Brushing teeth many may consider a boring chore, but when you see the dentist bill for a crown or a root canal, you’ll see it as a financial savings task instead! And if you are too sleepy at night to brush vigorously, a powered toothbrush can do most of the work for you.

Which brings us to a limited time $10 off clip-on coupon at Amazon, it’s the new condition Philips Sonicare Essence+ rechargeable electric toothbrush going for $26 with free shipping after the clip-on coupon is factored in. The price is just over $25, so non-Prime members get free shipping too.

The color scheme, the “Mid Blue”, model HX3211/30 goes for this price. On the same listing there are two other colors that currently go for $4 more.

Note that both the prices of these and the coupon can change at an time. They are not a gold box deal, so there’s no preset amount of time. On the other hand, they could continue to be offered for days or weeks. Only Amazon’s bots know for sure 🙂

YMMV $3 Kindle store credit towards select ebooks

Check your Amazon emails if you are a Kindle ebook reader! You may have received an email that offers you a $3 store credit that can be used towards 28 specific ebook titles. The majority of these ebooks are $3.99 or $4.99, so you’d be getting one of them for 99c or $1.99, or free if you are “slow shipping credits” in your account.

All of them are “Kindle Unlimited” ebooks (which is probably what gives Amazon flexibility to do a promotion like this since the big media publishers are too uptight), but they are among the top rated or most read. I recognize a handful of them…

Remember, you can’t get the $3 off discount from the website above. You need to have receive an email from Amazon offering you this $3 off promotion…
