Get $2 Off Select $5 MP3 Albums

Another great MP3 deal, for those with either a Kindle Fire or access to any Android device that can run the Amazon MP3 app: Get $2 Off Select $5 MP3 Albums When You Purchase on the Amazon MP3 App for Android or Kindle Fire. You must use either the App or the Music Store from the Kindle Fire, not a web browser to purchase the album. So, although I've linked in the list here, to make it easier to see which albums are on the list (it's mostly the same as the May $5 MP3 Albums list, but not quite the same, as I saw a $2.99 Memoryhouse album hiding on this offer's page; you may or may not get the $2 discount on it, since it isn't a "$5 album"), you'll need to do a manual search on your device to find the album and purchase it. Be sure that you don't accidentally grab a version that has a digital booklet with it, also, as those are specifically excluded.

There's no date indicated on when this offer ends, so I wouldn't wait too long to try it (right now, I see a box about the offer on the product details page for the albums included - so long as you can see that, it should still be a valid promotion). I also don't see any information as to whether or not this is a "limit one" offer, so if anyone buys two from the list, could you leave a comment and let us all know if you received the discount each time? Also, if you have any problems getting the discount (on the earlier Lumineers $2 off discount that had the same purchase requirements, I didn't get my $2 off and had to email support to get a credit). OK, I found two albums on the list that I wanted and decided to chance it - in fact, you do get the $2 discount for each album purchased, with no apparent limit (other than that there are only about 100 albums that qualify).

If you still have the $2 Facebook MP3 credit (good thru tomorrow), you can combine it with this one, giving you a net price of $1 on any of the albums included. Alas, I spent my credit on John Handy's Live At Monterey album; although the album is priced at $9.99, you can get each of the two 1/2 hour long cuts for 99 cents apiece (If Only We Knew and Spanish Lady), leaving two cents to spend on something else. Another good choice for that credit would be Lionel Richie's Tuskegee album, which is currently on sale at $2.99 (not included in this sale, though, so you can't double up the credits on it).
