BBI remains an Amazon.com/Giants Shop affiliate

Eric from BBI : Admin : 2/6/2016 9:54 am
In the blue menu bar, you will see "BBI Shop" with drop-down links to Amazon.com and Apparel (Giants Shop). BBI is an affiliate for both vendors. If you do your shopping through those links, BBI gets paid a small commission for the sale (which in no way impacts the price you pay).

Thank you to those who have purchased their products through these links!

thanks

It might just be me, but when I click the BBI store button while in the forum it simply reloads the current forum page.

In order to get to the store I have to click to the BBI home page, and then open the store from there.

Just a heads up..

If you bookmark Amazon's home page immediately after being sent there via the BBI link, you can just use that bookmark going forward. You don't have to revisit BBI every time. Just use that bookmark to visit Amazon and BBI gets a cut.

Does he get a cut on any purchases via the link or only items listed in his store?

If you click on the "Amazon.com" link under "BBI Shop", he gets a cut on all purchases you make during that shopping session.
DONE

I had my wife try it on a Droid and the menu bar as a whole didn't seem to work at all on her Droid. Do have that problem too?

Regarding your other question, the URL link to Amazon from the menu bar has a unique string that tells Amazon that the buyer is a BBI patron. So as long as you access Amazon through that URL (or bookmark that URL), that will work.

The BBI Amazon "books/dvd" link is a unique page in itself.
Done and have

Been doing all my Amazon shopping this way!! Every lil bit helps and like you said it doesn't cost us anything!!
Yes

It appears the nav bar doesn't work at all when I am in the forum. Clicking on anything reloads the current page/thread . While in the main site it works fine.

I cut and pasted the BBI/Amazon link to my favorites buttons so that I can't forget to do it.
