3SUV9A Worked for me. 50% off. Thanks!

Here’s the thing about Kobo discounts. First of all, Kobo’s business model is different than Amazon’s. Amazon gives things away to lure people in. They make up for it by hiking the prices on other things. Secondly, Kobo’s discounts are almost never global. They are trapped by agency pricing. The codes work for certain books from certain publishers for certain periods of time. This is clear in the emails the codes arrive in, complete with link to the select books on sale, but gets confusing when the codes are shared in forums like this. Thirdly, all of this is annoying, especially the price discrepancies, but Kobo has limited clout to dictate prices. I’ll pay an extra buck or two to buy from Kobo for the convenience of ordering straight off my Kobo. If you strip DRM, however, it makes more sense to buy where the prices are lowest.
