Wii Fit for $55.01 from Live.com search


Okay, I've posted my prediction for the Wii Fit to be this holiday season's big seller on eBay. But you're having trouble finding the Wii Fit to resell. I'll have at least two posts on how to find the Wii Fit.

My first post on how to find the Wii Fit is not a tried and true method for securing a Wii Fit. This method I've only read about live.com and MS live search's cash back offers. I just ordered my Wii Fit today from live.com and I will post follow ups on the success or failure of this method.

So, if you're okay with the chance this will work and the possibility something might go wrong, read on. If you need a more reliable seller and do not like to take chances with this type of thing, please do not read on.

If you're still with me, great!! This is what I did for a Wii Fit for $55

First, goto live.com or http://search.live.com/cashback/products and search on "Wii Fit" and look for the "Live Search cashback" icons.

After you click on the icon, Live Search cashback search for "Wii Fit" and click the compare prices button.

Here you'll find the latest costs and retailers. Below is the list that came back for me.

StoresFree Shipping |Store Price|cashback| Bottomline Price
HotMovieSale.com Yes$91.6940.0%$55.01
Sears Yes$89.994.0%$86.39
Sears Yes$89.994.0%$86.39
Kmart.com No$89.994.0%$86.39
Comp-U-Plus No$168.9912.0%$148.71
Electronica Direct No$179.9916.0%$151.19


I went with the HotMovieSale for $55. My guess is this retailer will take a little longer to arrive and you need to call them to cancel the account that is opened after purchase. But, I figure I have plenty of time before the holiday season and no worries with talking to them on the phone.

*For this deal you have to call to cancel the SmartSavingsCenter Member Services account that opens with this purchase

Below is some more information about live search from their FAQ. Live.com is Microsoft's attempt to catch back up with Google search and is giving large money back opportunities thru searching with live.com

Check back for my updates and let me know how this one works out for you.
