Thanks! I was holding out for another $3 coupon for some books I was thinking of getting, but this works out so much better for the priciest of them.

ETA: Huh. It looks like Kobo's changed their checkout process to go with their birthday makeover and there's no longer even a space to enter any coupon code if discounts can't apply to a book.

I suppose this makes it easier for people who aren't sure whether a particular title is eligible.

Oops, they just hide it under "Have a Gift Card or Promo Code to Redeem?" which makes it an annoying three-step process now.

Incidentally, it looks like Smashwords books are discountable, for those who were wondering in the other thread if they just couldn't have their list price dropped, or would also be excluded from all other promotional offers as well.
