Same. Better than not being eligible I suppose.

I have "Get 40% off (up to $40) eligible products¹ when using a minimum of 1,429 Membership Rewards points."
At 40%, this is probably worth it. But for 15%, at the common valuation of MR points being worth ~2 cents each, it's probably not.
Here's why:
  • 1429 points = $29 worth of points
  • But the Amex/Amazon value = $10, because you only get 0.7 cents per point when using MR on Amazon.
  • So you're basically losing ~$19 worth of value by using 1429 points here (1429 * (0.02-0.007) = 18.57)
Given this, I'd argue that anything less than $19 off is basically losing money, so a "20% off up to $20" is pretty much the breakeven point here.

Cat food is always a good thing to use ANY discount on -- that stuff is so darn expensive, especially decent quality food in cans. I wish more cat food was sold in large cans to bring the cost and WASTE down.

I wasn't eligible for the 30% offer but how does the other ones work? Same link shows eligible offers or is there another way to check it?
