Kindle Special Offers: Free $5 account credit for watching preview of "Monday Mornings"

Quote from SerafinM : I have the Kindle Fire HD and I don't see any $5 thing in offers. Offers subscription is on too.

I didn't see it at first either, but after I synched my Kindle it showed up.

worked on my 8.9" thanks!

Thanks. Bought a Kindle Fire on Tuesday. This offer got me to finally take it out of the box. Guess it took me so long, since I'm peeved at how much accessories cost (have not bought any yet). The whole having to buy a charger to be able to plug it directly into the wall really gets me. Unbelievable how long it takes to charge from the computer USB. Okay my little rant. Would love to know where to get a good deal on one of those chargers. Thanks again for notifying us of this offer, and now I know to look for others. *yes this is my first tablet**and yes I did not pay retail (worked some deal magic)

Any of your current cell phone chargers will work (assuming they have micro USB jack at the end OR you can plug the included micro USB cable into it). There is really no need to buy the designated Amazon charger unless you really want it to charge in less than 3 hours. The 'standard' cell phone charger will take a bit longer. And yes, computer charging in slow.

Thanks. I didn't even consider that.

You bought a Fire or a Fire HD on Tuesday?
Just looked and saw that if you bought a charger with it, the price would be halved from 19.99 to 9.99.. maybe a phone call would be prudent to see if you can get the deal for that.

Otherwise for the 2.1 iPad and other tablet chargers go for about that: 9.99.

Like this recent deal: http://slickdeals.net/f/5816036-P...99-shipped although Tanga takes forever to ship I heard. At least that's what I think this board likes to say. That one is good because both ports can put out 2.1 at the same time. Some don't put out that much and I think I read one where if a phone is already charging, it wouldn't output 2.1 on the other port. So it charges, but it's hard to tell which one is which. Kinda annoying. I bought this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009RXU59C and I don't recommend it. And idealpoint (the seller) isn't great at their customer service either. Red tape and such in the email communications.

Otherwise I'm not sure where a fast charger can be found for, for less. A reputable one at least. Maybe someone else can say where a good one can be found that actually works right. That cube one from Amazon for iPhones is a knockoff and problems abound in the reviews. Hope that helps! But agreed with Szyszka, it will take 5-6 hours, but it will still charge your Kindle Fire. The Micro-USB port is universal nowadays.

Quote from boxmodeler : Wow, that preview was horrible. The music was so loud i could barely hear the voices. Whoever did the sound editing needs a stern talking to...

Maybe they did talk to whomever did the sound editing, but he/she couldn't hear because the music was too loud.

Slightly off topic. The Joy Factory charger outputs 2.1 amp on each of the two outputs allowing you to charge two devices at once. Not $10, but $16.95 shipped from Buy.com. It is a better charger if you have two devices that have higher power requirements.

Not on Kindle with keyboard. I was just thinking about turning it on to check if there are any good offers. None as usual.

Thank you and repped!

ehhh im in the same boat.

Quote from sxy2003 : ehhh im in the same boat.

If I wasn't so lazy I would sell my Kindle Keyboard to get a Paperwhite, but every time I think about it I wonder if I'll ever travel somewhere where the premium I paid for the 3G (cellular data) model would come in handy and I should keep it.

I watched the video but did not get a $5 credit added to my account. The offer is no longer listed under "offers." Probably because I already watched the video. Did I miss some crucial step? I didn't fast forward the video but didn't really pay attention to the video and even had it muted.

I also never got a confirmation email. So how do I get the $5 discount if the offer is no longer listed? Any ideas?

You were supposed to click on the "Redeem Offer" button after you watched the video. You could maybe try contacting Amazon Kindle CS. I'd bet that if you explained it to them you'd get the credit. Worth a phone call IMO.
