i feel better about the xsi purchase this morning.

do you guys ever get the panicky feeling after you pull the trigger on a big ticket item, even though you know you got a good deal?

A little man...always remember though if you don't like it/want it you can sell it and at least make even...let alone a profit perhaps. That stops me from panicking.

I just now did a search using Wii as the keyword and got a 25% banner after clicking refresh once. Did that around 1PM this afternoon and was able to use it twice also.

So, it is hit or miss.

"Nintendo Wii" just worked for 25% for me as well. Thank goodness. I have been on pins and needles. Finally pulled the trigger on a Canon EOS 5D for $1175 after $200 CashBack. This Live Search Cashback promotion has been killer on my wallet, but awesome for scratching my photo equipment itch.

You would have gotten $200 cashback even with 15%. Higher percentage works better for smaller ticket items.

I know, I just meant that I was on pins and needles in the past 24 hours or so when the Cashback link wasn't working at all

Yes. One does not exclude the other.

Of course the key is being able to use the coupon. Anyone who has been buying is probably not on the coupon list since I am sure it is an attempt to lure you back. It did show the discount without reducing the cash back amount, but it removed the coupon before final checkout.

Still a good deal!

I wonder how much money MS is spending on this program?

If anybody finds a keyword that works, post it


Damn, I was about to pre-order Left 4 dead and save around $17 off the $50 retail price.

The original "cheap ps2" still works for me but the rebates is down to 10% so meh!

those aren't for ebay.

You are correct. That will teach me to try and think at 11:30 PM.

I have been EBay buying, and today I received a "coupon". It's possible I deleted an earlier notice of the coupon -- before I knew of it -- as I tend to delete EBay email w/o reading and this email reads like a "reminder". Anyway,receiving the coupon and the having been using the Live Cash Back & EBay are definitely compatible.


The first item I used the LCB on was a Hanns-G 28" monitor from TechTreasure. Due to mWave -- which handles TT orders -- having just gone OOS on the monitor, it took 3.5 weeks to arrive, but WOW, what a wonderful buy it was! I'm in Love! $430 [now] -25% + $30 s/h .comes to $352. A steal! I don't quite know where that 10% applies, but if it equates to 35% (not including s/h) that's $310 for this monitor. Its a BIG improvement over my 22" Samsung.

Thank you Mr. Hodgeman but shouldn't be:

The coupon has to be applied at checkout. Bottom right above your total.

Well, it looks like it varies anywhere from 1% and up when it just says "Live Cash." Been poking around with the interface and was able to buy some wheels and tires for my car with 25% cash back. (two transactions of course. )

Nice...worked for me. I've been trying to get a Logitech DiNovo Edge for some time now and after I found this thread I bought one and got $30 cash back. Thanks OP!

I got 25% off my MSI Wind last night. Coupled with a 10% off coupon code, and $340 for a 6-cell MSI Wind is hawt :lips:

Too bad it wasn't 35% off like the SD thread said it was. That would've been another $50
