Nine Dollars Easy Money

Early last month, I bought Norton AntiVirus 2007 from Buy.com when it was offered with a $40 Visa debit card as mail-in rebate. The listed price was $51, but I paid only $31 with Google Checkout which gave me another $20 discount during the promotion period. So if everything works out, I could not only get the product for free, but actually make 9 bucks from this purchase as well. Guess what? Less then one month since I submitted the rebate, a sparkling Visa debit with $40 balance was in the mail today! That's nine dollars of easy money.

Actually, later on in December I also bought Norton Ghost from Buy.com which offered an additional $20 competitive/upgrade rebate. I used the Norton AntiVirus to get this rebate. If successful, I can get another $14 of free money from that transaction. In total, I got two boxes of software (how good they are is another story) and $23 of free money. Not a bad deal. And if I can sell the software on Amazon.com (Norton AntiVirus 2007 for $37.98 and Norton Ghost for $32.80), I could make a little more. Of course, I can set a much lower price since I got them for free.
