50% off at Eastbay through Bing.com (Read 1255 times)

Just discovered cashback through Bing today and saw that with the back-to-school promotion it is a 50% discount at Eastbay.com.  Ordered me up some new Kayanos for $77 delivered (after the 60 day cashback period, that is). 

 

what's a cashback through Bing?

This is a service run by Microsoft.  It works kind of like a rebate.  You have to click a link in their cashback store to get to Eastbay.  Once you get there, anything you buy will result in a 50% credit to your cashback account.  After two months (to make sure you don't return the shoes) you ask MS to send you a check. 

 

So basically you pay full price now and get the 50% back after two months.

When you first go to Eastbay from the Bing link, you should see a window that says you will earn 50% cashback on your purchase.  You dismiss the window and do your shopping.  When you check out, the only indication that you're doing the cashback deal is a small section on the page where you enter your credit card number.  On that page, under "Promotional Codes," it should say, "Per Live Search's Cashback offer terms, other discounts or coupons may not be applied to this order."  Go ahead and place your order, and the cashback should show up in your Bing account within a day or so.
