When you need to use new money, you do need to think about it (although I've found that by waiting for offers it pays off in the end).

But occassionally you get 100% rebate offers that are valid from your micropay account. You buy the book, and get the money back into your micropay account instantly. Apart from having to have money in your micropay account, they really are free ebooks.

(And, of course, you didn't buy micropay - your bought a 100% rebate book that required paypal/CC to get a micropay balance.)
