Latest news from Slickdeal: use Membership Rewards points through Shop with Points at Amazon and you can get $25 off a $50 purchase. Why is this such a good deal? Because there is no requirement on how many MR points you need to use. You can pay just 1 cent with MR points and still pay the rest with your credit card, and you will still receive the full $25 discount—essentially a free $25.

How to Use It
First, click here to go to the Amazon Shop with Points page and enroll your AMEX card that earns Membership Rewards into SWP. Then go shop on Amazon for items sold directly by Amazon.com (third-party sellers do not qualify). You need at least $50 of eligible Amazon-sold merchandise. At checkout, choose the MR-earning card and select to pay $0.01 through Membership Rewards.
Enter promo code "AMEX16EVER". If your total drops by $25, then it worked! If you get an error, it means either you were not targeted or your order does not include at least $50 of merchandise sold directly by Amazon.com.
Final Thoughts
This deal is basically like getting 50% off at Amazon, so it should be easy to find something to buy whether you need it or not. If you do not have anything to buy on Amazon, do not forget that Amazon carries many third-party gift cards, such as GameStop, Subway, Southwest, and more, and those can work too. However, Amazon's own gift cards do not qualify. Were you able to use this deal? Come share your experience.
