Extended again for April. If you’ve used it before and successfully use it again, let us know in the comments.
Reposting as the offer has been extended, if you’ve already used the deal I don’t think you’ll be able to do it again as they’ve just extended the expiry date rather than posting a new offer.

Our Verdict
Pretty good deal if there is an item you actually need to re-order and have an Alexa compatible device and have Amazon prime (that’s a lot of IF’s, but I suspect a lot of readers fall into this category). As always, big thanks if you use our Amazon link for any of your Amazon purchases. Don’t forget these other ways to save on Amazon purchases:

- Use the JetBlue portal for 3x points (see what codes here)

- Possible 15% Off Amazon.com (Up To $1,000 & Can Be Used For Multiple Orders)Â when you change your address
- Create Amazon Baby Registry – Get Free Welcome Box & Up To 15% Off Amazon
Although the deal has expired, the issued promo code is ALEXAREORDER, if someone wants to try. Looks like they whitelist the accounts that reordered through Alexa, as I was able to use on my main account (which I used for reordering) but not the household account.
Curious to know if gift cards work on this. Not amazon gift card but third party ones (restaurants, etc) I haven’t ordered a restaurant card yet. Likely will in the next day or two
Keep us updated
I just tried reordering a Starbucks card, so we’ll see
Any news, Liz?
Tried re-ordering a third party gift card but Alexa is stubborn or doesn’t want to reorder. I’ve never re-ordered with Alexa before, does she state ‘reordering X’. Anytime I’ve said re-order Amazon gift card… she just states ‘amazon gift card, would you like to buy it?’
FYI, Amazon iPhone app now has Alexa built in. I wonder if it will work with these types of offers (they have one for $5 promotional credit if purchase $25 GC with Alexa also):

Looks like app probably won’t work for promo:
“Purchase must be for $5 or more and must be made using Alexa voice shopping on an Amazon Echo, Echo Dot, Amazon Tap, Amazon Fire TV, or Fire tablet device by 11:59 p.m. (PT) April 30, 2017.”
