50NL on non-Stars sites

So I've been building up a roll playing 50NL on PartyPoker for the last six weeks. But since I've already completed the $500 deposit bonus I'm thinking I will just play there for the rest of the month until I can sell enough points for the $500 cash reward and then I'm thinking about moving to another site.

However, I'm looking at http://rakeatpoker.com/rake.php and seeing that the average rake in bb/100 that the average player pays on other sites that are not stars or FTP is much worse. For example, if were to switch to 888 I would get $400 in bonus money but i would also be paying an additional 3.5bb/100 in rake compared to what I'm paying now on Party. I earned my bonus on Party approximately at a rate of $100 per 8k hands played at 50NL 6-max. But playing on 888 would mean that I would pay $140 MORE in rake per 8k hands played which renders the bonus money pretty meaningless.

I guess my question is, given the absurd rake on most sites for 50NL should I just be looking to move back to Stars where I've already used my deposit bonus? Or is the competition on a site like 888 really soft enough such that adding in the $400 bonus it would be worth playing for one month? Or should I just stay on Party?
