To get a trial offer to Amazon Prime, put a bunch of items into your Amazon.com shopping cart, select one or two day shipping, and on the final checkout screen you should see the following text:
[Your name], you have been selected to receive a FREE four-month trial of Amazon Prime. If you sign up then you can get unlimited One-Day Shipping for $3.99 per item on over a million items sold by Amazon.com while your trial lasts.
» Learn more & sign up (link added)
Click the link and a javascript-esq pop-up will appear with a HUGE “Sign me up — it’s FREE” button to sign up.
The free Amazon.com Prime trial lasts four months after which they will charge you usual $79 annual fee. They even promise to send you two reminder emails! For my thoughts on Amazon Prime, if you pay for it, read this post.
No Purchase Is Necessary!

http://www.amazon.com/gp/subs/primeclub/signup/main.htmlAnd to prevent it from automatically upgrading you from the trial (free) to the actual ($79/yr), go to Your Account, scroll down and click Manage My Subscriptions, and then click the “Do Not Upgrade” button. I’d still double check after four months to make sure you aren’t charged.

The link does not offer a free trial, just the $79 per year subscription. I guess they changed it?
It appears that some people are offered the free trial and other aren’t. If the link does work, I suggest trying the first method (putting some products in your shopping cart, selecting 1 or 2 day shipping, and hope for the offer). I signed up via the link in the shopping cart but I had to try multiple times (get all the way to the final checkout page and then close it and retry until it appeared).
Good luck!
No workee for me. Bummer.
Well I would first check to make sure the items you are adding to try this with are prime eligible, I got the trial and used it fine
