Buy a Mystery & Thriller Title for $1 (KSO)

If you have your Kindle with Special Offers, be sure to wake it up and check the Special Offers page. Today's deal, which you must sign up for by July 27, is any one of 100 Mystery & Thriller Titles for $1.

To take advantage of this offer:
  1. First, turn on your Kindle with Special Offers, click Menu, then View Special Offers.
  2. Find the offer: Buy One of 100 Mystery & Thriller Titles for $1. Click on it, then on the link to Email Me This Offer. Repeat for each KSO on your account, as you'll get a separate code for each one and can take advantage of this deal more than once.
  3. You will get an email from Amazon with your promotional code, right away.
  4. Once you have the promotion code (and have selected your book; see below), click this link, then on the button labeled Enter Your Code, at any time up to the expiration date of August 27.
  5. Enter your code and follow the directions.
  6. Choose any of these books and you'll pay only $1.
You'll have a promotion code on your account that will apply to the FIRST book you buy (from the list) after that. Note that even if the book is free, you'll pay a dollar, so be careful which one you pick after you enter the code -- make sure you don't go grabbing some low cost title, unless that is really the one you want. Current prices range from $1.99 (titles on the current Kindle Big Deal Sale) to $13.75 (and one book isn't available in the US, despite this offer being limited to those in the US). You should save the code and not enter it until you are ready to buy a book.

To recap: you must claim the offer by July 27 and must do so from your Kindle with Special Offers. You'll get a promotion code via email and you have until August 27 to enter and redeem the code. Once you enter it, it will work on the next book on the list that you purchase.

This offer is separate from the $1 for a Kindle book offer that expires tomorrow. You can take advantage of both (provided you signed up for the earlier offer in time).
