I Amsterdam Card

Considered buying the I Amsterdam card.  This is a tourist discount card that gives you free or discounted entry to various museums etc that tourists might visit.  Does NOT include transport other than local transport.
The three day card can have regional transport added for EU10
Three days have to be consecutive.

Decided it was not good value for us and therefore did not buy.  Our logic was

DAY 1 (THURSDAY)
Actual
Train Amsterdam to Zaanse Schans (Return)  €10
Museum Card We thought was required for entry.  €15
Total € 25   Compare to Card €55 - Not worth it.   

 Train was a bit less than €10
€15 museum card not required.
$5 entry to windmill
€0 entry.
€2 weavers house
Total €17  Confirmed not worth it
DAY 2 (FRIDAY)..
€17  Van Gogh
€16  River cruise
€2.5  Reich Museum
€7.50 Local Transport
Total expected expenditure €33.00
Add the total for day 1 €25 gives two day total €58
Compare to two day card of €67
Getting closer to par but still not worth it.
.€17 Van Gogh
Did not do the river cruise
€17ish Reich museum
€4 local transoort
Total €38
Confirmed really not worth it.
