Get $10 promo reward for every $75 gift cards at B&N
It’s that time of the year for Gift Card offers as well. Barnes and Noble is back with their Holiday Gift Card promotion. For every $75 you buy in plastic gift cards, you receive a $10 promotional reward. The $75 gift cards are normal gift cards with no expiration.
The $10 promotional gift card can only be used between December 26 (2017) and February 28 (2018). In other words, they want to encourage consumers to shop there after Christmas, so the promo card won’t cannibalize holiday purchases 🙂

YMMV: Amazon offering product discounts when you select No Rush Shipping
This is YMMV! While surfing around on Amazon I noticed a new promotion on some product pages. Amazon offers you a discount on products IF you select “No Rush Shipping” instead of a faster shipping option. I tested this with a Prime account, a non-Prime account, and without being logged in, and all three show the same promotion. However, Amazon runs all kinds of experiments on offers, so I have no way of knowing how well spread out these are.
Here is an example. You get offered a $10 off discount on the current price of the 2TB Western Digital External Hard Drive. What’s interesting the discount varies. For example, the 4TB is $7 off instead of $10 off.
Here’s a screenshot to make sure I’m not making it up 🙂
With Black Friday 2017 just three weeks away, perhaps these promotions are designed to help optimize their shipping and delivery?

Slik Lite CF-522 Carbon Fiber Tripod for $100 after $100 MIR (prepaid GC)
The Slik Lite CF-522 Carbon Fiber Tripod was on sale last week for $150 at Adorama. The bad news is that the price has now increased to $200. The good news is that this tripod has a $100 mail-in rebate on it, making it $100 after the $100 mail-in rebate.
The PDF link of the rebate form can be found at the product page. Per the PDF file, it runs for the whole month of November 2017, and it is maximum two per household for this promotional period. The $100 will be a prepaid VISA or Mastercard gift card.
The link to the PDF file is really small, here’s a screenshot highlighting it:
This is a five leg carbon fiber tripod. Per the PDF, the rebate only works for this specific model, and this rebate form is specific to Adorama, not other retailers.
FREE Canon PIXMA PRO 100 printer and photo paper with purchase of select Canon DSLRs, G-series, M6 mirrorless [after mail-in rebate]
If you are not afraid of mail-in rebates and prepaid American Express gift cards, Adorama has a new promotion for you! Select Canon camera bundles include the Canon Pixma PRO 100 printer and 50pk photo paper. After you receive them and file the mail-in rebate per directions, a few weeks later you will receive a $350 prepaid AMEX gift card by mail. This will counter the price of the printer/paper, thus making them free after mail-in rebate.
Eligible cameras for this promotion are the M6 mirrorless, a couple of G-series RAWsumers, various D-Rebel kits (T6, T6i, T6, T5i), various APS-C DSLR kits (80D, 7D II), and various 35mm full frame DSLR kits (5DS, 6D II, 6D, 5D IV).
For more Adorama action, check their Pre-Holiday Sales which include clearance items among the 3600+ options listed there. Obviously I can’t quickly “digest” these as I have yet to be absorbed by IBM’s Watson 🙂

AMEX Offers: Get $25 back on $250+ Best Buy purchases [must activate first]
If you think you are going to spend at least $250 until the end of the year at Best Buy (online and/or brick and mortar store) and you have an American Express account, when you login to your AMEX account online, check under the “AMEX Offers” section for this promotion. You get a one-time $25 statement credit you make a minimum of $250 in combined purchases at Best Buy’s website and/or brick and mortar store.
This doesn’t have to be a single transaction, small purchases can add up to that. Make sure you activate the offer first in your AMEX account before you start buying. Activation is simple, you just press the “Add to Card” button. The offer expires 12/31/17.
As usual with these offers, I don’t know if everyone is offered these, or the AMEX computers offer it so a subset of their customers based on what their AI and Humans Bots decide 🙂
Strategically, add this to your card if there is a possibility you might do this. The option to sign up usually leaves your account before the offer expires, so don’t wait until Christmas Eve to try to add it to your account 🙂
