STEEM+Purse+ShapeShift = Huge Discounts at Amazon (15%+). I'll tell you how!
First and foremost big thanks to ShapeShift.io!
At Purse.io we've been giving people amazing discounts on Amazon thanks to bitcoin for years thanks to our unique capability to provide liquidity to Amazon Giftcard holders who have no way to receive a liquid currency aside from the Amazon Credit (think Amazon Mechanical Turk workers, etc).
If you're curious to learn more about Purse, here's a recent review from one of our users :D
Last year we partnered with Shapeshift to enable our Shoppers to convert any of their digital assets to bitcoin to spend on our platform. Thanks to this recent addition of STEEM, ALL STEEM USERS CAN NOW SHOP ON AMAZON as easily as a few clicks. As soon as STEEM dollars are added to Shapeshift, you'll be able to spend those, too
We've a nice video that outlines how to use Shapeshift/Purse to start converting your funds and saving big today: https://support.purse.io/how-to/shop-using-shapeshift-io/

Take it one step farther. Buy an iPad for 15% off and then turn around and sell it. Rinse, repeat, and voila, you've got yourself a nice, little side hustle to pay down some debt or buy more Steem Power. :)

Purse only works for US-based addresses (4% of humans), sadly.
Those of us who have opted out of that regime are left out in the cold. :(
