You're welcome! I also appreciate your posts. This community is awesome.

It is surprising to me how often these double points events are occurring. Sign of Amazon's desperation, perhaps?

To that point: I just took up yet another offer for 3 free months of Kindle Unlimited, just 5 days after my last "free trial" ended... So definitely worth it to check the Kindle Unlimited page when logged into your Amazon account. That's where my offer popped up.

I'm wondering if they're testing it out one last time before ending it. If they're getting bad feedback from authors or publishers, or finding it's not really bringing in extra sales, I expect it'll go.

I just noticed that when checking out a book at Kindle US, there was an option to just apply my Kindle Rewards points directly, without having to go through the "get a $3 credit for 300 points" thing. I like this a lot better for a couple of reasons. First, because I was able to redeem 199 points for a $1.99 book, without having to have built up 300 points. And second, because when you have a digital credit, then all the prices shown subtract the value of the credit, making everything look cheaper. So you really have to pay attention when you have a digital credit in your account.

Has anyone else seen this? I'll try to attach an image.

If this is a "trial" thing - I hope they keep it.

And it was a big six or big five or whatever they are now - big publisher - book...

I think you still need to accumulate 300 points to earn a reward and the reason you were able to redeem 199 points is because you had 448 points on balance.

When I went to a book page, it showed a balance of 257/300 pts and a message of: "You're only 43 pts away from a $3.00 reward".

Hmmm...that makes some sense (i.e. having a minimum of 300 points), but in my case, the book was only $1.99, and I didn't end up with a $1.01 credit over, it just deducted the points. And I still had 249 points towards my next 300 for a $3 credit. So it did do just the deduction of 199 points.

But now, when I look at a $1.99 book, but have only 249 points, it won't let me do it, and looks like your screenshot. Even though 249 points would be enough for a $1.99 book.

Once I build up to 300 or more again, I'll see if the option to do a "partial" against a specific book shows up again, and post here. If that's the case, I still think I like the "partial redemption" thing. We shall see...
