[Amazon Students only!] Buy $25 Amazon Gift Card, Get $5 Promotional credit

UPDATE 4:30am ET: This offer is valid ONLY to Amazon Student members

They didn’t mention this in the Lightning Deals Upcoming schedule, but it turns out this offer is ONLY good for Amazon Students members, by entering coupon code STUDWEEK at Checkout. Amazon Student is a special program for eligible/qualifying students. The general population cannot use it. I don’t have an “Amazon Student” account so I can’t test it.

If you are an “Amazon Student”, this offer is good until the end of day on 10/9/15. The $5 promotional credit expires 11/22/15. The $25 gift card never expires…

If you are an “Amazon Student”, they have a number of Other offers running in parallel as well…
