				Kobo VIP users: What do you redeem your points on?
			 
			
			Just wondering if people here prefer to redeem their points on impulse purchases, or save them for when wishlisted books, or mix of them.

			I try to keep enough points to redeem for next year's subscription to VIP (#1 priority)... and if I have more points, I'll choose a random title.

			I haven't redeemed any points yet. Some will go on next year's VIP membership.

			I tend to use the VIP points on discounted books, as the points needed to redeem also goes down.    |

			Mostly, I save and use for books that don't go on sale very often, or don't go on sale for very good prices.   That usually means nonfiction for me.
