Our Verdict
This offer will be valid during the week leading up to Prime Day when there’ll already be some Prime Exclusive deals. Hopefully the deals will be good, and this 20% off will make them great. And you can do this deal once per day. It might be possible to stack further with one of the other deals, like the 20% off deal with Amex.

Hat tip to reader US
Super easy to qualify, just open the app on your phone, click the camera icon, point at basically ANY product around you and click start. Problem is the 20% off items (at least for today) are pretty lame…
Hopefully they get better!
Yeah for today (7/8/19), It only applied to an Asus Vivobook, a Polk in-ceiling speaker, and a TP-1200 router. Very limited selection
As always, if you didn’t need it before today, you don’t need it. No matter how good the deal is, it’s terrible if you weren’t already going to buy it.
more amazon nonsense
Don’t you want to help make Jeff Bezos even richer than he already is (the richest man on the planet) so he can sell you more and more stuff?
Don’t forget to use an account that you’ve never made an in-app purchase with… and I’d practice ahead of time to get used to using the features. Just a suggestion…John 3:16
Why do you say this? Because of the following? “Coupon only applies to your first purchase through the mobile shopping app from among the Prime day deals revealed.” I didn’t read that as your first ever in-app purchase but rather the first purchase of the day from among the revealed Prime Day deals which is made in the app.
Confusion is the essence of an Amazon deal. After reading it again… I believe your version is correct. Happy hunting. John 3:16
whats with your signature man? You some sort of missionary?
Just checkin’ boxes for admission
The camera features didnt work for me last year. Hopefully it does this time around (not keeping my hopes up)
