9 Better, Cheaper Ways To Search Amazon

Looks like some useful stuff here if you are a regular amazon.com shopper like me.

The Amazon home page has somewhere around 16 different sales pitches, and more unnecessary graphics than a MySpace page. Here are 9 money-saving ways to shop the site without waiting for another customized ad to render.

Humm, personally I'm pretty satisfied with Amazon's regular interface, and find their suggestions pretty useful sometimes (yeah, amazingly enough I do have the willpower to not automagically buy everything :D ).

I'd feel pretty suspicious of using something like the Amazon Light site, where your traffic goes through that site... I feel fine about amazon collecting my browsing/spending habits and credit card info, but a third-party site? Nah.
