    Yet another check in the box of reasons not to renew plus. I’m still on extra until July, been a plus member since ps3, and would always buy a year during black friday sales. With the massive price increase and now this, I’m actually logging what games I play off plus to see if the cost is still worthwhile.

    As far as the earlier expiration, I always just redeem for the $5 store credit. No point in saving up more, you don’t get better deals for saving and redeeming for the $20 credit.

    A “good deal” in the program is to get 150 coins from a pre order, let’s say of the new Astro game. I’m definitely going to buy that game. But then if you pause and think that 1200 coins can be redeemed for $5, you’re getting 62 cents extra cash back from the deal on a $60 game. Not even a discount… PS bucks back. and that’s only if you get the rest of the coin$ to ca$h in.
