If you are paying by credit card then you should have 30-55 days to pay without incuring any interest cost, so if you plan to buy another ebook in that time you would have used your credit before the payment is due and so you won't have lost anything at all by accepting store credit instead of a lower initial price.

Even if you are paying with cash and didn't plan to buy another ebook for a whole year, the amount of interest you would lose by having the £1.14 refund sitting in your Kobo account as a credit instead of in your bank account earning (say) 3% interest would be about £0.03, much less than the £0.42 you saved by using the price match.
