It’s another month, and with it we have a new selection of Kindle First options for Prime members. As before, you can select one of the six available pre-release e-books and start reading it immediately. Almost all of these end up in Kindle Unlimited, so if you have a membership there (short term or longer term) you can eventually read them all.
3 lbs of Sea-Salt Roasted Almonds for $13
Almonds are healthy for you, and some roasting with sea-salt can make them more fun and snacky. Further more, they are on sale at the moment! Three pounds (48 ounces) of Amazon’s house brand “Happy Belly” are on sale for $13 at amazon.com, or slightly less if you do one of those “Subscribe and Save” things.
On top of that, these are Made in American almonds, from the Central Valley in California! “Happy Belly” products are restricted to Prime members, yet another benefit of signing up for the benefits-loaded service.
Kindle First options for April 2018 are here: pick 1 out of 6
One of the signs that a new month is here is the arrival of a fresh six packs of e-books under the Kindle First umbrella. Well, the new name is “Amazon First Reads” because they are actually “Hardcover First” but Prime members can get one of those six for FREE in the Kindle format…
Toothbrush $4 Samples arrive at Amazon
You can’t have toothpastes without toothbrushes, so of course Amazon has also launched a toothbrushes “Amazon Sample” promotion. The price here however is $4 per sample instead of the more common $2.
Toothpaste $2 Samples arrive at Amazon!
IF you are a fan of toothpastes, or you want to try out different brands and flavors and ingredients, and IF you are a Prime member, you are in luck! Toothpastes have now began invading the $2 Amazon Samples…
Kindle First choices for March 2018 are here!
Kindle First, now reborn as “Amazon First Reads” because the hardcovers come out before the ebooks for the general population, is back with another month of choices for Prime members. As before, six pre-release ebooks are available for Prime readers to select from. You get one for free and read it right away, while the rest of the universe waits for it until the beginning of the following month.
The twist that is making it “First Reads” is that you also (and definitely optionally) buy the hardcovers of these books for $10 or less…
15% off Amazon Luxury Grooming Sample boxes
Everything’s possible at Amazon! Even clip-on coupons on their Sample boxes! That’s right, the sample boxes. Currently Amazon has two men’s grooming boxes and each one of them has a 15% off green clip-on coupon on them!
So the $17 Sample Box becomes $14.45 after you clip the green coupon, while the $20 Sample Box drops to $17. You get free shipping regardless. I believe these ship separately, and they have only one shipping option (standard shipping), so you cannot make any adjustments or get the $1 digital credit on them.
Prime only: 24 Roses for $20 at WF with coupon
Now that Amazon owns Whole Foods, they can offer Prime member promotions there as well. Good until Valentine’s day, the barcode coupon you see on the Promotional page can get you two dozen roses for $20 at Whole Foods, instead of their regular price of $25. You have to be a Prime member for this promotion. You don’t have to print the coupon, you can simply show it at the register using your phone or other digital device (just don’t take a desktop computer with a CRT monitor – it won’t work).
Kindle First choices for February 2018 are here!
February is here, and long before you celebrate Valentine’s or Chinese New Year, there’s a new round of Kindle First. Or as Amazon likes to call it now, “Amazon First Reads” because they changed how the program works. More specifically, they added to the program. The old way still continues, Prime members pick one out of six pre-release e-books for FREE and can start reading it right away. The addition is that you can also buy one of those books as …hardcover prints.
Kindle First rebrands to First Reads, still offers free one out of six
It’s a new month, it’s December 2017, and one of the many things a new month brings is a new installment of the Kindle First program, a benefit for Prime members that allows them to pick one “kinda pre-release” e-book from a choice of six, and read it right away. All these six e-books will be officially released January 1st in 2018 for everyone. Non-Prime members can purchase one of the six for $2.
Kindle First November 2017 options are up!
Another month has arrived, and with it we have six more previously unreleased e-book choices for Prime members as part of the Kindle First program. As usual, you can pick one of the six for FREE and start reading it right now. The rest of the ebooks you can buy starting December 1st. Most of them will end up in Kindle Unlimited.
