Go to bing.com and use 'newegg' as your search term. The first sponsored link should be for 10% off.

Does the cashback count on the total paid to newegg, or the subtotal?

make sure you check prices on other sites first!
a couple sites jacked theere prices up for this cash back and in the end you pay MORE then normal with the cash back, so don't just think %10 awesome, check prices on other sites, also go directly to sites url like www.newegg.com and browse the item that way as well, clearing any cookies if you went in via a bing URL.

Yup. The 'easiest' way to make sure prices aren't jacked up just because you came from Bing is to have two different browsers (IE, Firefox, Chrome etc) not just two browser windows of the same browser. Clear cookies in one and use that to check the site directly, use the other to go through Bing. It's very rare for the post-Bing CB price to actually be *higher* but some sites have been known to jack up prices when there's a bigger Bing cashback %. Supposedly MS looks in to it and tries to keep vendors in line.
