The Offer
Direct link to offer (our affiliate link. Not everybody is targeted and Amazon Fresh is only in certain areas)
- Amazon is offering a free trial to Amazon Fresh and $30 off your first order when you enter the promo code AMEXFRESH. Remember to cancel your free trial or you will be charged $14.99 per month. Order needs to be at least $30 or the minimum order amount in your delivery area, whichever is higher.
The Fine Print
- Valid until December 31st, 2018
- Offer valid for first time order
- Must use an American Express card to pay
Our Verdict
The reader who sent this in was targeted, but the offer still didn’t work properly for them so they had to chat with Amazon to get the credit applied. Normally this deal (well, similar deals) have a $100 minimum spend requirement, this one is $30 or the minimum order amount in your delivery area (usually a maximum of $50). Keep in mind enrolling in the free trial means you’ll be billed $14.99 per month after the free trial ends. Fingers crossed you are targeted and it’s $30 off $30.

DISCOVER30 worked for me to give $30 off first order with discover card.
Is there a link for that offer? And does it come with the free trial as well?
Here’s the link, it doesn’t seem to work though and didn’t even when I clicked on it from the banner:
https://www.amazon.com/b/ref=s9_acss_bw_cg_10off50_1a1_w?node=19485064011&bbn=10329849011&plattr=SWPAFTSS&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=merchandised-fresh-search-3&pf_rd_r=VPFVE68KQK4VPCNVKQG5&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1e1e0edb-37f3-41d9-b1da-449695477693&pf_rd_i=10329849011
In other words, it seems to just give an empty page.
Here’s what the page looks like for me:

I DID sign up for the free trial after seeing the banner, and then the $30 worked for me with the DISCOVER30 code.
I didn’t see any confirmation of this working until I tried it, though.
Sorry, last post.
Here is the banner that prompted me to try the code (despite the link which I posted previously not really leading me to a clear T&C; in my case, it seems to have worked fine although my desired delivery window is not till tomorrow so I haven’t received the products themselves yet):

EDIT: Here is another banner showing the Amazon Fresh context:

Chicago minimum free delivery amount is $35, so pretty good
$30 off $30 order, $35 minimum for free delivery. Bay Area.
no go for me in philly
It just worked for me in Philly. $30 off a $33 dollar order. Longtime Prime but first time Fresh order.
I got it, SF bay area. $35 minimum for free delivery. $5 for $35 of groceries is awesome, thanks DoC!
Worked for me. Thanks Will! Signed up for free trial and applied coupon to a $35 order without issues.
Not targeted. Been a Prime member since probably 2011… Such ridiculousness
I’m not eligible. Wish I were though. They have a lot of Gardein products the local stores do not have.
I was targeted but code wasn’t working. Got on chat, they asked if I had tried a different code (AMEX30 – also didn’t work), then said offer is expired, and offered $20 promo credit. I insisted the offer I’m seeing now says $30 off, they escalated, gave $30 promo certificate. At checkout, $30 auto-deducted, labeled as “Courtesy credit”.
Couldn’t get it to apply here in SF via mobile or desktop. Eventually contacted customer service through chat, and they agreed to refund me $30 to give me the offer. Hurray!
So.. you weren’t targeted, and complained to the poor guys in India that you weren’t targeted?
