I just don't like the added pressure of responsibility. I'm an honest person, who volunteers at my kid's school all day, every (school) day and likes to read. I don't make money from anything I do, but I like to be helpful when I can.
Anyway, it is what it is and I will do my best to follow the rules as I've always done.
