Just to point out, the TAXDAY discount gives and takes away. If you use it on a 100% micropay rebate title then you actually pay the 15% right back as it decreases the Micropay rebate. Either way it is a wash so it really does not matter is one uses the code or not.

For example on a $9.99 title with a 100% MP rebate you get $9.99 back. Using the 15% code the title costs something like $8.49 and you get $8.49 back. The only difference is your upfront cost is less now but you lose on the rebate end. Net result is the 15% does not help on 100% MP rebate titles as much as titles w/o any MP rebate. Same goes for any title with a MP rebate but to a lesser degree.
