I used it to order 2 Xmas gifts over $50, plus an order for myself that was $30...so my savings come out to be $50.

Just signed up for accepting Google checkout. Don't know yet how many customers will actually have it to pay with it, but can't hurt.
And since I buy adwords, it will most likely be free.

*cough* PayPal sucks *cough*

$20. I've only bought one thing using Google checkout through Buy.com. I've saved money for friends and family doing Christmas shopping though by making sure they knew about the deal.

What kind of savings does it offer? Like free shipping or something like that if you use it?

i saved quite a bit, especially at buy.com....also at fogdog....make sure you do separate transactions based on the price, that way you get the full effect.

for every order you place, you get $10 of a $30 order or $20 off a $50 order. You can do as many separate transactions as you like.

Did a separate order for each PS3 game (each game was $44 shipped. $59 - $20 plus $5 shipping), so I 'saved' $80 just on those 4 games (actually little more since I didn't pay sales tax which I would have to pay if I bought at a local store).

Same with the Blu Ray Movies...two movies were over $50, so they knocked off $20...

Not really sure when this promotion ends though..
