I get nothing at the "paperback sale" link, and Les Miz is regular price.

I am logged in, and the link works fine. I got an email from Audible about this sale earlier today.... I've had the Kissinger book On China on my wishlist for a while, and it's at $8.95. Decisions, decisions.....

Hmmmm, The Rook and A Discovery of Witches look to be right up my husband's fantasy alley. I can snag them both for a total of $5 out of pocket and use up the $10 credit Audible gave me this month. Or I can put that $10 towards extra credits which are on sale right now. Decisions, decisions...

We could get nasty. A 30 day trial membership and then clean up the low priced goodies. Though I don't tend to do these things. Though I might just sign up for real. Are the files DRMed or just regular MP3?

Audible files are Drmd but removal is relatively painless if you're inclined. |

Obviously you would use the free credits (you get 2 as an Amazon referral, too) for expensive books. What I mean is you spend money to buy the cheap ones and spend the credits on expensive ones. Can you buy something and keep the credits?

Absolutely when in the cart just tick off the credit box.

Since I'm a nonmember, all I ever see at Audible is "learn how to get this book for $7.49." This is beyond annoying. If I could see great sale prices, maybe I would decide to join. But always seeing the same "$7.49" is NOT an incentive.

Have you ever had a membership? If not, you could sign up for a 30-day free trial and get two credits for free. Then you'd be eligible for this sale.

Is anyone aware of a good deal for former members? All of the codes I found recently require a new account. If I could find a good deal I'd re-up.
