Are you shopping?? What are you looking for? Ebates has double cash back everywhere. Here’s a referral link if you need it...

So far I got Kiwi Crate for DD2 (60% off the first month plus 7.5% cash back), LEGO Hogwarts Hall for DD1 (no discount but 10% cash back), clothes at Vineyard Vines for DH, my dad, and BIL (25% off the whole order plus 8% back, and an Amex deal for $30 credit if you spend $150), and a new suitcase from Away Travel for DH (20% off). He travels so much, and was just complaining about the lack of outlets at one airport where he spends a ton of time. The suitcase has a rechargeable battery pack. I hope he likes it!

I almost bought that suitcase do H last year mae0111, but ended up with one with no outlets after all. I hope he likes it!

I did some online shopping last night. I got my brother a Fitbit, the girls 4 pairs of PJs and myself and immersion blender. Thanks, Target app.

librarychica - is it a good suitcase? I hope so... it wasn’t cheap. He is on the road so much that I just wanted to get him a good one.

Sent DH out this to Coastal for dog food as each bag you bought you got $20 gift card to be used starting tomorrow. DH also bought himself a new saw at Jerry's our local home improvement store. Other than I order DD boots from Kohls last night.

I have been to Target, Best Buy and Walmart to look for a deal on a TV. Not really any good ones, but I didn't go until 10 AM. Will try again cyber Monday. Dh claims he got a deal on mine while sitting on the couch. It better be my Roomba, or whatever brand he deemed best.

I’m shopping for work gifts. Harry and David has 14% cash back on ebates. Totally worth entering orders in manually vs doing a business order.

All of the 43 inch TVs that Dh has requested have been around $250. I ordered one from Walmart online for $199.

He needs a 43 inch in our bedroom so he can replace the box TV in the workout room with the current 32 inch bedroom
Flat screen because he can't read the scroll on Sportscenter on a square box TV on the treadmill. FWP.

That box TV is the best TV ever and should not be replaced IMO, since he had it before we got married 20 years ago and we have replaced what seems like 1000 flat screens over the years.

I was watching for the deal on the Nintendo Switch that came with the Mario Kart game. Sold out at every Target and Best Buy within a hundred miles, according to their websites. But Amazon had it for the same price so I ordered that today. I made Amazon lists of everything else I’m getting the kids. Now I’m just trawling for better prices.

I need to order the business card holders for my employees. I think they will like them.

It’s held up so far and he puts some miles on it.

Ebates did not confirm my purchase. We’re talking like a $400+ cash back amount, so I’m annoyed.

I’ve had this happen before. It’s a pain but you can send them an email with copies of your receipts and the ebates tracking number (found in your ebates history). They’re typically pretty responsive.

I get $0 since I didn’t read the fine print. Our past orders were typically ~$2k, this one was double. They don’t pay a thing for orders over $2500. Womp womp.

I went to Meijer (supercenter in the Midwest) early on Thursday, as their Black Friday deals started Thursday at 6 am. I got DD a Lego Friends set, a backrest pillow for DS, Madden 19 for DS (50% off), and toys for DH's cousins' kids.

I did most of my shopping online - I bought DD an AG doll (disappointed in only a 15% discount and no free shipping), DS a giant Nerf gun (50% off) on Walmart online, some towels from Macy's (about half off), and some clothes for the kids from Under Armour (for about 50% off, and then I got $18 in Ebates).  ETA - We also bought a laptop on Amazon.  It wasn't an amazing deal ($90 off, sale price of $709), but we also used some credit card reward dollars and that took another $140 off.  Plus we've gone over a year without a home computer and we really need one.  (We've been using our work computers for most things, but we don't have anything for photos or other personal stuff we don't want to do on a work computer.)

Overall, I was a little disappointed in the sales - I felt like discounts were less than the past few years. Must be a sign of a strong economy.

k3am, Omg I would cry. Not worth trying to cancel and re-order, right?

Nope. I have a small handful of orders that didn't get in on Friday for silly reasons, but it'll get me like $20 maybe.
