Our Verdict
This comes around every month, you might only be able to do it once per lifetime – not exactly sure how it works out if you’re targeted or not. Use a credit card that earns at a high rate on Amazon purchases to get a larger discount. Currently your best bet would be the Discover it, that is earning 5% cash back (and doubled for some as well).
As always, big thanks to everybody and anybody that uses our Amazon links to help support this site. It makes a big difference and definitely encourages both myself and Chuck to post more frequently when we are being rewarded by readers generosity.
It appears that this offer is only valid ONCE per account per lifetime. I was eligible on my new account, but not eligible on my older account in which I had previously redeemed a similar offer.
How quickly does the promotional credit come? I clipped the coupon and bought a $50 gift card and am waiting for the $10 credit.
Usually within a day from memory
Worked on 2 of 3 accounts in my family. 1 was not eligible, but that account has done this offer before.
“Unfortunately, you are not eligible for this offer.”
