Free Money from EBAY

As the old saying goes “Accumulating wealth is about patience and discipline, saving one penny at a time”….

EBAY is offering another quick opportunity of giving away free cash with the recent promotion of 10% your purchase up to $100. With these EBAY opportunities, I always take advantage to increase my net worth by purchasing gift cards for retailers that I frequently shop at. In this last purchase, I focused on Barnes & Noble because I can use these gift cards towards my future textbooks.

I have also published posts about becoming an EBAY affiliate, which I utilize Finance Puzzle to highlight the latest gift card deals on EBAY.

Summary of my last purchase:

EBAY purchase price for $100 Barnes & Noble gift card: $86.50

10% off promotion: $8.65

Net Purchase: $77.85

Resulting in a sale of 22.15% off on a gift card that I will be depositing into my savings account.

    I’ve been meaning to ask you for more information about the eBay 10% offer. It seems that promotional codes were sent to some (but not all) eBay members. When I logged into eBay, I noticed that I turned off “General email promotions” in my account preferences. That means that I don’t get promotional codes from them. Knowing this, is there a way that somebody who doesn’t already have a promotional code can still get the discount?

    Also, were you going give us an update on how well you are doing with the eBay affiliate program?

    PF Stock – Here is the coupon code for this last EBAY promotion: CJULYFUN0810P

    Regarding my success as an EBAY affiliate, I haven’t earned one nickel yet. A few clicks but no $$$’s earned…Not sure if I am not advertising it enought or what?

    I just posted a question about what makes you buy things off of ebay. Most people said that shipping was a concern and that ebay and paypal fees are a issue. I just got signed up for this website and for everything I buy on ebay and tons of other stores I get the sellers fee they paid to list the item something like 60 percent. I am a ebay drop off store business so everything I buy from ebay i get cashback.
