T-Mobile Tuesday freebies for August 23 (2016) revealed [updated]

UPDATE 8/23/16: Indeed, the Harper Collins e-book offer is one e-book per line, and the service delivering them is BookShout, the same e-book service T-Mobile used for their previous free e-cookbook. If you have more than one line on your T-Mobile account, you can get more than one free ebook per Bookshout account.

This post contains SPOILERS about the August 23 (2016) freebies that are part of the T-Mobile Tuesdays for their paying customers. Okay, this is not a TV show, so the spoilers are a joke, but the offers are not…

The scheduled offers feature the return of the Vudu $5.50 store credit, which is added to your account, and must be spent before Monday night of the next week, otherwise it evaporate in this air. You don’t have to use it for a movie rental, you can use it toward the purchase of a movie, or a TV episode or a TV season. It’s a store credit. The limit is one credit per Vudu account, so even if you have multiple T-Mobile lines, you can only add one $5.50 credit per week (when it is offered).

The new offer of the lot is Harper Collins books (presumably e-books since they are a lot cheaper to deliver). Per the teaser, we get one free book from a choice of ten. The previous time they did an ebook offer it was through Book Shout but I don’t know if Harper Collins will offer them through that or otherwise. I’m assuming you can pick a different ebook per line if you have multiple lines.

The other two offers are returnees as well, the $15 Lyft ride, and the small Wendy’s frosty. I haven’t done the Frosty in a while, all but one of the previous times I tried to redeem this, the cashier was utterly confused on what to do, and I felt bad for them, so I stopped trying to redeem it 🙁

PS: unless they were instructed by management to play dumb to discourage redemptions 🙂
