One of them was a Daily Deal, so not still on sale today...

The other one, I thought was a Daily Deal, but maybe not, or sometimes "Daily" Deals do last more than one day :

Bad Love by Jonathan Kellerman for $2.99: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FBFN9M/
I'm not usually a huge Kellerman fan, but with the credit, I figured, free - why not...

Other authors I have found that the credit can apply to at least some of their books: Alan Bradley (Flavia de Luce), Andrea Camilleri (Insp Montalbano), Laurie King (Mary Russell, haven't checked other series), Sujata Massey (couple of series), Martin Walker (Bruno, another great series IMO), Fred Vargas (series I've just discovered, and really like), Georges Simenon/Maigret (classic), John Mortimer/Rumpole (another classic), Laura Joh Rowland (Sano Ichiro). These are all mystery authors, since that's mostly what I read in fiction. I also found several non-fiction titles, but they are all expensive enough that even with $5 off, I'm not biting, and so I didn't keep track of them.

It's odd that your credit is showing $3.01 - mine still shows $5, even after the two purchases.

I think what I am going to do is watch for sale titles in the next couple of days - mine now says it expires in 3 days. And then at the end of the second day, well before 3 days, if I haven't found more sale titles, I'll use it on the most recent of one or more of my favorite series, since I usually wait for sales, but don't mind getting to read sooner...

Still not sure if this is limited to three books, in which case I might have only one more, or really $15 total across multiple books (max $5 on each), or something else entirely....
