Save $20 on coffee & tea essentials (KSO)

This offer is only for those with a Kindle with Special Offers:

Save $20 on a $50 purchase of coffee & tea essentials at Amazon.com

Click on offer, then click on the link on the offer page to receive an email with the promotion code. Sign-up for this offer expires on August 28.

You'll get an email (right away), a link to the Special Offer page and a promotion code to enter at checkout. Once you have the promotional code, you have until September 28 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).

This offer can be used more than once per account, so long as you have more than one KSO registered. Just click on the ad on each device to receive the individual promotion codes via email.

When I first saw this offer, I first thought "ooh, we can always use more coffee", then I saw the word "essentials". My next thought - "how did Amazon know we were talking about getting a new, glass French Press?' Alas, neither is on this sale. Instead, there are dozens of items, from gorgeous to whimsical: coffee servers (some porcelain, some silver and goofy red tower that includes the cups), tea pots, cups, thermoses, travel mugs, cream and sugar sets, glassware and a lot of stuff that isn't "coffee" related, at all - cake stands, serving platters, knife sets, cutting boards, etc. There is one french press, but it's a travel mug version (and I actually have one of those, already). I don't doubt I'll find a few things there I might like; for those starting out, though, there are several essentials that would work well, so be sure to check out the list if you have any graduation or newlywed gifts on the horizon. I noticed a few of the items also qualify for a 4-for-3 promotion, so you may be able to double up on that with this offer, as well (I saw one Tea For One Set (a pot/cup single serving combo) on this offer, for example, that worked out to getting four of the item for the cost of about 2; or you could get three of them and the discount and pick any item on the 4-for-3 promotion as the "free" item).
