Another ebates question

[natablue]

So last night I clicked through ebates and ended up placing an order with Modcloth. How does ebates know I purchased anything, to take advantage of the 2.5% cash back? I also have a $10 target gift card pending, that I got when I signed up for ebates a few weeks ago. I had to make a purchase through ebates before I can get the gift card, but my account says I have no qualifying purchases.

Upon further review, I think I may have ended up opening another window during my shopping session. I quite often right-click on items and open them in a new browser. I may have finalized that purchase in the non-original browser I clicked through on ebates, so that makes sense. Ah well, I guess I'll have to find something else to buy!

Thanks for the suggestion, I will do that!

I actually put a piece of tape on my computer that says - when in cart - go to ebates. haha! I just shop as normal THEN go to ebates when I'm ready to check out and click through. Otherwise I do the same thing you did and loose out.

I do the same things as Kare. I put everything in my cart and then go to ebates before I check out because I always open new windows too.
