Hurry! $20 Amazon Gift Card for $10!

01/18/2011 By Charlene 66 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links, please see my disclosure policy.

WOW! If you hurry over here to Living Social you can score a $20 gift card for Amazon for just $10!! ย If you are new to Living Social you should see a $5 credit in your account when you register. *As of this morning they are no longer allowing the $5 credit to apply to this promotion.

There is a limit of 1 per person and the card does not expire!!

You can register for a new account here and then go here to see the deal directly.

For US customers only! ย As of posting they have sold 10,000 already so I would not wait to order!

**I bought one and it went through fine but it appears the site is crashing now. ย So you might need to refresh and keep trying….

    Awesome! After several attempts, my transaction went through. ๐Ÿ™‚ Thank you!

    I just purchased it and it said it has 31 hours left? Maybe try in a couple hours or sometime tomorrow?

  4. Charlene says

    01/18/2011 at 11:16 PM

    Oh I don’t know Lyndi. I took me about 6 minutes or maybe less to post and they sold over 2,000 in that time period. I can’t imagine they have an endless supply. At some point they will run out.

    Took a bit to get through, but got it for $5!!! I hope you get credit for new sign ups – gotta support the NorCal (even though I live down south now!)

    My husband and I each got one–but even though we are both new to Living Social, we didn’t get the $5 credit. Any ideas?

  7. Jordan says

    01/18/2011 at 11:36 PM

    Yay! Got it for 5 bucks! I have been doing so much shopping on Amazon lately, I love the free 2 day shipping…thanks!

  8. Charlene says

    01/18/2011 at 11:37 PM

    No I am sorry Donna ๐Ÿ™ I think the site is a mess right now- this deal is crazy. I have a handful that said they got it and a handful that said they didn’t…

  9. Laura Williams says

    01/18/2011 at 11:47 PM

    Woot! Love this deal!

    Thanks! I got through the site with no problem and purchased card, but no $5 credit for a new acct.

  11. Elizabeth says

    01/19/2011 at 12:01 AM

    It worked for me! Yee-haw!

  12. Charlene says

    01/19/2011 at 12:02 AM

    I am sorry ๐Ÿ™ I tried to make one for my hubs to test it and didn’t get the $5 either. I don’t care. I am thrilled with half off ๐Ÿ˜‰

  13. Faith says

    01/19/2011 at 12:05 AM

    I didn’t get the $5 off but it still is a great deal!

  14. Mel says

    01/19/2011 at 12:10 AM

    Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Charlene!! I hope you’re getting referral credit for this! You are such a doll! My hubby has had his eye on a new game for the Wii. This will make him so happy!

  15. Rachel says

    01/19/2011 at 12:14 AM

    I just got through on my cell phone with no issues at all, took 5 minutes! So maybe try that way. I also got the 5 credit. But there were over 40,000 sold! I wouldn’t be surprised if they got canceled

  16. Rachelle R says

    01/19/2011 at 12:17 AM

    love this deal!! i bought a living social deal back in october ($10 credit for $5) so i didn’t have to pay anything extra OOP for this deal! yay! also i was able to create an account for my husband and get the $5 credit. i had to use a different computer though.

  17. sheila says

    01/19/2011 at 12:20 AM

    Just in case anyone is having the same issue as me, I wasn’t able to see the deal, kept pressing “Today’s deal” and nothing happened. Finally I did “more deals” and clicked on a random area and it showed right up and then no problems

  18. Hailey MacDonald says

    01/19/2011 at 12:24 AM

    Does anyone know if this will be an e-gift card or one actually mailed out?
    I’m hoping/assuming that the codes will be emailed out, thats what I felt it led me to believe after I was able to score the deal, but I couldn’t find any fine print one way or the other…..

  19. Kahra says

    01/19/2011 at 12:48 AM

    You only get the $5 credit when you sign up through a referral link. I’ve had like 6 friends get it through mine. Awesome deal!

  20. Jessica says

    01/19/2011 at 12:59 AM

    Rachelle, did you use a different debit/credit card to pay for your husbands? I created an account in my husbands name but I’m reluctant to use my debit card and he is at work, so I can’t get his card number….

  21. Katie says

    01/19/2011 at 1:05 AM

    Hailey, it says that it’ll be available to use tomorrow…I also think I saw somewhere that these are emailed out after the deal has closed. Hope I read it right!

    Charlene, I didn’t get it for $5.00 on one computer, but I did send an email to them, so we’ll see! You’re supposed to be able to get a refund if you change your mind within 5 hours of your purchase.

    I signed my hubby up for one on our other computer, and he got it. Awesome! Thanks so much!

  22. Kelly says

    01/19/2011 at 1:58 AM

    You’re right…the site is a bit messy! I tried multiple emails to see about the $5 credit and was just going to give up and purchase without but when I went to buy it had applied the $5. So I got it…YAY!
    Very nice…thank you!

  23. Jane says

    01/19/2011 at 4:42 AM

    You get the $5 credit for the new account but when I checked out with this deal it said that you can’t use deal bucks for it. Anyway, it is still a good deal regardless. The deal bucks are listed under “my account” and “deal bucks.”

  24. Danielle says

    01/19/2011 at 5:24 AM

    How do you apply the bucks? It charged me the $10 even though it shows the credit?! GRR

  25. Barbra says

    01/19/2011 at 5:37 AM

    Hi Charlene,

    When I clicked on the sight the the deal didn’t come up. I then clicked on “more deals” and clicked on “palm beaches” and the deal did come up. I did not get the $5.00 credit though for being a new customer but still a fantastic deal for my favorite online store!

  26. Danielle says

    01/19/2011 at 5:39 AM

    Ok, it says you cannot use deal bucks for this deal, so they must have fixed that. But, I did order 5! I’ve been looking at MagnaTiles for my son’s 5th birthday, $100! They just became $50, which is so much more reasonable! Thanks!

  27. Katie says

    01/19/2011 at 5:50 AM

    Just ordered the gift card thanks for another awesome deal! My account did receive the $5 credit but it say I could not use it on this purchase any idea why? Thanks for all of your wonderful post and helping me save my family ALOT of money!

  28. Ashley says

    01/19/2011 at 5:54 AM

    It shows i have a $5 credit but I don’t think it was used towards my transaction ๐Ÿ™
    I also got one for my husband but his account didn’t have a credit. Either way, it’s a great deal! I love amazon!

  29. Tracy says

    01/19/2011 at 6:15 AM

    Got my $5 credit, but it says I can’t use it on this deal. ๐Ÿ™

  30. Misty says

    01/19/2011 at 6:25 AM

    Thank you so much! This will make for another great diaper deal! I did get a $5 sign up bonus, but wasn’t able to use it for this deal. I am still thrilled with half off though! Thanks again.

  31. meryl says

    01/19/2011 at 6:33 AM

    took me about 2 seconds under Orange County CA and got the deal no problems! Awesome- thank you!

  32. Rei says

    01/19/2011 at 6:34 AM

    No $5 credit for me (or hubby) either but the deal is awesome! I did however go thru swagbucks after I signed up and got my 280 swagbucks within 5 minutes ๐Ÿ™‚

  33. Katie says

    01/19/2011 at 6:34 AM

    They won’t let me use my deal bucks on this deal.

  34. Cory says

    01/19/2011 at 6:39 AM

    I did not get the $5 credit either, but I don’t really care since this is a good deal even without it. I wonder why some of us didn’t get the $5 credit as a new sign up?

  35. jill b. says

    01/19/2011 at 6:48 AM

    Question: my husband and I each have living social accounts. Since it says limit 1 per person, is it inappropriate for us to each purchase one? Just want to stay honest!

  36. Melissa says

    01/19/2011 at 6:48 AM

    Still working as of 8:45 EST this morning. About 155,000 sold and it says it’s still going for 23 more hours. I got a $5 credit for signing up, but it didn’t apply to this deal. Not sure if I would’ve had to do something to make that happen. I might contact them. If you go to the tab that says Deal Bucks, that’s where I can see my $5.00. If you didn’t think you got yours, you may have… might want to check there.

  37. Elizabeth says

    01/19/2011 at 6:53 AM

    I got 5 “deal bucks” in my account after I made the amazon purchase.

  38. Melissa says

    01/19/2011 at 6:59 AM

    Wow! I just bought one for my husband, too. It’s now 8:57 EST and 168,000 have been sold! It still says 23 hours remaining. I made sure to sign him up for an account before putting the “deal” in his “cart” and I verified that he had his $5 deal bucks in his account. But when I went to purchase the gift card, a message came up saying sorry… you can’t use deal bucks towards this purchase. Oh well. Still a great deal!

  39. Elizabeth says

    01/19/2011 at 7:04 AM

    I have a $5 credit, but it says I can’t use it for this deal. : (

  40. Barbie says

    01/19/2011 at 7:05 AM

    Well, it’s 6am CA time and the deal is still available… yah!

  41. Charlene says

    01/19/2011 at 7:13 AM

    Jill, I think you can get one of each of you. It doesn’t say one per household so I would think so.

  42. Jennifer says

    01/19/2011 at 7:14 AM

    it just now told me you can’t use dealbucks for this offer…still a good deal though!

  43. Charlene says

    01/19/2011 at 7:19 AM

    If you go through Swagbucks you won’t get the $5.

  44. Jasmine says

    01/19/2011 at 7:20 AM

    WOW! Got mine with no issues.

  45. Charlene says

    01/19/2011 at 7:21 AM

    Katie- they obviously changed it sometime last night/morning. I think 75% off an Amazon gift card was pretty incredibly and I am sure they need to stay in business ๐Ÿ˜‰ I just can’t believe it tis still available!

  46. jessica says

    01/19/2011 at 8:15 AM

    Got It. Thanks!

  47. Kina says

    01/19/2011 at 8:57 AM

    I was excited to see that this is still available but my computer indicated a security warning so I’m hesitant to enter my information. The message says “warning: contains unauthenticated content”. Did anyone else get a message like this?

  48. Karentina says

    01/19/2011 at 9:04 AM

    Woohoo!! Thanks! It went through like a charm….as long as it’s not gonna cancel on me! Got lotsa baby stuff to purchase with Amazon and use Amazon Mom….so this won’t go to waste! ๐Ÿ™‚ And at 8:00 am PST it went through easily – not bogged down at all.

  49. michelle says

    01/19/2011 at 9:49 AM

    Yay, worked for me at 9am PST!!! THANKS!!
