Free Kindle Game - Jigsaw Words Volume 2

Jigsaw Words Volume 2 is a new, free Kindle game from Amazon Digital Services.

Game Description
Jigsaw Words Volume 2 is a word game that challenges you to combine groups of letters into words that match the clues given.

This update to the popular Jigsaw Words gives you 100 new puzzles and each puzzle has 10 clues to solve. The puzzles are organized into 10 themed categories like A Journey Through the Decades and College 101, and you can use the theme to help you solve the clues.

In each puzzle, you start with a set of 10 clues. You also have a set of randomly arranged puzzle pieces with letters on them. Your goal is to solve the clues in the puzzle by arranging the puzzle pieces so that the letters form the word that matches each clue. Start with the easiest clues first. As you use each puzzle piece, it is removed from play, making it easier to find the more difficult matches. You can also shuffle the grid of puzzle pieces at any time for a different perspective.

If you enjoy working with words and patterns, try Jigsaw Words Volume 2 and test your ability to build words today!

Buy one of 100 Humor titles for $1 (KSO)

This offer is only for those with a Kindle with Special Offers (including any Kindle Touch or Kindle Keyboard that opts in to Special Offers).

Buy one of 100 Humor 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 Humor titles for $1. Click on it, then on the link to Email Me This Offer.
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 December 24.
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 grabbing a low cost title by accident, which can happen if you apply the code right away, before you are ready to buy the book. Current prices range from free (you definitely don't want to pay $1 for a free book) to $9.99. 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 November 24 and must do so from your Kindle with Special Offers. You'll get a promotion code via email and you have until December 24 to enter and redeem the code. Once you enter it, it will work on the next book on the list that you purchase.

Perfect timing - the first offer after allowing all Kindle 3+ owners to opt in to Special Offers is a tempting $1 book! If you have more than one device and want more than one book, be sure to FIRST register your devices to different accounts, before signing up on any of them, or all the devices will get the same promo code, which can only be used on the first account. One thing I have found is that you don't want to wait too long - as time passes, it's more likely that a book will be pulled by the publisher; two are already gone on this offer (or else someone picked the non-US editions for the offer; not useful, since the offers are limited to those in the US).

Save $10 on makeup in the Beauty Store (KSO)

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

Save $10 on a $30 purchase of select makeup in the Beauty Store

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 November 23.

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 December 23 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).

Limit one offer per customer and per device.

A decent discount on an item that gets a bit more use this time of year, what with all the parties coming up. The selection is a bit limited, but clicking on each category reveals a couple hundred items for each. Even if you don't find something for yourself, it's a good bet there is at least one holiday gift hiding in there.

Free Book (Kindle) - Tales from the Drunk Diet

Tales from the Drunk Diet, by Luc Carl, is free to pre-order in the Kindle store. Although it's an excerpt from a larger volume, it appears that an effort has been made to make it self-contained (rather than just a set number of samples), although we won't be sure until it is released the first week of January.

Book Description
An excerpt taken straight from Lüc Carl’s upcoming memoir, The Drunk Diet: How I Lost 40 Pounds…Wasted, a beer-soaked tale of a long-haired, leather-clad rock ’n roll party-maker who transformed a whiskey-and-5:00AM cheeseburger lifestyle into a wildly successful weight-loss regime.

Full of charismatic wit and insane stories about his life, this excerpt is a mix of memoir and advice: laugh and be inspired while he takes you along on his hilarious journey to become healthier and fitter, and live vicariously through a guy who likes to have a good time, ALL the time (even if that now means running 8 miles a day).
