Wow! Check out this awesome deal to get up to $23 worth of credit in the Amazon Appstore! You don’t have to download the apps mentioned in the steps below – you just need to purchase them to get the credits. Apparently, you can even purchase apps and get the credits even if the app isn’t compatible with your device. Here’s how it works…

Log into your amazon account and download these five FREE apps! Each free app you purchase gives you 200 coins, for a total of 1,000 free coins. Amazon Coins are worth $.01 each, so 1,000 coins is equivalent to $10. Double check to make sure each of these apps is still free and you can still earn coins when you purchase them.

Here’s the list with a link to each app:

• Food Network In the Kitchen
• iHeartRadio – Free Music & Internet Radio
• Strawberry Shortcake Bake Shop – Dessert Maker Game for Kids in Preschool and Kindergarten
• Don’t step the white tile
• Dr. Panda’s Restaurant – FREE – Cooking Game For Kids

When you’re done purchasing all 5 apps, you should have 1,000 coins ($10) that you can use to purchase any other apps in the Appstore. You can also earn 2,000 Amazon Coins ($20) when you purchase Grand Theft Auto San Andreas for $6.99 or 699 coins, though. Use the 1,000 Coins you earned above and earn 2,000 MORE Amazon Coins! In the end, you should have 2,301 Amzon Coins, or $23.01, to spend on Amazon Appstore apps – all without spending a dime out of pocket!

1,000 Coins – 699 Coins + 2,000 Coins = 2,301 Coins ($23.01)
