Spend $25+ in Kindle eBooks, Get $6 credit [YMMV]

If there any Kindle ebooks, photography or otherwise, you want to buy, and they never go on sale, this recurring promotion might give you an extra boost.

I do not know if this is targeted or offered to all Amazon customers so YMMV.

Between March 21-28 in 2022, if you make $25+ in Kindle ebook purchases, you will receive a $6 promotional ebook credit to be spent on future ebook purchases.

If you are logged on to your Amazon account, this promotional page will tell you if you are eligible.

You have to activate the offer, either by visiting the above page (auto-activation) or clicking something (eg a banner on the Amazon website mentioning the promotion).

The great thing about this offer is that it is retroactive. For example if you activate it on March 27, all purchases you made between March 21-28 count towards the offer.

Friday Only: Stock Up on Tolkien
Thanks to the above promotion, if you want to stock up on J. R. R. R. R. Tolkien ebooks, for Friday 3/25/22 in the pacific time zone, Amazon has a sale on 19 Tolkien e-books including the famous ones (LOTR, Hobbit). These will likely become very trendy again once September comes and Amazon’s new half-a-billion Lord of the Rings TV series rolls out…

Time Warp News: Senate votes to make DayLight Savings permanent [still needs to pass House & President to sign]

Twice a year we must needs change the time in various clocks and gadgets, assuming we remember which ones change automatically and which ones require manual intervention.

In mayhaps the first good news of 2022, the US Senate passed by unanimous consent (not a single one of the usual suspects demanded a roll-call vote) the proposed law that makes daylight savings time permanent.

This is not a law yet! It has to pass the House of Representatives, and then get signed by El Presidente (or Congress overrides a veto), before it becomes law.

Daylight savings is the new-current current time, the “Spring Forward” time. As the “daylight savings” name hints at, the “spring forward” pushes an extra hour of daylight into the evening, thus “saving” the daylight for more people to enjoy 🙂 Furthermore, the daylight is not “wasted” in the earlier hours of the morning where many may be sleeping or wanting to be sleeping but get woken up by the sunlight…

More details via the various websites linked through at Memeorandum, the newsy site of Techmeme… Or if you just want to read one article with sunrise and sunset light-comparison images (why not?) check out the VoX…

And what makes this long-winded post on-topic: of photography interest, it gives us a more consistent schedule with regards to sunrises and sunsets and photographing things in general, and those of us who may be using older cameras, we’ll have correct capture times all year round 🙂

Amazon Pickup Orders: $10 off coupon w/$20+ orders

If you live in an area that has Amazon pickup points (self-service lockers, counters, etc), for the promotional period from 3/2/22 to 4/27/22, coupon code PICKUP10OFF gets you $10 off an order of $20+. The offer is good for products sold and shipped by Amazon itself. Fulfilled by Amazon and 3rd-party sellers are NOT eligible for this promotion.

Digital products are obviously not eligible, since you don’t pick them up at self-service lockers 🙂

The offer may be targeted (I have no way to knowing, it just showed it to me on an promotional banner while I was on their website). The offer has a limited number of redemptions. YMMV as always…

If you haven’t tried the self-service lockers, fear not, they work real well. I tried them inside 711s, Staples and Whole Foods without issue through the years…
