I am always buying books from Amazon. I think you could find your mother something on Amazon especially if she likes to read. It’s good to know that you are not trying to con anyone. I think the readers respect bloggers that are really try to help them. I think that Amazon is a pretty good program to promote because everybody loves buying from Amazon.

I have to agree about random things, although I have sold three copies of one book I linked to at Amazon in the past month, among my other sales. The title, you ask? "Crash Proof: How to Profit From the Coming Economic Collapse." Of course, that doesn't explain the Terry Women's Cite X Bicycle Saddle - Black - 2117100 someone else bought. I wonder about the person's train of thought. "Oh, cool, a financial article. A financial book on Amazon, looks good. ..... I have always wanted a bike seat!!! Must buy NOW!"

Some of those numbers/letters to the right of the loooong URL will be the code that tells Amazon who to kick down the affiliate's share to. After many Amazon purchases over the years I recommend the firm. Nothing but good luck with them. As with all shopping, compare prices. I have found better pricing at local brick-and-mortar stores and, at times, Amazon had the better price, sometimes a lot better. Also look for the declaration a goody qualifies for free shipping. If you live in a geographical area with minimal retail facilities Amazon can give you access to goodies you would have to trek across the land to obtain at a store many miles away. What with the cost of gas nowadays Amazon is becoming a handy way to save time and money. I also appreciate the ratings and comment aspect of Amazon. Beware, though, some of the ratings and reviews are placed by shills and touts. I found a series of books from a small publishing house where the majority of reviews, all excellent, were from those working for that publisher!!!!! Amazon can also be entertaining; some of the reviews have entered the annals of Web hilarity. Have you read or heard of the infamous gallon jug of Tusca milk no longer for sale at Amazon? Well, go take a peak: http://tinyurl.com/4aecl3 Egads, up to 990 reviews for an item no longer sold. Amazon keeps the review section open for entertainment value. Read enough of the reviews and you will see mine. Amazon can be a good source of products and entertainment.

I remember that movie. We had a VHS tape of the movie that we taped off the tv. I also have a Disney movie called Polly that was taped off tv. I'm still waiting for Disney to re-release that. Great article, as usual, Nick. I need to start Stumbling these (I read your articles at work, so I would have to remember to go back to them at home to Stumble them). @Sara

I often wonder why people click on my link for a book about "Square Foot Gardening" and wind up buying "Tupac's Greatest Hits" once they wind up at Amazon. It's an interesting case study in human behavior! Hilarious!
