Yes, I realize that getting Hilton points through Automall is like playing roulette but I still have a question that someone may be able to answer.

In the Rewards section under Search Engines one listing is "Ebates 8 points per dollar spent, 80 points per purchase".

Are these automall points in addition to the Ebates rebate? Also what does the 80 points per purchase mean; is it a maximum reward? or in addition to the purchase? or what?

8 automall points per dollar isn't shabby. I realize that conversion has to occur in 500 point increments but still it's a 1:2 ratio when convertion to Hilton points. I figure a Hilton point is worth about 7/10 of a cent (I know...everyone has their own formula and I don't mean to start an argument about THAT!). But using my valuation 8 automall points = 16 Hilton points = 11.2 cents per dollar. If that's in addition to the ebates rebate then it's really good.

In other words if a company is listed as a 4% rebate and you purchase a $65 item from them will you get a rebate of $2.60 plus 520 automall points (and you should be able to convert 500 automall points into 1000 Hilton points)?

Anyone tried this?
