Promotion Period: The Promotion will begin at 12:01 am PST on November 15, 2000 and will end at 11:59 pm PST on December 19, 2000. However, Microsoft reserves the right to terminate the Promotion at any time during the Promotion period.

I'm pretty sure that after the thousands and I mean THOUSANDS of orders that were placed with 800.com and Mercata that there's a good chance this will expire sooner than 12/19.

Today's words of wisdom: You snooze, you lose.

what it ends that fast?? wow!~

I swear, Mercata did not expect this many people to rape them.

I think everyone makes out in this deal, except maybe Microsoft.

Mercata probably gets reimbursed 100+ % back for the promotion of Passport.

can someone please tell me what this 20% off deal is? I mean, I see them everwhere, people talking of saving like 40% but I don't know what's going on, someone please help me!!!

People are saving more because they are combining the deal with other incentives. Simply put, you need to go through the MSN Passport portal, select one of the listed stores and go shopping. During your check-out, you have to select a special button added by Microsoft to recalculate your order for the new lower price prior to finalizing the check-out.

There are other incentives from some of the stores listed @ Passport. Mercata was giving away $100 in credit which you could use to apply towards 20% off of your purchase. Unfortunately, you had to sign up by the end of yesterday (11/17) in order to get in on this deal. However, if you are looking for electronics, 800.Com has some great deals. 10% off of DVD players and large screen TVs. Plus 800.Com has some coupons (ex. $30 off a $150 purchase) which you can find if you look though the other postings in this forum. Combining these 'additional' incentives with the Passport deal is how people are achieving 30% or 40% (or more) off of their purchases.
