Which is good, as they often have short hidden expiry dates. And as most digital stuff is on 1 click, you can trust the system to use your credits before taking your coins or your real money.
Coins are a failed experiment, no longer promoted, no giveaways. Can't buy books with them.
there was a time when i got several hundred coins from giveaways. I spent all but 25 left over ones. As I had no need to buy other apps, I used some like karma, I.e which developer shall i support kind of thing. I had 2 amazon accounts with spare coins so I bought CC twice
I understand that. Their site has a bug - it asks if you want to pay in coins, verifies that you want to spend coins, and then uses digital credits instead. They need to tell you up front that you have a digital credit that will be used first. Or just don't frigging verify that you want to use coins when it won't let you!

Not Amazon...the publishing industry.

Movie companies allow their products to be sold at any price, since they sell the product to the retailer, who then sells for whatever they want. The big 5 publishers won't even let retailers like Amazon sell eBooks...the retailer is just a storefront that the publisher uses to sell the eBook to the customer.

There's a new $5 credit for Subscribe & Save being offered when you choose "no-rush shipping" in the U.S.:

Quote:

Choose from thousands of eligible products in the Subscribe & Save store and set up a convenient recurring delivery with free shipping. The credit will automatically be applied at checkout when you create a subscription with Subscribe & Save. Any remaining credit will be applied to future subscription orders.

I had $25 in digital credits for taking slow shipping. I told my husband-it was gone in 3 days (on vacation)

Question: you only get the credit if there an option that says "no rush shipping", correct? If the only options are free two day shipping and free shipping, choosing free shipping does not give you any credit (except for being nice to the workers and environment).

Exactly so. You only get no-rush credit if that's one of the shipping options.

Just a reminder to check the expiration date(s) of your "no-rush shipping" digital credits. Some expire today, February 28, 2017. Use 'em or lose 'em...

Right on!

I got tired of all the hoops you had to jump through. If they would give me 1 thin dime per order I wouldn't demand the 2 day shipping just because it was there. I might make $10 USD a year and would save Amazon far more.

As of now give me my 2 day shipping!

I qualify.

I wonder what kind of no-rush credits they'll offer for this option?

Today's the day to order. If you use Amazon Smiles, 5% of your order goes to the charity you specified when you set up the account.
