While searching for the best price on a BOB Revolution, I came across Windows Live Search Cash Back. You join (for free) and then go through their site (like ebates, fatwallet, etc) and get cash back. The catch is that you have to wait 60 days for your rebate, and you have to join first. www.search.live.com/cashback

After you join, go to www.seach.live.com/cashback, type in Britax Marathon, and you can find the All Star Blue for $239.95 with $43.19 cash back, for a total of $197. There are other cover styles from other retailers for different prices, too.

Same thing for the Frontier- click on the green box that says Go To Store under the one listed for $224, it takes you to Comfort1st, then use coupon code COUPONCRAZE for a total of $209.99 (after $56 cash back), free shipping. They have all colors instock except for Sahara.

Madison, Huntington and Sahara Regent for $204.94, too.

HTH someone :)

Its not working for me! When I put the seach.live.com/cashback it always goes to home.live (my msn main page for mail, etc...). What am I doing wrong?? If I go straight to Comfort 1st & enter the coupon its only $265 :(

Try googling Live Search Cash Back. It should take you directly to the Cash Back front page, that's how I found it.

It looks like you can also get a Cowmooflage replacement cover for $58.80 - as long as you sift through all the "custom" covers listed. Babyearth.com is the store selling the Britax replacement covers.

AWESOME!! :thumbsup: THANKS! These deals are so much better than ebates and fatwallet!

I just found that I can get the Baby Jogger City Mini's through it too! In orange I could get the single for $181 or the double for $341 (both includes shipping)!!! Now to finally make a decision on which size to get!! :whistle:

Yeah, those links don't work. Just type in the site "http://search.live.com/cashback" or do a search like she says here:

Thanks so much for the info. I used a different vendor through the site, but purchased a Regent with no tax and free shipping for $249 with $45 cash back. The cash back is already posted in my live account. Thanks again!!

Yeah, I searched around for the best price for what I wanted.

So you already see your cash back? I ordered this evening, so I'm hoping I'll see it pending tomorrow! Since it's the first time I've used it, I'm a little anxious to see that it worked!

sunnydayz
08-14-2008, 12:42 PM
I am always a skeptic too, but Live Search is a Micorsoft company. The cash back is posted as soon as the vendor reports the purchase to Live, which can take a few days (mine was about 6 hours). The reason for the 60 day delay in cash back is to prevent buying and returning for cash back I believe.

I was skeptical, too, but Moosejaw.com has been a Live Cash Back participant since 2006 and I've heard lots of good things about them.

So does the cashback go back into your bank account? :confused:

Just checked, you choose how you want to be paid: paypal, bank account or a check. But it's also not available for 6 mths. So it's not an immediate savings. But with the huge percentage rebates, I'm okay with that!

ZephyrBlue
08-19-2008, 09:14 AM
It's available after 60 days, I believe :)

I just purchased some Dr. Martens from online shoes.com and saved 20% at checkout and then 20% cash back in 60 days. The money is already pending in my account. Thanks for posting the info for this site. It ROCKS!!!

One note about MS Live Cash Back...

It can be combined with online discount codes and savings. In fact, the Cash Back is calculated BEFORE the coupon code savings are added in. So it really behooves you to do a thorough Google search on coupon codes for the merchant you are looking at. In fact, sometimes the coupon codes you find will make a merchant which was more expensive less expensive. Yes, this takes a little time, but saving $20-100+ on average makes it worth my time to do so.

In fact there is a 5% off coupon code for Comfort First out there that I have recently posted in a couple of threads that would have reduced the price you paid even more on seats you purchased from them... ;)
:twocents:

Wineaux, I posted the COUPONCRAZE code in my first post for buying a Frontier through Comfort1st. That's how I got one for $209.00 :thumbsup:

When ordering my BOB Revolution (that I got for $251.50!) I used a coupon, Mr.Rebates, AND the Cash Back. They all stacked up and I had no problem using them together. LOVE multiple discounts!!!

mom23boys
08-20-2008, 03:04 PM
I googled onlineshoes to get the coupon code for 20% off and then pasted the code and went to cashback live. Clicked on onlineshoes that way so I could save both ways. The shoes were 79.00 so I got them for 63.96 then minus the 12.80 cashback I got the for 51.16 total.

I actually had found them somewhere else for 49.99 but they wanted 10.95 to ship and had no coupon code and no cashback for a total of 60.94. It was cheaper to purchase for the higher starting price.

I sold our bob revolution about 4 months ago on ebay and I have been kicking myself ever since. Our large almost 5 year old was always walking with his 2 big brothers instead of riding so I decided to sell it. It was in perfect condition. THere are times like Monday at the mall, since the other 2 were at school that ds3 would certainly have been able to use it.

THat was my all time favorite stroller and I was so sad that I didn't have it for the older 2 boys. I hope you enjoy your new BOB! I loved it as a running, jogging, walking, shopping and everday stroller. I could literally push our 50 lb kiddo with 1 finger.:love:

How did you use Mr.Rebates and Cash Back at the same time? I would love to do that!
My understanding is that it's a kind of convoluted process that works like this:

Open a window via MrRebates, or FatWallet/eBates/etc., and add the item you wish to buy to your cart. Now go through the MS Live Cash Back link and open a second window to the store. Your item should still be in the cart from the first window that is STILL open on your PC. Now check out via the MS Live Cash Back window, and close the first window after the transaction is complete. That scenario should report the sale to both rebate companies. Now, this is a YMMV situation, as FatWallet has denied some cash back deals on their side that were done this way. MrRebates, whom I have never used or heard about till now, may indeed pay. Or at least will pay out until they figure out that people are double dipping on the rebates. ;)

If I got the steps wrong on this, please let me know, as I may attempt this myself on a couple of deals in the near future, and would love to at least try and get in on the double dip rebate action... :cool:

i did exactly what wineaux described and got both mr. rebates and live cash back on the frontier purchase from comfort1st- plus used a coupon and it all went through fine on the first try.

Darn! I just ordered a stroller from Comfort1st and wish I had checked this thread this morning first! I could have probably gotten more off. I just had the 5% off code and then the cash back.

On that note, have any of you gotten your cash back? I know it takes 60 days, I was just curious if it ever gets through earlier than that.

I will definitely been needing a frontier in the next month or 2 - anyone waiting until the britax sale to see if they can combine this with the sale price??? Think there will be a better frontier deal than this?

I just received my Regent that was ordered through CSN Baby via the Live site. It was shipped the day I ordered and arrived (across country) in less than a week. The DOM is July 18, 2008. Also, customer service was really responsive when I had a question.

On a side note my 4 year old is thrilled with his new Regent. He recently outgrew his Blvd. and we initially purchased a Nautilus. He always compained of being squished and declared the Regent "much better".

I just ordered at Comfort1st for a Frontier. The cashback is 25% right now. The price of the seat was $265.99 with the coupon code - $70 for live cash = $195.99!!!! That is amazing. DH would only let me order one because we know it will fit in my minivan but we don't know about his Camry. Can't wait to get it and fit it in his car and then buy another.

I know... I'm debating if I should wait until the Sale dates to see what happens or snag it now :) I found an Ashley MA for $193... but DD prefers the pink Brooke.

Anyone seen a better deal than that?? And how do I get in on the coupon action?? Every time I try it's just the general free shipping, etc... not another 10...15... 20% off.

I'm curious to see if this really works, though it seems better since the money is in some of your accounts already :)

Okay... so I was skimming through the legal stuff, and the payment section caught my eye. Are you signing up for a Window's Live account that you have to pay for?? Or can you just use the Live Search feature. Maybe I'm being skeptical here, but I just feel like there's got to be a catch... and like I'm about to get a huge bill for something.


Oh... and on the ones where there's a range, 15%-30%... how do you know what you're actually going to get? 15% is okay... 37% off a Britax would be great :)

09-01-2008, 02:51 PM

I found that on HappyMother's.com... though I haven't read very many good reviews about them... and I have yet to actually get someone to answer the phone.

I'm a little hesitant and they're not on Britax's authorized dealer list either...

I think I'm still gonna wait and see how low the ones on BabyCenter go... they have the Ashley & the Brooke too, and I know they're easy to deal with :) Baby Center is on LiveSearch & Mr. Rebates too... plus free shipping, so it's a good deal... especially if they go on sale more in a couple of weeks :)

Two weeks ago, I purchased a Frontier through the Live Search cashback site. I thought I did everything correctly, signed up for the Windows Live first, then Cashback, then followed the link to Comfort1st and even saw the pop up saying my purchase would be eligible for Cashback.

It was 20% plus the 5% coupon I used, and free shipping, a good deal all around. I opted for the money to go to my Paypal account, and waited.

After one week, I contacted Cashback who said they would research further (even though I sent them my order confirmation with ALL the requested information up front). After two weeks (today), I emailed Comfort1st to see if they could help. We'll see.

I am not used to dealing with companies that I cannot reach by phone. What if this never clears? I have never dealt with rebates before, and maybe in my case I need to wait 60 days, but why do some people get their rebates sooner than others?

I have the same problem. I emailed cashback with my order info and said they were working on it. Haven't heard back since. I thought maybe mine would take longer because the item was on backorder. But once I received it, I still didn't see the cashback on their site. Guess I should email back and see what's going on!

Update, emailed them yesterday asking for the current status and this morning got the email showing my rebates been recorded. :thumbsup: Logged on and I have 39 days till I can get it!

And weird, I got 22% cashback, but when I just did a search for the same product through the same store, it's now showing only 11% cashback!! Just checked another item I had been looking at, and the cashback is about half as it was before!! :(

Every month the cash back percentages can change. That's up to the individual store. You can search for stores based upon cash back percentage, and then look at the stores with the higher cash back amounts.

Ah ha! Thanks for that clarification! Maybe I should go back and read the fine print!!

I guess I'll have to jump on the item I want then when the cash back is at a higher rate!!
