I suppose there's some bean counter in the basement dungeons of Amazon that would tell me I'm wrong though.

Pantry credits I can pretty much say I will never use, and I always opt for the two-day shipping when they're offered, even though I'm in no rush for my order. I'll go for the digital credit except in the rare case when I need my order quickly. I would take a $10 furniture credit even if I didn't have specific items already on my wish list, in the expectation that I might use it eventually.
