Current Kindles all $20 Off

Chances are someone already put this out there, but I didn't find it anywhere, and Amazon themselves are burying the lede in confusing copy. Top of the US front page right now tells you that you can get $20 store credit on a trade-in of other leading ereaders, but if you click through there's a button to apply a $20 discount on an order of any current Kindle.

And it apppears you then have to trade in another device, however they will let you get the discount ahead of time.

I'm not so sure you can get a discount regardless.

The discount seems independent from the trade-in offer. I saw the deal on Gizmodo:

Quote:

...you can also take $20 off an E-Ink Kindle or Kindle Paperwhite today, in addition to an optional trade-in bonus when you sell back an old e-reader, be it a Kindle, Kobo, Nook, or otherwise.

I had actually purchased a Paperwhite the night before, so I gave Amazon a call and after looking over the terms of the offer, they gave me $20 in store credit without any hassle. I'm pretty sure if you click the "apply discount" button and add a Kindle to your cart, you get the discount.

Oh, I see. Well, thanks for the confirmation.
