Amazon Holiday Voting - Give it a try Empty Amazon Holiday Voting - Give it a try

Post by Lori Thu Nov 20, 2008 10:36 am

I always do this, and I spam my friends and family so they have a chance to try for this, too.

Amazon has been having this fun, crazy, special holiday pricing promotion for a few years now. What it is is a CHANCE to be able to purchase specific products at a crazy low price. Chances are low that you'll be able to purchase these special items at their promotional prices because

1. You need to VOTE for the winning product
2. Your name has to be CHOSEN to have a chance to purchase
3. You need to log in and snag one before they're all gone, because more names are chosen than products are available.

Just go and Vote for the deal you want to see available. http://promotions.amazon.com/gp/cv/

There are 6 categories, 3 items to choose from in each category. If you don't vote for the winning item you will not have the chance to be chosen to purchase. So it's important to vote for the item that is way ahead in the voting. Here are the winners so far (not even close, these WILL be the winning items):

Round 1: Go Blu: Family Bundle
Round 2: Go Play: EyeCLops Night Vision
Round 3: Go High Def: 46" HDTV
Round 4: Go Mobile: Asus EEEpc
Round 5: Go Your Way: TomTom GPS
Round 6: Go Crazy: KitchenAide Mixer

From the Website:

Welcome to Amazon Customers Vote 2008, your chance to compete for our most ridiculous deals of the season. The products that get the most votes in each of six rounds will be offered at ridiculous deal prices, and the runners-up will also be offered at slightly smaller discounts. (But they'll still be sweet deals.)
Step 1: Vote.
Browse our six rounds of great products, and vote for the ones you'd like to buy at an amazing discount.

Step 2: Check E-mail.
Check your e-mail the day before each buying round to see if you've been randomly selected to participate in the race to buy.

Step 3: Go!
If selected, make sure you come back and log-in early on race day. We will have many more participants than deals, so the race is on. Good luck!

Keep in mind:
You may vote in all six rounds on the same day if you like.
The day before each buying round, you will be notified by e-mail if you've been selected to participate in the race to buy. You may also return to this page to find out whether you were selected.
Customers Vote is a race. If you're randomly selected to participate in the race to buy, you still need to check what time the buying starts for each deal that round and log-in early, as we expect to have many more people participating than we have deals available.
If selected, you may choose to purchase any or all of the items for that round, not just the product you voted for, as long as supplies are available.

Thanks! I voted. Most of the items I wouldn't be interested in but there are a couple I'm hoping to get!

Me too, Dawn! I'd go for the 46" tv, too. I'm drooling over it. Heck, even the Night Vision goggles would be cool! And my son has a GPS on his Christmas Wish List at Amazon.

I didn't vote for the TV because we just bought a 50" a couple months ago (plus I didn't think they would ship that to Canada). I didn't read about the night vision goggles, so I voted for something else! They would have been cool. I live surrounded by woods, so it would have been nice to take a peek around outside before I ventured out after dark to make sure no wild animals are lurking around.
