That is not how it is stated on the site: As the example from how my site was:
Resource budget weekly subtotal $3.99 ($0.57perday) Maximum unused discounted instance hours subtotal $3.00 (60 hours/week [8.5/day]) Minimum spend subtotal* $0.00 *Maximum total charge* *$6.99 *However my site would shutdown at a total cost of around $3.20 each week. Because at just over 7 hours x .08hr I hit the daily limit and the site shuts down (11 oclock at night most nights). In reallity I get billed at 7 * .05 = $0.35 (all discounted instance hours) and even the other way .35 is well below my daily spend max. Per What I am seeing (not documented this way) to utilize your discounted hours at all you must have your weekly subtotal at least (60%) higher then the expected. This opens you up for a bill 60% higher if a rouge DB transaction goes on or an attack on you site not properly identified by google. This billing issue should be resolved.
