How do you actually get the low prices, and where can I find the day 2 links on the page? (I see them in post 1 in this thread, but I get regular prices, even when logged in)

I'm in the US and they are all showing as available and at the $6.95 price.

Thanks for the information! So I will have to recheck what is going wrong for me here.

I'm aware of all that and never said the free basic membership was still available.

Day 2 links haven't been posted to Audible yet. They will be later this morning. In the meantime, Audible wants you to follow the hints and find them yourself.

As to getting the sale prices, you need a paid membership or other memberships no longer offered.

The current clues seem easier than the first set. I had no idea about those.

I do not get the sales prices. No matter, I check almost all my audiobooks from the library. I feel bad for the authors sometimes, but then I remember that the library buys more copies than I would so it more than evens out.

Have you gone to their actual sales page? http://www.audible.com/mt/BeachcomberSale_Aug12 and you still don't get the discount?

What type of Audible account do you have?

I have a canceled Gold account, so I guess I'm just out of luck? A pity, I would have bought 5 books from them.

You can call them and ask for a promo offer to rejoin, then if you want to cancel, you can opt for a $10/year light member ship to get the member-only offers.

Thanks for posting the links every day, Obliv!

I think I'm going to get A Thousand Splendid Suns. It looks good and the ebook is $12.99 (Simon & Schuster). Even the used paperback at Amazon is going for $7.29.

Not trying to talk you out of buying it, but something else to consider is getting it from your library. It's available in both ebook (Kindle, EPUB, PDF) and audiobook (WMA) formats at some of the libraries I belong to.

How do you "hide" texts so they don't show right away?

I snagged that one the first day and started listening to it yesterday. I can't resist a cursed treasure. I'm enjoying it so far.

I'm tempted by this one, since I read The Kite Runner a few weeks ago and enjoyed it. Holding off to check if my husband wants it, since he's the primary consumer of audiobooks in our family and I could always read it instead.

Overdrive doesn't help me, since it only has WMA format which I can't use since I don't run Windows.
