My pleasure - have been meaning to do this for a couple of days - and I'm hoping to pick up some more vouchers myself with ideas from the rest of the HUKD community!

​there is no deal

No, it's not the same. This is a thread for deals using that offer, to highlight the ones that give HUKDers maximum value for money, so it's not the same as GHAZI786's post, whose contribution I have acknowledged.

If you would but the things that the credit can be used for then it is.
If you wouldn't then it isn't, but then this isn't a thread for you to be in if thats the case :smiley:

You might not read books or watch films or listen to music, but for those of us that do, e.g. with a huge wishlist of books, buying a buying the Sudocrem 400g, for instance, for £4.50, gets us £3 back to spend on books. However you split the credit, you're getting £7.50 worth of merchandise for £4.50.

Indeed. You understand the deal! In my family we get through things like Sudocrem, earphones, pens, etc. at some rate, so getting £3 a time back towards books etc. is a great deal.

Gee, thanks for acknowledging the effort I've put into helping people. You might not appreciate my effort, but as you can see from other comments here there are a good number of people who do appreciate it, so kindly take your bile elsewhere. Thank you.

If I spend £3.81 on a pack of pens that me and my family will use/lose/do useful things with and get £3 worth of Kindle books then we're getting £6.81 worth of stuff that we will use and appreciate and learn from for £3.81.

I'm quite sure Amazon aren't really chuckling - using this deal effectively, for stuff that you would buy/use/consume anyway for lots of small orders (that being the key) and getting a big chunk of books or films or entertainment into the bargain is NOT what Amazon want - they're just trying to manage the spikes and troughs in their order/dispatch process. If they were really chuckling about this then they'd offer £3 all the time, not just at very busy times. If you stop to think about it.

P.S. To the small number of people who caused this thread to be expired for a couple of hours until it was unexpired, please don't abuse the spam button - it has been unexpired by the powers that be on HUKD, so is clearly NOT spam. Please respect the mods decision unless you wish to incur their wrath. Thank you.

It's anything on Amazon App Store, kindle store or MP3 store. You want a list of every single thing on all of those stores?!?!

​You're missing the entire point of the thread, which is to get the credit WITHOUT the rubbish! :wink:

Thank you AndyWedge. It's disappointing how obtuse and argumentative some people are because they don't like the deal. There's nothing in it for me other than the satisfaction of helping people get value for their money (and maybe get some good deals back too).

The shocking part is that at least a couple of the items I've listed above are hot deals in their own right (e.g. Sudocrem 400g at £4.50, Sennheiser earphones for £5, etc.), so getting them with an additional £3 voucher back on top is a great deal (for those who can read or listen to music or enjoy films or apps, anyway).

In addition to grooty's finds above, apart from the £3 Kindle/video/music/app credit for No-rush each one also qualifies for another £1 credit towards Amazon video under this offer:

...which makes each of grooty's Blurays/DVDs listed at £6.99 as little as a bargainous £2.99 each, delivered!

Thank you. I'm just sorry that it seems to annoy a small number of vociferous people who seem to think we get paid for posting deals and who get annoyed when I respond to them! An earlier critic mentioned the Argos deal, and asked why not post a separate deal for everything with their £10 voucher offer, which misses the point, namely that:

- the Argos offer gets you £10 on purchases of £100 or more, so there is a high entry price of £100 and a maximum benefit of no more than 10%.

- this offer gets you £3 of digital credit on purchases of £3 or more, so there's a maximum benefit of up to 100%, reducing pro rata to 50% for purchases of £6, 33% for purchases of £9 etc., so a much greater rate of return.

The idea behind this thread being to collect all such high discount/credit to cost deals in one place, for those who care to maximise their digital book, music, video and app credit while buying low cost useful items (that in many cases are hot deals in their own right) that we'd be buying anyway at some point in the foreseeable future.

Thanks :smiley:

Amazon usually email me when they are about to expire ..

It's not £3 back. You get to download some digital content in return. Genius problem solving by Amazon. They solve two problems at once. Inventory clearance and heavy delivery load. Really hats off to them.

Also OP doesn't understand how the word effective is used. The £3.82 item never effectively becomes £0.82. He pays £3.82 and will never see the cash back.

There isn't any way of checking the expiry date - though an email to Amazon will get you it. The more emails they get wasting their time (and ours) maybe the better the chance of it showing online.

Must admit I just grabbed that one too :stuck_out_tongue:

Would be good if you've found something useful where this possible - the general consensus is that you only get the £3 digital credit with No-rush that are £3 or more.

Bravo Sleth!

As Sleth says, the two items he's found are both £1 each on a Lightning Deal, but both are eligible for the £3 No-rush digital credit - so by ordering them separately using No-rush you get £4 of straight profit to spend on Kindle books or other digital products! And if the goods do turn up, you have a couple of drinks coasters or something for your local charity shop! Bargain!

You get the £3 credit very shortly after the items are dispatched, but you will get it, even if the offer changes before then (it did last time it was on).

I added this to the top of the post yesterday:

If you're needing help finding things to spend your Amazon digital credit on please see sabresonics's thread here:

And of course there's a ton of MP3 music for sale on Amazon, a bazillion ebooks, lots of movies and tv series and a few apps for good measure! I've got £130+ of credit too - the only problem will be choosing which of the hundreds of books on my wish list to spend it on!
