Thanks for stopping by, but it appears you are using a (very) old address for my blog. I've moved to a Wordpress site and you'll need to update your bookmarks for Books on the Knob

Get $20 Off Select Vehicle GPS (KSO)

Update: This offer is back on my Kindle. Looks like it expired after only six hours, rather than the 4 days it should have and Amazon figured out how to send it back out, with proper dates. So, if you were wanting a new GPS, be sure to sign up before it disappears again!

This offer is for those with selected Kindle Wi-Fi with Special Offers or Kindle 3G + Wi-Fi with Special Offers only. Turn on your wireless, click Menu, Sync & Check for New Items, then on View Special Offers after the sync has completed. You should see this new offer:

Get $20 Off Select Vehicle GPS

Click on offer, then click on the link on the offer page sign up and get an email with the promotion code. Sign-up for this offer expires on June 25.

You'll get an email (right away), a link to the Special Offer GPS page and a promotion code to enter at checkout. Once you have the promotional code, you have until July 25 to complete your purchase. Like previous offers, this one requires you to use the full checkout process in order to enter your promotional code. Also, like all Amazon sales that use promotional codes, if you have a gift card balance, you must use it for the payment (if there is not a sufficient balance, then you can pick which credit card or other payment to use).

Once again, this offer can be used more than once per accounts, so long as you have more than one KSO registered:
4. Limit one promotional code per device.
Just click on the ad on each device to receive the individual promotion codes via email.

This particular offer, I wasn't sure if I would take advantage of (I have GPS on my phone and in my car, but hubby keeps wanting to upgrade his handheld GPS). Not that it matters, as this one appeared on my View Special Offers page, but once I clicked on it, I received an error message that the offer materials were no longer available. I don't know if it downloaded with a bad ending date and thought the offer had expired or if some of the offer files didn't download properly. In any case, my "choice" was limited to clicking OK and then the offer disappeared from the list. If this happens to you, be sure to call Kindle support (having this happen isn't on their list of "things that can go wrong" on the KSO offers, so they wrote up a ticket to send to their marketing and tech depts). For my trouble (and rather long times on hold), I did get a $20 credit on my account ... which I can use on anything at Amazon, not just the GPS!
