If you’re a Bank of America customer, you may have heard of the new Add It Up program, which gives customers cash-back credits for purchases from select online retailers. For existing BofA customers, this program is a no-brainer, since current Add It Up partners include standards like Target, Gap, Ann Taylor Loft, and more. I just took advantage of a big offer and got some cool new shoes. Through 9.30.09, Onlineshoes.com is giving 13% back– even on sale merchandise!
Now, I love boots, and I’m not talking tame, “Hey, you’re cool enough to make my Christmas card list” kind of love. I’m talking hot-and-heavy “til death do us part” kind of love. And guess what else I’m crazy about? Discounts! So imagine how excited I was to find these Aerosoles Tint Cess boots at a big 61% off!
With the round toe, buckle, and hint of slouchiness, they hit the sweet spot of Fall’s engineer boots trend. They should look great with jeans and leggings, and since they’re $179.95 marked down to $69.99, I didn’t even try to resist. Plus, now through 9.14.09, Onlineshoes.com is offering an additional 10% off on sale merchandise, so I used promotional code 9FALLSALE to bring the price down to $62.99.
And because I purchased with my Add It Up registered Bank of America card, I’ll get a cash-back credit of $8.19, which makes the true cost $54.80 (with no tax, no shipping charge, and free returns)!
Such a good deal got me very excited, but I somehow managed to control myself. If I’d wanted to go wild, though, it would have looked something like this:
Born Frappe— $219.95 marked to $142.99 (and then $128.69 with the 10% promo code)
I know, not particularly practical for someone who lives in L.A., but trust me, if I were practical, I wouldn’t be living in L.A.
BCBGirls Cidro
— $109.95 marked to $92.99 ($83.69 with the 10% promo code)
A sexy and timeless little bootie that winks at the platform and peek-a-boo trends.
Vince Camuto Calto— $149.95 marked to $69.99 ($62.99 with the 10% promo code)
Hitting two trends at once: ankle boot + 80s.
These are great deals even without the 13% Add It Up credit, but with that extra incentive, it’s practically irresistible.
To get the Add It Up credit, just follow a few simple rules:
- Visit BankofAmerica.com and register your BofA debit or credit card in the Add It Up program. (It’s an easy registration and should take no longer than five minutes.)
- Check out the Add It Up retail partners. Be sure to access the retail partner’s site via the link on Bank of America’s website. (NOTE: To receive the And It Up credit, you must access the retailer’s website through Bank of America’s site. You won’t get cash back for purchases made without first visiting the BofA site, even if you check out with your BofA credit or debit card.)
- Purchase with your Add It Up registered card, and you’ll receive a cash-back refund in the Bank of America account associated with that card. Credits are deposited on a monthly basis.
