Just in case anyone's looking for one, they're reduced to £55 and there is a promotion for 40% off which runs out today

CadburysTastesVileNow · 31/03/2020 17:17

I'm a prime member; doesn't work for me

greasyspooncafe · 31/03/2020 17:17

Worked for me. £26.99!
Thanks so.much!

AllTheseThingsThatIHaveNotDone · 31/03/2020 17:24

Nah, nowt to do with prime, just joined then cancelled when it didn't work Grin

AllTheseThingsThatIHaveNotDone · 31/03/2020 17:26

Ah x-post Chocolate
No new kindles for me, although in fairness 44.99 isn't bad for an Eater yellow one Daffodil but I cannot justify it right now

AllTheseThingsThatIHaveNotDone · 31/03/2020 17:26

Easter! I clearly have food on the brain Grin

sugarbum · 31/03/2020 17:29

can't get it to work with either my prime account or the non prime account

fussychica · 31/03/2020 17:36

Sadly didn't work for me.Sad

HiDuggee · 31/03/2020 17:42

Not working here, says 'promo code cannot be applied to your purchase' or something when I enter the code. Shame!

LynetteScavo · 31/03/2020 19:53

I got it and I'm prime, but just looked at it again at the extra offer wasn't applied.

I want to get a case, but they're almost as much as I paid for the tablet, so I'm not bothering!

LynetteScavo · 31/03/2020 19:55

And even though I prime it's not common till 5th April, but that's to be expected at the moment. I might need to order so other stuff meanwhile so it all comes at once and I'm not embarrassed and feeling guilty about ordering one thing at a time.

JuanSheetIsPlenty · 31/03/2020 20:02

Not working for me Sad

CaptainBrickbeard · 31/03/2020 20:10

Didn’t work for me either.

zsazsajuju · 31/03/2020 20:16

Worked for me - thanks op

JuanSheetIsPlenty · 31/03/2020 20:20

I wonder what the deciding factor is for who it works for and who it doesn’t.

Zsazsajuju did you use FIREPROMO?

LordStrange · 31/03/2020 20:36

Thanks OP!

'firepromo' worked here.

CalleighDoodle · 31/03/2020 20:47

It didn't work for me. It did work for my husband.

AllTheseThingsThatIHaveNotDone · 31/03/2020 21:22

What is the deciding factor do we reckon?!

Aragog · 31/03/2020 21:25

I bought one for full price at the weekend to watch Disney+. Typical!

Once I saw the reduction I did buy one for dd for her TV as it's less hassle to use than the old Apple TV box and means she won't need to keep moving that between her bedroom tv and the one in the study.

Aragog · 31/03/2020 21:26

Ah wait, it wasn't the tablet I bought. It's the fire stick HD.

TitianaTitsling · 31/03/2020 21:31

Not working for me :( location dependant possibly?

PogoBob · 31/03/2020 21:36

It worked for me, when checking out I notice the discount was shown as:

Qualifying offers:
Tablet Upgrade

Would if it linked to accounts that have previously ordered fire tablets?

LynetteScavo · 31/03/2020 21:44

Possibly, as It would be an upgrade of the tablet we already have.

LynetteScavo · 31/03/2020 21:46

I tried buying another one and it comes up as £44 🤷🏻‍♀️

curlycat · 31/03/2020 22:20

Prime member used FIREPROMO.
Comes up as 44.99 but when you put the code in at checkout I got it for 26.99
