Once they cut way back on the rewards points I stopped buying from Kindle. It became impossible for me to earn points fast enough to convert into a purchase before they expired.
Every time I see the double points e-mail, I feel insulted, as the default should be closer to that.

Regular purchases should be 5 points per dollar, with double giving you 10. I'd probably spend 2-3x as much if that were the case, even though I'm only getting a few more percent discount.

And, yeah, the many layers of expiration (points expire, and credits expired before they removed that step, and points require building up to 300 to use) didn't make me buy more to get a reward. It made me stop buying because I couldn't ever get a reward.

Not that I'm aware of. The best deal was the £1 credit for ebook purchases when choosing slower shipping. But that stopped some time ago.

I'm down to less than $15 of Kobo credit. I last purchased a $60 + $10 card in May.

Since then, I redeemed an additional $10 gift card from one of my survey sites, and an unexpected $20 giftcard from myself on my birthday (looking through my records, sent it a few days before my stroke).

Oh, and I'm suffering a lot of indecision on exactly which book I should spend my last credit on...
