In brief
Amazon quietly dropped a three-month Audible trial at a dollar a month, and you can claim it before the October sale starts. If you already pay for Prime, three months of Audible costs $3 total, which is one audiobook credit a month for a dollar. Originally reported by New York Post.
Prime Day returns in October
Amazon has set Prime Big Deal Days for October 6 and 7, its warm-up act for Black Friday. Early deals are already landing.
Audible for a dollar a month
Eligible Prime members can start a three-month trial of Audible Standard for $3 total. That is one audiobook of your choice each month for a buck.
“you'll get one audiobook of your choice for just $1 every month for three months”
Prime is the gate
The offer is locked to Amazon Prime subscribers. No Prime account, no dollar audiobooks.
“You'll need to be an Amazon Prime subscriber to sign up and try Audible for $1 today.”
What Prime costs
Prime runs $14.99 a month or $139 a year. New subscribers get a 30-day free trial before any payment starts.
Prime's other perks
Beyond members-only deals, you get Prime Reading's free books, Prime Video streaming, and fast free shipping.
One credit, any book
Audible Standard hands you a credit every month, good for any title in the catalog. Podcasts in the app come with it.
The price you skip
Audible Standard normally costs $8.95 a month. The trial drops that to a dollar for the first three.
Where to spend the credits
The writer is an audiobook regular and picks across three lanes: current bestsellers, books heading to screen, and Audible originals.

The main idea
