I can't speak to the cumulative effect of this type of buying but I can only take responsibility for my budgetary decisions

(I have a Kindle so my primary bookstore is Amazon; my only motivation to shop at Kobo is a good coupon).
I am on tight budget so I will wait on my monthly titles till I have a good discount. Fictionwise has been getting the business that Kobo previous got from me because of Kobo's lack of good coupons. I'm a frugal person and I always go with lowest price or best deal. I rarely buy a book over 7.99 and when I do it's an agency book so a 20% 1 time discount isn't going to help much on my regular buys which run $3.89 book at Kobo. I was buying gift cards from Kobo and shopping that way to avoid fees but that's on hold now.

I admit Kobo spoiled us but if I can't get a good discount I will just go back to Books On Board and use their rewards program.
