    If you use Nintendo Wii, it will show up at 15%.

    The other keywords are still showing 8%.

    It applies to the usual items that are covered, i.e. paid via paypal, buy it now, etc, however, you need to use nintendo wii as the trigger keyword for 15% to show up.

    Yeah, I was going to update my main post..but the "edit" option is no longer available it seems :(

    I requested the Thread Title be changed, though.

    And, this is nice...I see a crawl up to 30%??? :p :D

    From what I can tell, the edit function is now disabled after a certain amount of time. Hmmm, 30% would be nice, but by now, many sellers have started jacking up prices unfortunately.

    So, are we preferring BING over GOOGLE yet?

    These cash-back deals only apply to US citizens, correct?

    Well, as long as your paypal account is based in the US, and you're buying from a seller based in the US, I guess it might work.

    Anyway,

    I just received my cashback for a Dell purchase of my mp3 player. So I received 15% Dell coupon + 20% cashback.. total savings of about $90.

    Haha.. love Bing.

    Because the cashback wasn't inputted automatically, I e-mailed Bing Cashback rep and told my situation.

    She input my information for me so that it would appear on Cashback but she said that she can't guarantee my transaction because I used the coupon.

    So I said okay... 60 days later, it was processed.

    It just worked somehow... :)

    when you pay with paypal, does it have to be paid from your checking account or can your credit card be used as well?

    You can use a credit card as well. Just make sure to switch your funding source on the pay screen, as PayPal conveniently defaults to bank Xfer backed up by CC if it fails to go through. I always switch all my funding options during payment to a credit card completely. Don't do a split transaction (part paypal funds, part CC). If need be, make sure to withdrawl any PP funds you have to your checking account THEN use your CC to purchase the entire amount.

    dumb question, but i didn't see it specifying it only applies to brand new items... so if a seller has a BIN option for a used or refurbished item, am I still okay?

    no i meant 800 for the pair of them.. they were 400$ a piece but 20$ of 800 total would have brought me another 40$ i only saved 40$ with the 10% so i could have had 80$ total... sorry i mi worded that i guess.

    Going down to 8% or 15%. 20% looks dead for now.

    When the cashback gets to those wicked high levels, you have to act fast.

    I picked up a 320GB WD Scorpio Black and a Sager 570 Barebones for my daughter. Ended up saving $85.00, which was nice.
