Tonight my wife informed me that Amazon has credit cards... So I checked it out and applied for one since I only have 1 other credit card. In 5 minutes I got an email saying I had a $2000 limit and free Prime for a month, and no yearly fee. So naturally I spend $700 in about 20 minutes just clicking on shit. Why did they have to make it so easy?

Because they know most people will spend $700 in 20 minutes clicking on shit.

It's 24% after 12 months of no interest





I bit too.  But I only spent $350.

Ya swallowed it.  

BTW check Amazon's prices - there are often better prices elsewhere.

Amazon has a pretty decent rewards program, if you pay attention to that sort of thing, you still get the rewards even if you pay off the balance every month.



As a matter of fact most cards that offer rewards still give you the points if you pay it off monthly, my wife and I rack up about $500 a year in rewards on a BOA Visa that gets paid off twice a month, it has no annual fee, and no interest since we don't carry a balance.

yeah I forgot about that bait.  5% rewards

Lol. I buy more than my fair share on Amazon. Those people there have ruined shopping at a store for me. I literally buy most things off their site Bc my mindset is free shipping and no tax plus I don't have to drive anywhere wasting gas and time Bc I know what I want. Plus reviews helps too

I've been using an Amazon card for at least 3 years. I pay it off every month. The reward points make it well worth shopping on Amazon.com.

I pay mine off every month. Theyve offered to raise my limit more times than I can remember, but I refuse to pay interest on that card so Ive never taken it. I use it for everything, I racked up about $450 in rewards in a year. 3% from Amazon, 2% on gas and restaurants, and 1% on everything else.

And they add the 12 months of interest if it's not paid off.

I got it simply due to the 130.00 bluetooth headset I was ordering becoming 35 after the reward offer.



Since then, we pay it off monthly and just use the reward points.

Just a heads up, there's probably a 50/50 chance the TQ you ordered is counterfeit and will break the first time if you ever use it.  I've received fake CATs from Amazon, Inc. in the last year (not a third party seller).

See these for more details:

On electronics, Best Buy often has better prices, and in the few cases they don't--just show them any online price on your phone and they'll match it in the store.

I've actually begun to go back to brick and mortar stores, even with same day delivery in my area.  I'm tired of Amazon' bullshit with "Prime" shipping, that magically makes the item $10 more for prime shipping, and $20 for prime same day shipping.

They're starting to go full retard.  I pay the $100 already, the gimmick of $10 more for "free" prime shipping that now no longer is 2 days, but include the weekend, more like 4-5 days.  Order on a Friday, ships on a Monday, then arrives the next Wednesday.

I like the 0% interest deal on larger purchases.

This resulted in me signing up for the Amazon card as well.

Thanks OP.

I had forgotten that one of my cards capped my rewards, so I might as well get cash back on all of the Amazon things I buy.  Going to purchase a PEX tool now with my "winnings".  /high five

Because they know the world is full of people (like you) who can't manage their money and will by all kinds of crap they don't need, just because they can put it on a credit card and make payments on it ....

I can relate to this. Back in 2006-2007 had an amex with a 3-45 limit, seemed like it went up every statement. Ended up at like a 22k limit.

2009 came and they took it back with a zero balance.

Not sure how to review this product. My husband used it and didn't complain. I didn't ask the livestock how the felt.
