10% back in eBay Bucks on $50+ items
If you are planning to make purchases of items priced $50 or higher individually (not as a total shopping cart), and you are participating in the eBay Bucks rewards program, check your emails or eBay messages for a new 10% eBay Bucks promotion on $50+ items. You must first activate the offer by clicking on the appropriate spot in the email or eBay message. Without activation, you won’t earn the bonus! The email title is semi-hidden, “Don’t get schooled–earn 10% eBay Bucks now!”, which may not be visible if you are using a phone to quickly skim emails.
A good place to look for ideas are the eBay Deals along with the Trending Deals (shows only 100 trending deals, less overwhelming to look at than their main deals page). There’s also a dedicated search box there that searches only the Deals, not everything else on eBay.
Another way to look for ideas is our eBay Archive posts.
