In this series, I will first review the cash back website called Ebates. Ebates is one of my favorite cash back sites. It is really easy and free to sign up. Upon signing up you will receive a $5 sign up bonus. You can sign up by clicking the banner on my blog, the picture above, or any link throughout this post.
Basically, you sign into their website, and click on the shopping tab and choose from over 900 stores (Target, Old Navy, Sephora, JCPenney...etc.). They have every major and small retail store that you could think of. Ebates will give you a percentage back, up to 25%, just by purchasing through their website. They also give you online codes (coupons), to help you maximize your savings. I find that it helps immensely to have the online coupon codes right on their site so I don't have to spend a lot of time searching for the best deal possible.
Of course you won't be saving money if you start buying anything and everything. :) However, if you do use the site when there are really good sales/coupon codes, you can really save a lot of money when you get something you need. I have been saving a ton of money and getting great deals on Ebates. I have done a lot of my Christmas shopping through them. Last year around Christmas time when I first joined they were giving double cash back, which made it an even sweeter deal.
They also have a referral system. When you refer friends, family, etc. and they sign up under your referral email/link, you will earn $5 after they make their first purchase through the site and they will earn $5 just for signing up. You can receive payment by check or through PayPal once you earn $5.01+, the $5 sign-up bonus is not eligible for the cash-back over-all amount, so when you reach $10.01 and up you are eligible for your first check. All following checks will not include your sign-up bonus and will therefore be available for payment at $5.01+.
All you have to do is quickly sign up for Ebates and remember when you want to make a purchase online, to go to their website, and click on the store you want to make a purchase from so you can earn back a percentage every time you shop. If you use Ebates when there are really good sales/coupon codes available, you can really save a lot of money. I encourage you to give it a try. What could be better than getting money back on a purchase you already intended to make anyway?
