$5 off your first order with Dash button (Prime only)

Amazon is trying to encourage all their Prime members to try out their new Dash buttons. If you purchase a dash button for $5, they will deduct $5 from your first purchase made with that Dash button. So it is a net zero transaction, assuming you can find something you want/need to order.

As of the time of writing, there are 29 different brands participating, a combination of household items (Tide, Hefty, Ziploc) and foods (Larabars, SmartWater, Orbit, Gatorade, etc).

Each Dash button can be used to order a variety of items from that particular brand. You select which one by using the Amazon app and connecting it to the Dash button through your Wifi network. For example, the Larabar Dash button has 42 different choices.

This is decidedly convenience over bargain, but since the first order is essentially free, it could be a fun thing to try out 🙂
