Amazon Deal Alerts & Discussion Thread

Yeah, scroll down & you should see the ā€œApply Coupon Codeā€ box.

You see, this is my first time to use a coupon code in Amazon, though I have made several orders before. What I donā€™t exactly remember is after clicking the ā€˜deliver to this addressā€™, will that be the next step where you can ā€˜apply coupon codeā€™? And if the code is used, will that bring down the price to $4.60 for the pack of twenty CR123s? Seems like a too cheap to be good deal.

My address comes up automatically, so Iā€™m not sure about that. But, as long as you ā€˜Apply Couponā€™ before you ā€˜Place Orderā€™ it should work fine.
.
EDIT: When I do it I have the opportunity to apply the coupon at any time before I actually place the orderā€¦ IIRC.

Hang on a few minutes & Iā€™ll run through the whole process & report back. :slight_smile:

Well, I was doing as instructed, clicked on the ā€˜promotion codeā€™ and pasted the given code, (it was after the ā€˜choose your addressā€™) but didnā€™t see any price in the page, just a box to continueā€¦I was hesitant to continue for IIRC, Amazon just can be fast in announcing ā€˜order placedā€™ā€¦in contrast to using Paypal where there many ways to check the final amount before the ā€˜payā€™ stage.

OKā€¦. I just placed an order. You can apply the coupon code anytime after ā€˜Proceed to Checkoutā€™ but before ā€˜Place Orderā€™.

You must hit ā€˜Continueā€™ when it asks you to, otherwise you cannot proceed.

If something screws up you can always immediately ā€˜Cancelā€™ your order.

You should be able to see the price change in detail after you ā€˜Apply the Codeā€™.

Your order will not be placed before you click on ā€˜Place Orderā€™. :+1:

How much was it?

The total for my CR123 order was $4.80 after all coupons, but I think the Vipon coupon might have just expired.

KuoH

Believe!

If indeed those cr123s are of decent quality, you guys just got a real good deal!

I will sacrifice one to do a capacity test, I have a RC hobby charger, on what settings should I do the discharge test? What is the industry standard? 500mah? to what voltage? 2.5v?

If itā€™s a 1450mAh cell, then 500ma is .3cā€¦thatā€™s good enough.

I donā€™t know the industry standard for testing uniform capacity but discharging down to 2.8 volts, the usual termination voltage of several chargers is I believe appropriate enough for ā€˜ourā€™ standards at least!

I ordered a Digital TV Antennaā€¦. it was $10.79 ā€™out the doorā€™. :wink:

Did you get it to work for you tatasal??

I am going to try it in a few moments as I just discovered the card I registered has expired so I just got hold of a new card.

Letā€™s hope the promo is still on as Kuoh just posted he thinks it may have expired.

Itā€™s now gone up to $ 7.20 !ā€¦.13min to go as of this writingā€¦for a new code at 7.20ā€¦quick, what do you think of the quality of this Morpilot brand?

Now itā€™s back to ā€˜deal requestedā€™.

:+1: ā€¦ā€¦ Okā€¦. I just checked Vipon & it does seem the code has expired. Butā€¦ if you already had it in your cart & had applied the code, it might still work. It canā€™t hurt to try.

I just got 20 batts for $5.09 shipped
