Thank you to BING for sponsoring my writing today. To learn more about BING Shopping Rewards, click here. I was selected for this sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective, which endorses Blog With Integrity, as I do.
If you are anything like me, then shopping is indeed a sport. You can appreciate a good deal or bargain, and you are constantly searching for the latest styles, fashions, and household items online. Online shopping has made it so much easier for us to get the items we want and need—-it doesn’t matter if you live in a metropolis like New York City or a small town, everything is available to you online within a few keystrokes on your computer.
Could you imagine not being able to go on the Internet to shop? Most of the shopping that I do for myself and for my family is primarily done online, and not only is it convenient, but allows me the flexibility to search for what I want without riding all over town. And with the current gas prices, that in itself, is a great reason to get your shopping done online.
Shopping online can be complicated, however—searching for deals sometimes makes you wince because what you may be searching for may not appear in the search results. Which is why I am having a fun time shopping online with Bing Shopping. First off, their one touch Shopping option on their search page makes it easy to navigate. And the custom Bing Shopping landing page makes it fun to search for the items you want. Bing Shopping takes the guess work out of what you want by knowing what it is you may be searching for. Add the ‘Read About’ sections and ‘Find’ collages, and online shopping has never been as much fun as it is now. It’s like having a fashion magazine at your fingertips and everything you want is within reach.
Bing Shopping also breaks everything down into concise categories including clothing and shoes, arts and crafts, housewares, and more. Whatever it is you need, Bing Shopping has your back!
You can also participate in the Bing Rewards Preview Program that will allow you to earn points for searching on Bing.
There are two easy ways to start earning and tracking your credits:
1. Go the Bing Bar route. Just install the Bing Bar toolbar onto your browser and register, and you can watch the Rewards credit counter climb.
2. Head to Bing.com on the Web. Just complete the registration form and track your progress by checking the Rewards credit counter located on the top right of the Bing.com header.
And, upon signing up, you’ll automatically start with 250 credits.Once you’ve accumulated a fair number of credits (to give you an idea, 1338 credits can get you a $10 Starbucks gift card!), head to the Redemption Center and start shopping. Beyond getting your caffeine fix, you can fuel your makeup obsession with a Sephora giftcard, and not feel bad about splurging on that pricey mascara you’ve been wanting. Or, you may choose to buy just about anything you want by choosing an Amazon.com giftcard. You can also cash in your credits for specific products like the Scrabble board game, a DVD player, and more. Learn how to hit the virtual shopping aisles HERE.
Shopping online should be a hassle free and fun experience for everyone, and using Bing Shopping has really made for an enjoyable experience in my book. Check it out for yourself!
I find it cheesy that Bing is rewarding users to use them for search.. if their search results are as good as Google, of course I would use them.. no need to bribe me with cash.
Hmm, Henway I would have to disagree with you on that one. Rewards programs are a great way for businesses to earn repeat customers. Many places such as Best Buy, AMC Movie Theaters, and tons of supermarkets use rewards programs. I see nothing wrong with it as all, as using incentives for businesses is a great way to build customer relationships. Thanks for commenting. 🙂
My spouse and i realize its cheap that Google can be rewarding consumers to use these for look for.. if their own search engine results tend to be as effective as Search engines, needless to say We would rely on them.. do not need incentivise us using dollars.
