$10 free Amazon from Coinstar with $40 coin dump (restrictions)

Ooh la la!  I was excited this morning to get an email from Coinstar, similar to the one earlier that addressed a $10 bonus promotion for redeeming at least $40 worth of coins for select retailers.  Notably absent was Amazon (I was bummed), but now I'm not since the new email now lists Amazon as a partner for this promotion!

Simply take $40 or more worth of coins to a participating Coinstar machine and claim your $40+ coin dump for an Amazon e-certificate (you can spend it the moment you get home).  You'll take your promo code and enter it online to claim your $10 reward.

Oh wait, the blog title said (restrictions).  Yes, it isn't until you read the fine print that you will see the $10 has strings:
Terms and Conditions

To receive your $10 Amazon.com TOY & GAME BONUS CODE (Valid for TOY and GAME purchases fulfilled by Amazon.com* only), follow these instructions carefully. $10 Amazon.com TOY & GAME BONUS CODE redeemable at www.amazon.com/toys.
The good thing is that it should come quickly:

Once you have completed the claim form you will receive a notification that your submission is complete and your $10 AMAZON.COM TOY & GAME BONUS CODE will be emailed to you within 24 hours. If terms and conditions are not met, the $10 AMAZON.COM TOY & GAME BONUS CODE offer will not be valid.

So if you have a little Amazon shopping left to do anyway and are planning on getting toys and games for the kiddos, haul your coin jar to a participating kiosk.
