Yes, absolutely. At one point I made about $100 through amazon affiliates ( a link on Slashdot, actually, quite possibly the only time social media has made me money).
What happened was, I linked to a book on programming that was relevant, and being broke at the time, put it as an affiliate link.
Someone looked at the book, and went on to buy $2300 or so of camera gear. I got the 4% commission on the whole bundle. You get to see exactly what people purchased (though not, of course, individually, but "X of Y")
It's very interesting, if you've never worked with Amazon Affiliates, it's extremely rich data they provide.
