I don't follow audiobooks much, and this doesn't seem like a great deal to me, but I don't really have a good feel for what is or isn't a great audiobook deal, so I'm posting it anyway - YMMV!
I had a little banner appear for me this morning when looking at Kindle books, and when I clicked through I got to this:
Quote:
Save $30 on Annual Membership and get an Echo Dot for $0.99
Prime Members: Get 12 months of membership and 12 audiobooks upfront for just $119.50. After 12 months, Audible is $149.50/year. Cancel online anytime.

The link to this page is:

When I then clicked on the "Get this Deal" button, I got to this:
Quote:
Get $30 off Audible Annual Membership + a $0.99 Echo Dot
Limited Time Offer: Sign up for Annual Membership and get a credit redeemable for a $0.99 Echo Dot (3rd Gen).
Instructions detailing how to use your Echo Dot credit will be emailed.

After 12 months, continue for $149.50 per year. Cancel online anytime.
Terms and Conditions apply.

And when I clicked to the T&Cs, I got this:

Offer Terms and Conditions
Offer available until July 31, 2019 at 11:59PM PT or while supplies last. Offer available only to Prime members who are not currently Audible members. For the first year of your Audible membership, you will be charged the discounted price of $119.50. After your first year, your Audible membership will continue until cancelled at the then current full price (currently $149.50/yr) with your designated credit card or another available card on file. Cancel anytime by visiting the Account Details page. The Amazon.com account that you used to sign up for your membership will also receive a credit (within 48 hours after sign up) redeemable for an Echo Dot (3rd Generation) device at the discounted price of $0.99 plus applicable taxes. The promotional credit will automatically be applied to eligible items at checkout and expires at 11:59PM PT, 14 days from the date the promotional credit is applied to your account. Once you have received your discount credit, you forfeit your right to redeem any further discount on an Echo Dot device you have already purchased. Offer only applies to products sold by Amazon.com or Amazon Digital Services LLC (look for "sold by Amazon.com" or “sold by Amazon Digital Services LLC” on the product detail page). Products sold by other third-party sellers or other Amazon entities will not qualify for this offer, even if "fulfilled by Amazon.com" or "Prime Eligible." The offer is valid for new items only and cannot be applied to previous purchases. Shipping charges and taxes may apply to the full value of discounted and promotional items. If any of the products related to this offer are returned, your refund will equal the amount you paid for the product, subject to applicable refund policies. Unless an Amazon Gift Card is the stated benefit of the promotion, promotional codes or credits (including those placed directly in accounts) may not be redeemed for Amazon Gift Cards. Offer is limited to one per customer and account and may not be combined with other offers. This offer is non-transferable and may not be resold. Audible reserves the right to modify or cancel the offer any time. If you violate any of these terms, this offer will be invalid.

So now you know everything I could click to

, and you can make up your own mind. Also, not sure if this is targeted, other than you have to be a Prime member (doesn't really look like it, but who knows), so again YMMV...
