I don't particularly like using Amazon but the Smile program was the thing to sway me towards using it when convenient. I'm sure convenience alone will win them plenty but for my personal use this is a huge disappointment. I am almost certain the .5% they were giving away from my purchases/would save from this change will be less than the profit from products I will no longer buy from Amazon. I would assume this is the case for many users and agree this is likely a short-sighted change. Scary indication of things to come as money policy keeps making companies more frugal.
