Ebates is awesome - I never knew

[emsumm]

Damn, dude. I signed up for Ebates a few weeks ago, before making a bunch of random clothing and shoes purchases for me, H, and the girls. SO worth it. I'm getting, like $30-$40 cash back for nothing! It's like an extra coupon code, and I really love coupon codes. I got 10% cash back on Piperlime today, in addition to the shoes being on sale and 15% off. Sweet.

Dang it! I keep forgetting to check my point sites before I buy online....I bet I've missed out on a ton....

See if you can get the bookmark tool bar thingy ma bob. It automatically lights up if you get cash back!

[ginger]

Ooh! Smart!

I haven't done ebates, but I've used MyPoints and Swagbucks. I like Swagbucks a lot because for just a few points you can get a $5 Amazon gift card.

[ginger]

I'm about to sign up for ebates. First one to PM me their email gets the referral.

[emsumm]

I love Ebates so much more than Swagbucks, personally. It's easier. You just follow their link before you shop, and then they send you money.

[pugz]

love it! I was so mad at myself when I realized how much cash back I'd been missing out by not signing up sooner.

[ginger]

I'm signed up.

Looks like Chrome has a Ebates alert ap so you don't have to download a toolbar.

[ginger]

WAIT! AMAZON PARTICIPATES IN EBATES?!

THEY DON'T PARTICIPATE IN ANYTHING!!

I've missed out on so much cash back.

[emsumm]

Oh shit, they do? Dammit. I didn't realize! I just bought sippies. D'oh.

[bonquiqui]

I need to learn about this. I am a shopaholic

[emsumm]

Bon, if you want a referral, I'm on it! LMK

[Deleted]

So, wait.... explain to me how this works. You order products from companies through the Ebates website and they give you cash back on future purchases? I'm so confused.

[ralphlauren]

I love ebates. Getting paid to shop is my kinda thing. Too bad I forget to use true site 90% of the time

[lucky513]

Go to ebates find the store you wish to purchase from
Go to the stores website from ebates
Each store has a certain amount if cash back usually ranging from3-5%

You get a check a few months later

[ginger]

Yep. Legit.

I've known about it forever, but I've never joined for some stupid reason.

[emsumm]

Totally legit, and as lucky described. You find the store on the ebates site, click on it, and it will redirect you to the store, with your ebates ticket recorded. Then they send you a percentage of your purchase back in a check.

[sneetch]

emsumm, if you want another referral, just send me a pm - I want to try it out!

[dcannie]

For some reason several purchases I made in October haven't shown up yet. Is that normal? I'm getting my first check this month. One dollar!!
I always forget to use it.

[smucky]

Emsumm or anyone else - I'm going to sign up too. PM me if you want the referral- thx!!

[annyong]

Annie, you can get back credit if it doesn't post, using track my tickets (or something like that). There were about two months where I didn't get credit for my purchases, and I filled out their online form thing and ended up getting credit for everything. I love ebates.

I love ebates. Also, recently they emailed me saying my BIG FAT CHECK was for about $12 unless I wanted $13 in Amazon credit. Yes please.

I do this too. Ebates (along with swagbucks and to a lesser extent mypoints) keeps my amazon account fully stocked for when I want to buy random nonsense.

[ska]

Ebates is good stuff. MrRebates.com is great too. The percentage back is often higher. Lucky magazine has a cash back site too if you are a subscriber.

[iamgrace]

Why haven't I heard about this!?! The amount of money I drop at sephora and gap alone makes it worthwhile.

[emsumm]

Do it, Grace. Totally worth it!

[cereal K]

emsumm - invite me too! i'll send you a pm with my email.

I have made $798 in ebates since I joined a few years ago.
