    Overstock.com is now offering 30% Bing Cashback on everything.

    I've already ordered three lenses at $1,000 each.

    Anyway, Asus laptops are on the list (but going fast) and I need to make a quick decision - thin and light, LED, DVD Player, 8 hours + battery life.
    ASUS UL30A-A3B Notebook
    ASUS UL80VT-A1 Notebook

    Are two choices (haven't confirmed the optical drive, DVD, in the UL80

    Any better deals/choices at Overstock?

    Need to act fast, all the good ones are disappearing.

    Darn it, in the course of all the page turning I lost my ability to edit my first post.

    (This all assumes that you're signed up for Bing and logged in. If you're not, it only takes a second.)

    Go to Bing
    search for Overstock
    There will be banner at the top of the page that offers 15% cash back - ignore it. Look for the larger message that says you will be earning 30% for this session. Take a picture of that message, just in case.

    Click on Overstock.com and start shopping. You may notice the Overstock 30% off banner in some places but it didn't show up when I checked out.

    However, five minutes after each order, I received confirmation that a 30% cashback credit was in my account.
