...
Also when I tell people that I can get up to 20% discounts on amazon (using purse.io) people are ecstatic about bitcoin. ...

Lol, "get up to 20%."  I actually checked it out, feel Rickrolled now Sad
Technically, you can get up to 100% off.  Your discount depends on how much of a premium people are willing to pay for your BTC over market.

How it works

Firstly, when someone – Alice, say – wants to use bitcoin to purchase items for a discount from Amazon, she deposits bitcoin in her Purse.io account. Then, using a 'share' URL, she imports her Amazon 'wish list' into Purse.io and indicates what level of discount she would like for the items.

Much hilarity ensues.
