I'm always delighted when I find that Kobo haven't matched an Amazon price reduction yet, as for a tiny amount of admin I get a 10% reduction on the already low Amazon price.
I keep a credit balance at Kobo, so I buy books using that balance, and the price difference (+10% of the lower price) gets credited back to the balance.
Checking my spreadsheet
, it looks like I've saved just over £13 from the extra 10% on price matches in the past year. Not bad on a £236 overall spend.
