Tips & Warnings
If you purchase a combination of items that are eligible and ineligible for super saver shipping, you will be charged shipping only on the items that are ineligible.
You can find out about the day's Gold Box Deals by clicking the gold gift package in the upper right corner of most pages in the Amazon.com website.
If you are purchasing a qualifying item to receive the free item, make sure you add the free item to your cart yourself. It will not automatically be added to your cart. Also, make sure the item is free before you finalize the transaction.
