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.

Geoff, I want to thank you for all the effort you put into your various posts where you calculate out the advantages/disadvantages of situations. Numeracy is not a strong point of mine, and your contributions have done so much of the ground work for me.
