Stolen from FW (credit to Moonseed)

The competition between Google and PayPal just gets better and better.

I don't see and ad for it on the Buy.com site, but it works!! Add $50 to your shopping cart and the new GCO discount is $20!!

Also, should work at Timberland and SierraTradingPost, but I have not personally checked - yet.

Edit: available at Starbucks.com too

Sweet!

Can this be used more than once (separate $50 purchases)?

And what are the start and end dates of the offer?

Yes, it can be used more than once. I just did back-to-back orders with it and it saved me some good change on a Christmas gift I was waiting to buy. Don't know about the dates though.

 

[mshan]

Ritz Camera's website says it ends 12/19/06.

Don't know about start date, but I'm guessing it's active now.

Aaah.. so this is what I'm going to do with all my money... :-S

 

[whitelight]

wooohoo, i love the google vs paypal fight

 

[voodoojc]

Any good fillers at buy.com?

 

[mshan]

Does Newegg.com accept Paypal?

(asking because of the Paypal promo that goes active on Thanksgiving Day: http://paypal.promotionexpert.com/holiday/ )

Buy.com rapes you with shipping fees.

try for a DVD or CD.. shipping is about 1.90

 

[cheapherk]

What I don't need is more temptation

 

[Ricochet]

Well maybe now it's not a bad idea for me to buy Final Fantasy XII ($47.49). Anybody know of a good filler?

Edit: D'oh!! music download doesn't count.

Closest thing I could find is this ethernet cable but shipping absolutely kills any deal. Shipping is over $6 just for that cable, and AFAIK isn't discounted when you buy multiple items.

Shipping is a deal killer. May have to wait for the paypal/newegg deal to kick in.

 

[GZeus]

Yeah, the shipping charges suck! :thumbsdown:

I think DVD series, may be the best deals to be had. I went a little :roll: overboard and got all 4 seasons of Family Guy, all 3 seasons of Arrested Development, and 2 seasons of South Park that I didn't have yet.
Add to those, a couple of 12 DVD sets of 50 classic movies (Martial Arts & Horror) for the GF plus a couple of filler titles and I dropped a chunk of change.

I felt a little guilty until I added all the same stuff to a cart at Amazon and watched it total over $100 more :shocked:.

ps - Notice how I stay out of trouble by buying some stuff for the GF

According to BensBargains:

Update: Live! Rumor has it that Google will again up the ante by offering $20 off $50 purchases at participating retailers, beginning tonight or tomorrow. This is presumably to pre-empt PayPal's equivalent offer.

Could happen tomorrow, right when the Paypal deal kicks in.

Err, uhm... did you read the thread? It's on now.


Edit: Ricochet - There is a 'filler link' on page 4 or 5 of the FW post.

sweet. better than the $10 off $30. thanks

Here's some good deals using Google checkout:


*If each item is $50 or more, put them in separate orders, and purchase via google checkout, which will take $20 off EACH order.* Example - If you wanted to buy the microsd and mouse listed below, do not put them in the same order. Order one, check out with google, and then do it again with the other one!


US Modular 1GB microSD Secure Digital Card - USMICROSD-1GB for $20 AR
1GB Microsd
$50 - $10 rebate - $20 Google = $20 AR!

Logitech G5 Laser Mouse PC Gaming w/ Adjustable Weights for $34
Logitech G5 Mouse
$54.21 - $20 Google = $34.31!

I know there are other great deals / combos...so post them!
