love it: ebates

If you shop online and you like getting random checks in the mail (which should be all of you), read this!  Ebates is my #1, numero uno, first and best online shopping tip.  It works exactly the same as Lucky Mag Rewards, that I wrote about back in 2009, but has a larger selection of sites to pull from.  All you have to do is:  Sign up here -- and just by creating an account you can get a $10 Target gift card by spending $25 on ANY website.

So, in review -  while shopping, add things to your cart like normal.  But, before you check out, go back to Ebates and see if where you are shopping is on there.  If so, just click through the link on Ebates and it will register cash back on your purchase.  There is no catch; it's simply cash back for shopping on your normal ol' sites.  I use it all the time for Diapers/Soap.com, Gap, Nordstrom, Groupon...pretty much every site is on here.  Since I did all of my Christmas shopping online, I currently have $50+ in my Ebates account and a check is on the way in February.  Whoo hoo!
