Shameless BBI Amazon.com Holiday Plug

Eric from BBI : Admin : 12/6/2019 8:20 am

A shameless, yet friendly, reminder that BBI is an affiliate for Amazon.com.

If you shop at Amazon and start your shopping through the BBI link in the "BBI Shop" tab above in the blue menu bar, a small percentage of your purchase goes to BBI.

This does NOT affect the price you pay!

Thank you for considering to support the site!
BBI Amazon.com - ( New Window )

Not shameless at all ..

thanks for sharing, will use it from now on.

Does BBI lose their % if we use Amazon Smile?

while initially going to Amazon using the BBI Shop link?

I don't think so. Not sure. But do what you have to do to save money.

Food for thought.

I didn't think about it. I only posted it now because a kind BBI member e-mailed me this morning to remind me.

I think it

Giantophile : 12/6/2019 10:35 am : link

likely would affect it if you use amazon smile, but I'm not sure.

BTW Eric, Amazon smile isn't to save money, it's an amazon program that donates 0.5% of your purchase to the charity of your choosing when you click through.

Curious

Do the shameless spammers donate to the site?

I'm ashamed that I never remember this

LakeGeorgeGiant : 12/6/2019 11:20 am : link

until after I've done my holiday shopping.

Next year give me a heads up before black Friday Eric. :/

I don't know. All I know is that if you start shopping via the link, I usually get some credit.

This is great and I am using it. It would be a constant but subtle reminder if you put a permanent Amazon link icon on the Corner Forum and Home Page.

Not a bad ideal. Finding space may be a problem.

Understood. It does not have to be large as long as it stays in the same place and you tell us where it is and that it helps you when you set it up.
