Win $500 with the Bing Cashback Twitter Contest
« Previous Post | Next Post »Microsoft is having a new contest on Twitter and all you have to do is to tweet on twitter to be eligible to enter. Everyday, a winner will be selected to take home a $500 Visa cash card and a Bing backpack.
Here’s how the contest works:
- Starting July 23 on Twitter, @bingcashback will be hosting a 7-day Bing cashback Twitter Sweepstakes.
- The contest runs each weekday until July 31. Each weekday, we will tweet a new Bing cashback- trivia question. Whoever @replies with the right answer within one hour becomes eligible to win.
- The answers to each of our trivia questions will be discoverable by using Bing, specifically Bing Shopping and Bing cashback.
- Answer the Bing #cashbackpack trivia question by replying to @bingcashback within 1hr & include the tag #cashbackpack
- This contest is open only to legal residents of the 50 US and DC 18+
- 7 separate hour-long Prize Periods – 1 Prize Period per weekday (Monday – Friday).
This is a very good marketing strategy because the trivia questions are Bing Shopping and Cashback-related, hence forcing the participants to use Bing to find the answer. Participants are also required to use the #cashbackpack hashtag in their public tweet to build publicity for the contest and the Cashback program.

From your last post, I guess you don’t understand sarcasm.
I wish to show thanks to you just for bailing me out of such a circumstance. Because of browsing through the the net and coming across advice which are not pleasant, I assumed my entire life was done. Being alive without the presence of solutions to the problems you have solved by means of your article is a critical case, as well as the ones which might have negatively affected my entire career if I had not encountered the blog. Your main competence and kindness in dealing with every part was valuable. I am not sure what I would have done if I had not encountered such a subject like this. It’s possible to at this point look ahead to my future. Thanks so much for your reliable and amazing help. I won’t be reluctant to suggest the sites to any person who needs and wants tips on this topic.
