Signed up for Audible, got the Fire for 99.00..

So I needed to exchange my Fire, but decided to get a refund and do the Audible deal since I planned to sign up with them anyway. Kindle Fire is definitely worth 99 dollars..

Congrats!

Why did you need to exchange it?

Thanks.

I had issues with the touch screen not responding to my fingers. At first it was here and there but it grew progressively worse. Other then that, I loved it, at 99 bucks, I love it even more!

Fabulous deal!!!

$14.95 x 12 months isn't something I'd go for to join.

Thanks for sharing though.

Perhaps she planned on getting an Audible membership before she knew of the special offer.

Neither would I. Ends up costing a total of 279.00 for a 100.00 savings. But if you are someone who listens to books more than read them I guess it's a good deal.

Or you could look at it as getting a year of Audible (12 audio books) for $50-$60. Gold plan is $150/year or $15/mo but the first three months are just $8 which means the total price is about $160. That works out to just $4 per book. Not a bad deal at all, if you like audio books.

Haha, yeah you can! It's all in perspective. I tend to break things down into hours worked... So if I make 45.00 an hour it would take me about 6 hours 30mins to pay for the kindle with audible. I think I annoy my husband when I break things down like this though.

It's also good to note that there's a whole huge number of devices that you can get a $100 discount on, not just the Kindle Fire.

Synergi · 12-01-2011, 07:20 PM

Hehe yes I was getting audible anyway. My original kindle Fire was free through mypoints.. Most of the books I want run 22 to 30 dollars.. I can live with 15 a month, pay 100 cash and keep my gift cards hehe...

Do you have to be a new Audible.com customer? I downloaded a free audible book a few days ago and am thinking of signing up.
