    Do you mean discount codes or actual vouchers?

    Discount codes and Amazon are unfortunately worlds apart- they simply do not do them, or in the rare chance they do (they did one about 8 months ago I think) its on something completely random like jewellery (which is not something most people think to look for on Amazon)

    So instead you can try to obtain vouchers. These are better as you get more choice and a better time frame for use.
    The best way I know of is via survey sites and review sites. If you go to the freebie forum there are many that get spoken about. Actual vouchers can take years (though many less then that) to get, and it does mean taking surveys or writing reviews to get them. (Not so bad if you don't mind surveys.

    Some survey sites I know of that do Amazon vouchers are
    Lightspeed (about 3 months of surveys for a £10 voucher. 1 survey varies from being a prize draw entry, 50 points or up to 110 points. You need 1100 points for a £10 voucher.)
    Dooyoo (1x500 plus word review = 50p from Amazon, you can claim your voucher once you have written 20 reviews)
    ToLuna (varies! some people take one or two months for a £10 amazon voucher, others take 6 months plus! Then they take about 8 weeks to email the voucher to you. Surveys vary from around 1000 to around 4000 and you need 60000 to claim a £10 voucher.)
    IPSOS: (Again, take a long while doing surveys, 780= £5 Amazon vouchers. Many surveys have no actual points value, but the ones that do are not very high at all, anything from 10 points.)
    Writing reviews on Amazon: (Having never done this myself I do not know how it works out exactly, but you write a review and once you get past 20 and have each clicked on by a reader of the review to say its helpful, you get awarded a voucher.)

    Its up to you if you are prepared to wait, but with Amazon, its the least likely place to offer vouchers without something similar to the above.

    Isn't it free delivery over £5 on amazon anyway?

    They don't do discount codes BTW.
