    Extra 10% Amazon plus $25 off

    I've had a few items sitting in my Amazon cart waiting to be purchased. When I looked at them today there was this note:

    "Special Offer: For a limited time, get an instant 10% discount on any Hand Tool or Power Tool Accessory sold by Amazon.com. You don't have to do anything. The discount will appear automatically in your cart at checkout."

    With this and the $25 off of $199, I saved over $45 bucks on a Benchdog router table. Not sure what all this applies to, but it is worth checking out if you have been waiting for just a little better deal

      I tried it, it would only apply one code. So it initially showed the 10% discount, then when I entered the code, it only showed the $25 off.

        BigGuy, call Amazon (800-201-7575)... the site states it clearly:

        Get an automatic instant 10% discount on any hand tool or tool accessory in addition to $25 off $199 savings. Limited-time offer.

        (emphasis added)
        Never met a bargain I didn't like.

          I think I figured it out. It says hand tool or power tool accessory. I was buying a router combo- so maybe it didn't qualify?

            BigGuy, I'd ask them anyway... if the cart showed it as 10% off when you put it in, it seems to me it must have qualified.

                No go- they said it was one or the other. The $25 off was the better of the two....

                  BigGuy, what did they say? As my post above indicates, the site clearly states you can use both. Why did they say you could not?

                    Well he put me on hold, then came back stating that only one promotion may be applied. So I dunno... Didn't give me a clearer answer...

                        The wording of the 10% promotion clearly stated that it was in addition to the $25 of $199. I placed two orders over the W/E and got both discounts on both orders. It is specific to "any hand tool or tool accessory"....a router combo is a power tool. Did you mention to them that your nickname starts with "Big"?

                          As far as I can tell Im not seeing 10% off on any power tools, but do get 10% off hand tools and tool accessories. Plus the $25 off over $199.
