This deal is worded a bit strangely, but the upshot is that if you buy an Amazon gift card to 'give away' (hey, I give them to myself), then you'll get a promo code via email at the end of the month, worth Up to $100 Back on Kindle Accessories. Presumably that Promo code will work like others have in the past - you put the accessories in your cart, then enter the code during checkout (no one-clicking). It's the beginning of the month and time for me to get a new gift card, anyway, so I might as well grab one that gets me a discount on a new cover or earbuds...- Buy $50, get back $10
- Buy $100, get back $20
- Buy $500, get back $100
It appears that any of these gift cards you buy between now and March 14 will count, but it may only take into account a single purchase (you could put multiple cards together into one purchase). You may only earn one promo discount per account/customer.
