Amazon Deadlines for Christmas
Amazon has a variety of deadlines for Christmas purchases.
+ Friday DEC 22 is the last day for the usual 2-day Prime shipping
+ Saturday DEC 23: for some areas, this is the last day for Prime 1-Day shipping. Minimum order of $35 is needed for this option
+ Sunday DEC 24: for other areas, this is the last day for Prime 1-Day shipping. Minimum order of $35 is needed for this option. Ends by 9:30am local time (or earlier, varies by region), so this is for very early orders (or late night Saturday orders).
+ Sunday DEC 24 by 9:14pm local time (or earlier, varies by region): PRIME NOW deliveries, Prime members only. Minimum order amount required (varies by region).
+ Monday DEC 25: gift cards and other digital purchases
It is important to note that for local deliveries (Prime NOW, 1-Day Prime shipping) the items of interest must be in-stock at a local/regional facility, otherwise there isn’t enough time to get to you in time.
The shopping cart will give you a more accurate estimate when you are about to place an order. There are many variables in play, so the above deadlines are only a guideline/estimate.
Amazon $5/$15+ Book Coupon extended to Friday 3am ET
If you haven’t used this coupon yet, and haven’t found time to shop for books you want/need, fear not! Amazon has yet again extended the deadline of their $5 off physical book orders of $15+, sold and shipped by Amazon itself until Friday 3am eastern. The coupon code is the same, enter BOOKGIFT17 in the shopping cart. Calendars and other things that are filed under “Books” may also be eligible (eg audiobooks on CD ~ YMMV – the shopping cart is the ultimate decider on what qualifies).
Strategically this is good for books that have the same prices everywhere, or rarely go on sale. Some places to look for ideas:
+ then drill down the sub-categories on the left-hand side, eg Black and White Photography or Digital Photography
+ those categories have sub-categories for further drilling down, eg Editing or Flash Photography

FREE 27″ Samsung CF398 Curved Monitor with select Samsung Notebook 9 PRO laptop purchases ($850 to $1200)
A trio of Notebook 9 PRO laptops are eligible for FREE 27″ Samsung CF398 Curved Monitor at the Samsung website. Use your browser’s search function to search for “CF398” on that page, or slowly skim and scan the info dump to find them 🙂 The three eligible laptops range from $850 to $1200. The monitor is added automatically to your shopping cart for FREE while this promotion is running. There’s no coupon, no rebate!
If you want to research the monitor, this is its product page. Do not add the monitor to the shopping cart from this page. I’m only including it for reference. If you page further down on that page, you’ll also find the PDF user manual of the monitor.
As far as I can tell, only these three models are eligible for the free monitor.
HTC VIVE Virtual Reality System for $499
The Microsoft Store action continues with $199 Xbox One S 500GB Console with a free game as the deal of the day, while at the same time, they are offering the new condition HTC VIVE Virtual Reality System for $499 with free shipping and free returns. Free returns are handy when boldly going with new technology 🙂

Ricoh Theta M15 360 Degree Spherical Camera for $98
This camera is not eligible for the 20% Prime Credit Card Statement credit promotion but it looks like a 3rd-party seller has “tricked” Amazon’s own price bots to price-match them, dropping the blue color scheme of the Ricoh Theta M15 360 Degree Spherical Panorama Camera to the very specific price of $98.24 with up to three units per customer at this price.
The other three colors range from $100 to $110 but they are sold by 3rd party seller “Kanga Supply” with the orders fulfilled by Amazon. Kanga also offers the blue for $98, which is what likely triggered Amazon’s own price to drop for that particular color.
SLR Magic CINE 50mm F1.1 + SLR Magic 52mm variable ND filter II for $339 [Sony E]

Free Gift Card offers continue for Panasonic Lenses, M43 Cameras and Fixed Lens Cameras
I just rechecked, the Panasonic offers bundled with gift cards of the last couple of weeks are continuing, featuring gift cards for various M43 lenses, along with some M43rds camera bundles, and almost all of their non-entry-level fixed lens cameras get some kind of a gift card. There are over 15 posts of them, so I don’t what to repeat them here. You can find them at the Panasonic posts here.
