There’s a new offer out at Amazon where you can get $5 in Amazon credit by adding a debit or credit card to your Amazon wallet. This appears to be targeted, but some people that weren’t targeted (or at least didn’t KNOW that they were targeted) were able to get the credit. It’s worth clicking through to see if you were targeted, since $5 Amazon credit is essentially good as cash, at least for many people.

More Ways To Save Money at Amazon
Amazon often has promotions where you can get a percentage or dollar value off a purchase by using at least 1 credit card point (like Chase Ultimate Rewards, American Express Membership Rewards, etc). These deals are typically targeted, but it’s a good idea to regularly check if you’re eligible, because these deals come around quite a bit. Note that it is generally a bad value to use your points to shop at Amazon, but it’s definitely worth using 1 point to save $20 – $50.
