At least it is applied to the member price and not the retail price when you buy, so I'll just check the wishlist for those books member priced under $20. I have a fair number, so not a problem. Some of mine are as low as $9 member priced, so maybe 2 books for that $20. This is a member's reward after all.
edited to add: By the way, Audible counts any audiobook, even one only an hour and a half long for this deal.

Two points, but they may well have changed the rules since I last looked!
I saw that the qualifying books had to be at least three hours long. Of course if you listen at double speed, that's an hour and a half!
It's Amazon credit, not Audible credit, and it expires in 30 days. Nice, but not exactly a cash equivalent. For me without Prime (so I'd have to spend at least $25 to get shipping on hard goods) and with the 30-day expiration, having to spend $14.95 to get it is very close to a wash, since the additional audiobook (from the credit I'll have to purchase to stay a member) is truly coals to Newcastle. Just barely worth it. Not that I can't find $20 worth of Kindle books, but again, I'll have to add at least some cash to the total at that.
