Our Verdict
Not sure if this offer is working for everyone – see if it lets you activate the offer and you’ll know if you were targeted.
These are all nice deals, but nothing groundbreaking since Amazon often puts Kindle’s on sale. Still a nice discount for someone who wants to buy one now.

Hey Will, was just on my Amazon account and I saw this offer pop up again. I activated it for all five of the products you originally mentioned in your post. The three regular Fire tablets are the same prices you originally listed. The kids tablets though are more expensive ($69.99 for the Kids 7 and $89.99 for the Kids 8).
Just saw there was a new DoC post about this! Please disregard :D
Discounted prices for all Amazon Fire devices are gone now. It went to regular price now. Anyone see the discounted price?
Nope, sucks too because I was going to buy the fire kids tablet for the sole purpose of saving money to get the freetime app for my two kids. Hopefully it comes back.
I picked up the Kids HD 8 (better than the regular HD 8 because it's 32 GB and 2 year warranty, but the same $50 price!). That's a heck of a deal for a $130 retail tablet. But, thinking I might resell it and possibly get the HD 10.
Any idea how long the Amex promo may last? It would be great if they put the HD 10 on sale like the Kids HD 8 was to make it a better deal.
I got my Kindle 8 HD last Sept for $21 from Amazon with previous Amex MR point offer!
was thinkin' along the same lines -- as in what's the big deal with this latest promo? Remembering too when the Tablet 8 (now aging technology) was going for $29 straight up on Black Friday.
PS, to anybody who gets one of these things, pay attention closely to all the mind-numbing fine print when you first open up your machine -- and AVOID signing up for any free trials. If you forget to cancel at the end of your first month, never mind if you didn't use the whatever, Amazon will be more than happy to soak your accounts month and after month til ya notice.
The title of the article would be better to say Kindle Fire devices or Amazon Fire Tablets. I clicked in thinking they were discounting Kindle Paperwhite, etc. The e-readers are the Kindles. Just thought I'd point that out.
Yeah it's just Fire now, no such thing as Kindle Fire in several years now.
Yeah, thought same thing. Updated post
Nobody wants to buy my Apple tv. Screw the kindle.
All useless gadgets.
Also i hate a whole bag of chips, shop feeling pretty disgusted right now.
sold my apple tv's to one of those online electronics upcycling places. Got about $110 each.
I feel your pain. I always feel like crap after a big ole bag o chips.
Thanks Jacob. At least it wasn't a tub of ice cream like those women.
We both are manly.
It worked for me on the kindle 7 and 8... also... you can go through Ibotta for 3% cash back on Amazon devices... Jesus Walks with Me!!
Is there any possibility that you separate your shopping commentary from your religious beliefs? I have no problem with Christianity, but it seems a little over the top to assert Jesus in every comment that you make...
Is there a possibility you mind your own business and allow people the freedom they are given in this country???
Glad you asked... answer... nope!! However, I am willing to offer you an olive branch and thus leave... love in Christ... off this one.
oh my.... ran into many faith-ful souls like you, ancient history in my days among the sheeple out at oru, so many amway devotees to the WOF, "name-it-claim-it" realms of the holy prosperity "gospel." While you're of course free to wear your "evangelism" on your sleeve, those of us who stopped worshiping the likes of Strang, Osteen, White, & Creflo might also be free to be less than "evangelized" ..... even turned off and unable to hear what you're sayin'
Jesus is her pet and an AU for the CSP.
