ð/2% (Pi / 2) Discount at Amazon.com

Okay geeks of the world, here's a neato trick to get Pi / 2 % discount at Amazon.com. Pi is approximately 3.14 so 3.14 / 2 is a 1.57% discount...not much, but it's something.

go to www.A9.com and use the search engine for a couple of searches, you can login and do some neato stuff such as saving past searches, your login for A9.com is the same as the Amazon.com username and password you might already have. If you search from the Amazon.com site (using the A9.com search box on the left-hand side) I found it logged you into A9.com automatically.

After going to A9.com click here to go to Amazon.com and in the upper left-hand side you'll see a logo advertising Pi / 2 discount (same as one at the top of this post). Click on it and you'll see this text:


Since you've been using A9.com recently, virtually everything at Amazon.com is automatically an additional ð/2% (1.57%) off for you. Collecting this discount is zero effort on your part. It will be applied automatically at checkout (it will happen whether you use the shopping cart or our 1-Click Shopping®). You don't need to do anything to get this discount except keep using A9.com as your regular search engine.

We don't advertise this additional discount that we give in exchange for using A9.com, so if you want your friends to know about it, please tell them. It is probably the only way they'll find out. All they have to do is use A9.com as their regular search engine. They should make sure they are signed in to A9.com (it should be recognizing them by name) so that we can be certain they get credit for their visit.

While the ð/2% discount is a good additional reason to use A9.com it isn't the best reason. A9.com licenses its web search results from the industry leader Google, and then supplements those results with Amazon's Search Inside the Book™ results. The coolest feature is that A9.com keeps track of your search history for you on the server side. To see how this works, do some A9 searches from your computer at work and then sign in to A9.com from your computer at home.

How can we afford this additional ð/2% discount?

Sponsored links revenue -from the small text-based ads on A9.com and Amazon.com search results pages -will help offset costs we incur through the Rewards promotion. With our automatic ð/2% discount, we are effectively sharing with you some of the money we collect from sponsored links, i.e. sharing the pi.

Please use A9.com and tell your friends.

Thank you

neat trick, not much savings as i said, but I love Amazon for the fact they're appealing with a discount but also a bit of playfulness to the educated crowd out there.

 

hi,

do you have to login first or not? i tried without login in to a9.com, neither to amazon.com, and i couldn't get the discount. or did i miss something?

rgds,

 

All you have to do is log in just 1 time at A9. I did it about 2 weeks ago when i read this thread. I bought something on Amazon today and got the discount. I have only used A9 for 1 search. That's it. 2% off is cool if you buy something thats $100.

yep, i try it. End up saving 70 cent or so off a 45 dollar purchase. I guess it's better than nothing....hopefully next time they can give us the full PIE[ ][ ]
