A Farewell to Bing cashback

One of the principles we have here at Bing is to constantly experiment and learn. We do this to ensure we are keeping pace with new social and technology trends, and can continue to deliver great value for our customers and advertisers. As part of this “test-and-learn” mentality, we will be retiring the Bing cashback feature, which means that the last day you can earn cashback will be July 30, 2010. Why are we doing this? When we...

Spend less, love more­­­­­

I have a confession to make: I’m a Valentine’s Day scrooge. Despite that, Valentine’s Day still sneaks up on me every year and while I might consider saying “Bah humbug” to Cupid, I just can’t.

Whether you’re a scrooge like me or...

Online holiday shopping for the Cyber Monday bargain hunter by Mary Hunt

  I guess you might say I know a thing or two about bargain shopping. I’m good at it. So good, I bargain-shopped myself into a horrible mess—with a life-ruining load of credit-card debt to prove it!

And then I have to parent myself to make sure I stay within that set amount no matter...

Mark your calendars…A Gold Rush is coming

I have never been one to wake up the morning after Thanksgiving to go and wait in a line at the mall for those crazy holiday shopping deals.

Well things have certainly changed. Now I can take advantage of some great holiday savings right from the comfort of my...
