I bought 2 $100 Gift cards using two different cards, each has a different billing address (one at home and the other at work). I went thru BigCrumbs to get a whopping 9.6% cashback on each purchase. I am able to receive 2 $10 eGift cards. Then I used the $200 total GC to pay for a $272.66 (CA tax is 9.5%) Nook Color also going thru BigCrumbs' 9.6% cashback. So far my cashback from the GC purchased has appeared in my BigCrumbs account but not yet for my Nook Color purchase.

This is the only way for one to get a great deal on the Nook Color (unless you buy it on eBay for $240 or so with no tax and free shipping) because currently there are no coupons or rebates available. If all planets are in alignment...my total purchase should amount to $207.29 though I don't get my cashback from BigCrumbs until Feb. 15th.

A few months from now when the Triton, Mirasol, or Liquavista version of the Nook Color comes out, the LCD version should come down in price by $50.
