Must...stop...buying..  Why?  Seriously, though, my GC credit is gone!  . . . .I'll have to reload but I'm trying to wait to the first of the month. |

Don't you have an Amazon Visa, Ann? The reason I'm asking, is because through the end of the year, you can get 10 points per dollar on digital purchases using your Amazon Visa, rather than the usual 3 points on Amazon purchases. So once the $3.xx that's on my GC balance is used, I'm going to use mine for Kindle book purchases the rest of the year instead of reloading my GC balance as I also usually do, so I can get the extra points.  Just a thought for you.... |

Yep. . . .I had seen that. . .and is why I haven't hurried to refill the GC credit. I hate all the little stupid charges on the CC statement, but 10 points per dollar is good! |

I hate lots o' little charges too, but I can handle it for a month and a little for 3x the usual points.... Now, if only there were more books in the Daily Deal I were interested in. I think I've only gotten maybe 3 or 4 in the past couple of months. (To bring it back on topic like a good girl!) |

Today's is a good one -- Stephen Ambrose books, regularly $9.99, for $1.99. I've read Undaunted Courage many times - having lived in Washington State and in Montana at different times, they're particularly meaningful for me. Haven't read the other two, but I'm picking them up today.    Undaunted Courage is still showing at $1.99. The other two have gone up to $9.99. |

Thanks for mentioning that the one book was still $1.99. I missed that deal and thought that had all gone back to regular price.

Today's Daily Deal is Alone, Richard Byrd's account of spending a Winter by himself at an advanced station in Antarctica. I read it years ago and have been wishing it would come to Kindle so I could read it again. I give it a three claw salute!
Highly recommended, especially at this low price.

Missed yesterday, sorry... Today's Daily Deal is a good one, a baseball classic:  I read this years ago when it first came out (I think it was my brother's; I was always stealing his books). Great "inside baseball" account...there's things I still quote from this book when discussing baseball... Betsy |

Not familiar with this one, and it doesn't have many reviews, but it's an interesting topic:  Betsy |

Never heard of this one, either. But the Editorial Review section (no blurb) has an interesting interview with the author:  Betsy |

Today's is not as much of a deal, since the price "only" went from $2.99 > $0.99 but it's well reviewed (including by our own Red Adept!) and sounds intriguing. I really should stop looking at this....  It's lendable and text to speech is enabled.. Betsy |
