Here's a great promotion I got via email just now. It seems that I can start my holiday shopping and cross at least one person off the list from the keyboard.Right now, you will receive $5 off a future Amazon.com retail order when you purchase an Amazon.com Gift Card of $50 or greater in a single purchase between November 24, 2009, and December 1, 2009.
If you make a single purchase of a $50 or greater Amazon.com Gift Card and do not cancel, a promotional code of $5 will be sent to this email address by December 31, 2009, and is good for one month from the date of the email. There's a bunch of additional restrictions, which can be found at amazon.com/promos. I don't think there's a promo code, I just have to purchase it and it will automatically issue the $5 free credit to Amazon.
The best part about Amazon Gift Cards is that you can send them via email to yourself as well! 10% off Amazon purchases. I'll take that!
mp3 downloads are to iTunes as ebook downloads are to Amazon.com -- At least that's what Jeff Bezos wants you to think.
The new Amazon Kindle ebook reader device is a big hit so far with the geek squad.
But to get the masses excited about this product, Amazon and Chase are running a promotion that gives you an extra $100 off the promotional price of the Kindle reader.
I haven't yet seen the Kindle in person, but it's gotten rave reviews:
It looks like there's 2 parts of this discount for the Kindle Reader Device. $70 promotion code + $30 Amazon Chase Visa card promo. Don't know if they are mutually exclusive or must be used in combination....but here's the fine print -- which looks like the $70 can be used separately.

I'm sure you've found the stuff you needed for yourself on Amazon.com...
I'm sure you've found the stuff you needed for gifts on Amazon.com...
But what about for the times that you have no clue what to get?
Or what about when it's just too late to go out and buy a gift (you lazy bum you!)?
Or what if you just found out that you have to go to your aunt's birthday dinner and it's only hours away?
Here's a product that's perfect for just about everyone, can be bought and given in minutes from Amazon.com...
The Amazon.com Gift Card.
I've resisted for the longest time to getting gift cards as gifts, but lately, I've received some myself and they can be quite convenient...and inconvenient. Convenient since you can use it to wait and buy whatever you wish. Great for those splurges you've been trying to justify in the back of your mind lately.
But they become inconvenient when they are tied to a specific merchant -- or even a specific mall.
But Amazon.com gift certificates would be perfect for most people since they sell so many products across so many categories...and you also have a selection of products from literally thousands of 3rd party sellers too. That means millions of products, pretty competitive pricing, convenient and gratifying. What more could you ask for?
This is "Get-90%-Off-Electronics-At-Amazon-Month" or put it another way, your lucky day if you're a tech-nerd.
Amazon has over 500 items that they've put on discount -- and I mean "DISCOUNT". These are all 90% or more off the original prices on electronics for sale on Amazon.

Our church is moving to a new location and we need a new projector for the images/video shown in our PowerPoint presentation for the regular worship service. The situation is a gymnasium so we need a powerful projector.
We were first looking at a 4000 Lumen projector, but now have found a 3200 lumen projector by BenQ that seems to have decent reviews. The price difference is roughly $1,500.
Amazon of course has it for sale and the express shipping with Amazon Prime is a great incentive. But is the differential between 3200 and 4000 that great?
We've used smaller projectors - from 800 - 1200 lumens, but never at this magnitude.
Does anyone have any experience with BenQ brand or projectors in this category?
