$10 Bonus for Amazon.com

It's time to dig up all that change you have sitting around. Coinstar has a promotion right now where you earn a $10 bonus when you cash in at least $40 in change for an Amazon.com e-certificate (or other retailers such as Lowe's and Borders).

How it works:

1. Bring your coins to a Coinstar machine. They have them at Wal-mart and Shop n Save, but check the Coinstar locator at www.coinstar.com.

2. Choose e-certificate from Amazon.com (which gives you full value for your coins). You can spend your coin pour right away at Amazon.com

3. Your $10 promo code will be at the bottom of your Coinstar/Amazon.com receipt.

4. Go to www.coinstar.com and submit your promo code online.

Rumor has it you can do multiple transactions, but you have to enter different email addresses when you enter the promo code online. I'm heading to Coinstar today!

** I tried a couple Coinstar machines that didn't have the option for e-certificates. The new Shop n Save on K & Mexico Loop Rd. has the option. Hurry, the offer ends 12/22.
