Amazon discount codes

Ever since I wrote about Amazon shopping tips and hacks last November the article has been the most visited page on ProBargainHunter. In case you missed it -- the post describes how you can browse discounted merchandise on Amazon (by messing around with the URL's) and lists a few other useful tips.

The article featured on LifeHacker and Consumerist and even prompted some people to create tools for easy URL building.

Below is my own attempt to summarize the information from that blog post into a more usable format. Click on the links with discount codes below to browse Amazon merchandise, and let me know if you notice any broken links. It was a large number of codes to compile and verify after all!

Take the results you see with a grain of salt though. I noticed that Amazon often stocks items for a very long time. As fast as the prices for electronics go down it is funny to see a 32" LCD TV listed for $15,000 and discounted down to $1000. That makes one hell of a bargain! ;-)

    For a moment there, I thought you borrowed the table layout from my website: http://www.markdownmonkey.com/coupons/amazon.asp

    Anyway, I got the Idea from your original post. With all the exposure you’ve gotten form this post I suspect it’ll be hard not to come across these links when you’re bargain hunting.

    Fantastic blog Yan!

    Hi Matt! Welcome to my blog. I strolled over your website and I absolutely have to add it to my database. Nice work!

    Great stuff,

    One suggestion: Break the table down into two sets: One for new only and one for used only would be helpful. The discount percentages get skewed by the spread betwen the two. Especially in the “New & Used category since they seem to always include one reference to a new listing to inflate the the discount percentage.

    Thanks for providing this tabled structure… Great stuff…

    Till date I am using http://www.enjoydeals.com search to find the products.

    Its great to see lot of help is on way to save money on Amazon.com

    I used the same approach to drill-down into the subcategories of each main category.. The Amazon categories are very broad, so they definitely need to be broken down:

    Once you click through to Amazon using the table above, you can narrow your search by sub-category using the Amazon links in the left side bar.

    I’m not finding the deals. I’m finding where Amazon has marked $5 products as originally $250, to make it look like it was drastically reduced. Really strange and not helpful.
