Offers display on the Kindle screensaver and on the bottom of the home screen when not in use—they don’t interrupt reading." - not you *can* get special offers or you *can* opt to remove them.

This was going through your link.
How very odd. I see two large rectangular boxes immediately below the price: "With Special Offers" and "Without Special Offers". Just the same as the selections for size, colour, etc, that you get with clothes. That's with both Firefox on my PC and Safari on my iPad.
