So far I have only redeemed one free coupon. I am waiting to submit more purchases since they are only good for two years from the time you submit. I figured I'd wait until I have at least 6 saved up.

For the books I tend to purchase the hardcover and digital editions have all been eligible for rewards, just not the paperback release. I have been purchasing mostly new releases with the occasional backlist if the digital version is one I need and it goes on sale.

There were several normally $7.99 backlist titles I purchased last year for $1.99 during a sale which is the only reason I got to 12 titles as soon as I did.

I do not think it's the best rewards program, but since I would buy the books anyway I decided I might as well be enrolled in it.
