Call Me Maybe ~ Carly Rae Jepsen $0.25 Download (AND 19 More Summer Songs for 25 Cents Each)

Posted on July 2, 2012 | Leave a comment

Bookmark and Share

This week Amazon is discounting 20 of their favorite songs of summer to 25 cents!  The download selection includes Carly Rae Jepsen’s Call Me Maybe, Jason Mraz’s I’m Yours ~ even fun classics from Bob Marley, Otis Redding and more!  Pick any song on the list (here) for just $0.25 apiece, or if you want, grab the whole playlist for $5.

We found that not every song fits our music tastes (two thumbs-up for Amazon making this “pick and choose” friendly, without a discount savings penalty).

FREEBIE: Buy 3 Get 4th FREE Children’s Books (Includes Dr. Seuss, Bearenstein Bears and More)!

Posted on June 25, 2012 | 1 comment

Bookmark and Share

Amazon is running a fantastic Buy 3 Get 1 FREE Offer in their Children’s Book department.  There are literally thousands of books that qualify (and this special is on top of the already discounted price). To get the discount, you order any four eligible books and get the lowest-priced item free.  This is a great way to keep little ones busy on your next road-trip or stock-up on gifts for upcoming birthdays and other special days.

This 4 for 3 sale includes lots of great classics that you can mix & match including:

 

:: Dr. Seuss (Over 120 titles)

 

:: The Bearenstein Bears (over 25 titles)

 

:: Richard Scarry (Over 40 titles)

 

:: DK Publishing Picture Books (Over 800 Titles) 

How to get the Buy 3 Get 1 FREE Offer:

  1. Go here to see the entire list of qualifying 4 for 3 children’s books.  You can mix and match qualifying items from these lists if you’d like.
  2. Add 4 qualifying books to your cart and the lowest-priced item will be deducted from your order. Make sure to select Amazon.com only as the seller, as items from 3rd party sellers will not qualify.
  3. The discount shows up on the final checkout Review Your Order checkout screen. It will show up after you submit your mailing address, and before you place your order. Be sure to double check to see the discount applied in your cart before finalizing your order. The shopping screen will look something like this (click on the image to make it larger):

SAVINGS TIP: you’ll save the most by selecting 4 items that are about the same price. Most orders over $25 will qualify for FREE Shipping and will be sales-tax free, too!

Dads & Grads Sale: Up to 60% OFF GPS Units at Amazon

Posted on June 1, 2012 | Leave a comment
Bookmark and Share

Looking for the perfect Father’s Day or Graduation Gift?  For a limited time, pop over to this link to save up to 60% on Amazon’s GPS special sale. There are lots of great choices, but from our experience, we recommend you look for a GPS unit that includes lifetime map and traffic updates.  It generally doesn’t cost a lot more to add this feature (i.e. add $10 to the base cost for this model).  With all the construction changes happening around DFW, it is worth it to pay a little extra to stay up-to-date. 

Here is a sample of some of the great GPS deals we found that also include FREE Shipping (be sure to select Amazon as the merchant to get free shipping):

 

FREE Shipping Tip:  If you need your GPS unit faster than what the standard free shipping provides, you might want to consider a FREE 1-month trial of Amazon Prime which will get you FREE 2-day shipping on almost anything with no minimum order. There are other nifty benefits like unlimited instant streaming of thousands of movies and TV shows with Prime instant videos and FREE check-out of Kindle Books. Find out more here.

TODAY ONLY: If you were disappointed that you missed the Kindle Fire refurb deal a few weeks ago,  you might be happy to know that Amazon just kicked off a new deal today that allows you to get a certified refurbished Kindle with Wi-Fi for $49 (saves almost 40% OFF the new, non-refurbished price of $79). Do note that this is only available today, and is being offered in a limited quantity.

Here’s the scoop on how to get yours:

1. Go to Amazon’s Fort Worth Local Daily Deal’s site and buy a voucher for the Refurbished Kindle Wi-Fi for $49 (here).

Favorite Things: The Sound of Music (45th Anniversary Blu-ray/DVD Combo Limited Edition) 72% OFF

Bookmark and Share


Amazon’s Deal of the Day is for The Sound of Music 45th Anniversary Blu-ray/DVD Combo Limited Edition at 72% Off for $24.99 (Regular Retail is $89.99).  Do note that they were kind of sneaky with the pricing because if you spend $25 on Amazon, you’ll get free shipping.  Since it’s 1 penny shy of qualifying, it might benefit you to find something else from Amazon for really cheap  ~ like a song for 99 cents to get the free shipping.

Go here to learn more   This offer has EXPIRED, but Amazon still has a more streamlined 3-DVD/Bluray set ~ without the fancy box and booklets ~ as an option for $19.49.  Click here).

You do have to be an AmazonLocal.com subscriber to get this deal (sign up here).  Also, note that there will be limited-quantities of these gift cards available, so you will want to buy your card as early as you possibly can tomorrow, March 20, to take advantage of this deal. I fully expect them to sell out.

Amazon has run some really hot offers this month including this $25 deal for TurboTax!  If you plan to use this do-it-yourself tax software this year, you might not want to wait on this one, as the price will unlikely stay this low for very long.

For a limited time, Amazon is offering TurboTax Deluxe for PC or Mac for $25 (50% OFF, MSRP $49.99) ~ it’s even cheaper than the “basic” version of this software!  This is the same version that is currently selling at Costco at their discounted box price of $39.99. We’ve looked around at our favorite discounters and can’t find anyone who has beat this price yet.

Go here to get the TurboTax download version for PC

Up to 65% OFF Select Refrigerator Water Filters ~ Whirlpool, Kitchenaid, Kenmore, Maytag & More (No Coupon Needed)

Posted on January 25, 2012 | Leave a comment

Bookmark and Share

Here’s a great deal if that pesky time-to-change-your-water-filter light is blinking on your refrigerator (or about to be)…

It is way past time for us to replace the water filters on our refrigerator, so it was a nice discovery to find that through January 31, Amazon is giving an extra 20% OFF refrigerator filter replacements for select Whirlpool, Kitchenaid, Kenmore,  Maytag, and Amana refrigerators.  That savings is on top of the current discounted price you’ll see from Amazon, bringing some of the filters to 65% OFF the retail price you would normally pay!

For my purchase, that meant I received from Amazon, 2 Water Filters for the same price as 1 from Sears  (that’s even after Sears discounted price!).

Buying Tip: Do note, that you won’t see the extra 20% discount subtracted from the selling price until you get to the final “Review Your Order”/Order Summary confirmation page (which is the last page you’ll see after you input your shipping and credit card details) ~ right before you actually approve the order to be placed.  It will look something like this (click picture to make it bigger):

Go here to view all the water filters that qualify for the extra 20% OFF sale.  The extra savings sale does expire January 31, 2012.

Pop over to this link to get FREE One-Day Shipping on thousands of products at Amazon ~ simply add the product to your shopping cart, select 1-Day Shipping, and they’ll apply the shipping discount at checkout. Do note that this offer is only good through tonight (or more specifically, December 22, 2011 at 2AM CST) on the items you’ll find at this link.

Here is a sample of some of the great deals we found that also included FREE Shipping with arrival tomorrow:

As always, most Amazon purchases are sales tax-free to Texas, too. I do love online shopping (especially at this time of year) ~ no waiting in lines and no parking challenges!

Find a product that doesn’t qualify for the FREE 1-day shipping? Check out Amazon’s FREE 1-month trial of Amazon Prime which will get you FREE 2-day shipping on almost anything with no minimum order.
