Anyone using this? I've never been big on using google's stuff like Gmail or anything, but I've thought about getting an account because a ton of stores right now are offering 20+ dollars off some orders over $50 (Like Gears of War for @ $40 after shipping). It also sounds like next year sometime they'll stop adding fees.

What do you kids think?

I've been using it like mad at Buy.com for all of my Christmas shopping and a little for myself.

I thought about making a thread in Unmod or something but got lazy and shrugged it off.

So you just make several orders and get $20 on each of them as long as they're over $50? If thats the case, I might have to partake in this. Might as well get a gmail account while I'm at it *sigh*. Google is too smart.

Yeah, it's no joke. I bought a lot of stuff because the deal was just too good to pass up. I hate Buy.com, but this in combination with the fact that most of the stuff has free shipping on it and that there are no taxes outside of California made it a sure thing for me.

Neon Genesis Evangelion Platinum DVD set for like 32 bucks and change. I ended up picking up Seasons 1 2 and 3 of the Rocky and Bullwinkle show for like 40 dollars.

If you have an account at Cheap Ass Gamer, here (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=116440) is a link to a very big thread about different things people have used the deal on. They have a creative knack for using "fillers" to add a dollar or two to the shopping cart, as well as interesting combinations of things you wouldn't buy at normal price.
