Heads up, bargain hunters: It's a good day for an Amazon haul.
For today only, the Web giant is offering $8.62 off orders of $50 or more. To take advantage of the discount, just enter the promo code "BIGTHANKS" when you check out.
The offer expires tonight at 11:59 p.m. PT, so make some time to place your order over $50 today. There are some exclusions: the discount doesn't apply to digital content; video games; Amazon gift cards; or orders placed via Alexa, Prime Now, Amazon Restaurants, or any mobile app other than Amazon Shopping.
A discount of $8.62 might seem super random, but Amazon has a good reason for that seemingly arbitrary figure. The company ranked No. 1 in the annual Harris Corporate Reputation Poll, earning a score of 86.27 percent, so it's offering the discount as a thank you to customers.
"We're energized by this recognition and will keep working and inventing on your behalf," Amazon chief Jeff Bezos said in a statement. "These accolades are a direct result of the whole team's obsession over customers, pioneering spirit, commitment to operational excellence and willingness to lean into bold bets."
