Free eBook from Rough Guides Shop

THANKYOUSURVEY

Technically, you have to first be invited to complete a survey, for which you are then rewarded with a coupon code to redeem any eBook for free. However, the code is generic and reusable. You will need to sign up for a free account if you don't already have one. I first opened mine a few years ago and never been bothered by any kind of spam.

  • +2

    and reusable

    not on the same account

    • +2

      if you have a gmail account, you can just add a +1 before the @gmail.com to create a new account yet reused the same email on google.

      • Or dots anywhere in username ;)

      • So you mean something like privatesugar+1@gmail, privatesugar+2@gmail etc

        • +2

          Yep. Anything after the "+" is ignored by gmail

    Confirms works. You get to download in EPUB, MOBI or PDF. This is a good way of trialling this, because I would actually purchase a guide to a location going forward, and I find through past experience that Rough Guides are usually less vanilla than Lonely Planet guides.

    • Agreed. They are more insightful and anecdotal than LP guides, which are now a bit outdated with their listings of hotels, restaurants, museums, etc which people can access more easily through the Internet anyway. Like you, I prefer to have a print copy with me when I travel.

  • Ah, silly question. How do I sign up an account? I don't see a create account button, when I click My Account it only gives me an option to login via Facebook or a email/password. But not the option to create a new account?

    • +1

      If you fill in all the billing details (including email and password) during check out, the system will automatically create an account for you.

      • Great, thank you.

  • Thanks OP Great Find ………. Downloaded a 512 page book on Vietnam in PDF format - Look pretty good.

  • Doesn’t seem to let me download the book I “purchased”. Anyone else having problems

  • just what i needed, thanks!
    fyi you can also download in pdf AND epub AND mobi if you want multiple formats

  • great deal!

  • Mobi is not appearing for me, even after waiting 5, 10, … 120 minutes.

  • Hmm which book to read? I chose Chile.

    Edit: Bah. EPUB not PDF. I prefer PDF every time.
