Hi all,

I'm new here, and just wanted to add my experience. I was able to get a 19.99 skin and used a promotion code with no problems...so I guess that works.

Now, on the other hand, GPS offer did not show on my Kindle. Since my GPS does not calibrate properly (I've had it for over 6 years so it served me well), I thought I'd like to take advantage of the offer. A while ago, when I just got the Kindle, one of the offers was missing so CS rep credited my account for the value of the offer (I think it was 10$ for $20 gift card) without any problems. I called CS to inquire about the missing GPS offer and was given quite a bit of run around. At one point, the CS rep even stated she was not aware of this offer so I have to quote the Amazon web site that had it listed. To make the long story short, I asked to speak to the supervisor, and after a lengthy wait and some explaining I got $20 credit to my account.
So, if you have an offer missing, call CS and be persistent - while they may not have a way to push the offer specifically to your Kindle (at least that's what the CS was claiming), they can still give you credit.
Hope this helps...
Good info! And welcome to the forum!

Well I feel kinda gypped. The only book I would want off the Visa offer is Catching Fire but I bought it last week for the June 22nd $10 gift card offer. If I knew this was gonna come up only a week later I would've bought something else to count towards the $10.

You could use the offer for the next two books in the series.

Do people who got this offer when they first came out get it again? Just wondering ... I just got my KSO but I'm wondering if at some point, the 'new' offers I'll get won't be available to me anymore since I got it in the past, or if I'll be able to take advantage of even the repeat offers?
Thanks!

Yes, it's a different list and I have taken advantage of both (and the other non-visa $10 offer and two $20 gc offers).

Since one person here counted up 4 of these images on his Kindle, I wonder if there will be four offers (or if it was an admash campaign image that he saw).

Stupid question that the answer is probably no, but has anyone tried stacking the coupons from two devices? I mean, like you own two KSO and got different coupon code for, let's say the $10 off video games. Will you get $20 off? The terms says "limit one per device", but what if you have two devices? Anyone tried this?

EDIT: Nvm, tried it. What happens is that both your coupons are used up, but you only get one discount.

EDIT 2: Oh, it didn't get "used up", the second time I placed an order, I got the promotion again. Also, just want to point out that there's no minimum order for the $10 video games promo. If you order a $10 game or accessory, it's free. I got a free charger.

That stinks

I used two coupons but on two separate orders for 2 different video games for my kids. Both the UPS driver and my husband are going to start getting annoyed with all my money 'saving' going on from having this KSO! LOL

I know! Seems Amazon knew what they were doing when they launched the KSO, huh?

For those of you who already had and used the Buy a Kindle book using your Visa and get a $10 credit the first time the offer came around, did you spend over $10 on the book you purchased? The current offer says you have to purchase at least one book but doesn't give a dollar amount you have to spend. Can you spend less than $10 and still get the $10 credit?

Also, for those who took advantage of the offer the first time around how long did it take to get your $10 credit and can you use it on anything you want?

It doesn't matter how much the book is (get that one under $4 and you make $6+ even if you don't read the book).

You'll get the book "by" the end date (aug 21 in this case) and it works on anything sold by amazon (not on agency title kindle books, but it does on non-agency books).
