Do you shop?

I love to shop.  But I'm still a bargain shopper.  If I am going to shop I want the best deal and I want a little something something in return.

Shopping online is a no-brainer.  You can easily compare prices and find promo or coupon codes so you know you are getting the best bang for your buck.  I like the best bang.

I've talked about Ebates before and I will say it again: If you are not using Ebates before you make an online purchase you are loosing free money.  

Every time I know I am going to make an online purchase I first check to see if the retailer is on Ebates.  Let's use Sephora as an example:

Each retailer has a different percent cash back offer for your purchases and the only catch is you have to shop through the Ebates link.

As you can see in the above picture, Ebates will give you 4% cash back on any purchase you make at Sephora through the Sephora Ebates link.  These percentages are not fixed.  I've seen cash back offers as high as 20% for retailers that I like and purchase from (I.e. Joyus).

Once you click the retailer link you are taken to Sephora, or whichever website you desire, where you can shop around, complete your purchase as usual, and then you just wait for your big, fat check.

Get it girl!

And if you don't want a check Ebates will deposit your quarterly payout into your PayPal account.  Ebates you are so good to me.

$125 may not seem like a lot of money to some, but every little bit adds up.  This is money that I can take on my upcoming vacation and I didn't do anything for it, but shop like I normally do.  I don't get spammed.  I haven't encountered any weird viruses.  I've just gotten paid.

Ebates offers referral perks.  Sometimes it's cash, sometimes it is entries into a free trip, sometimes it is both.  Right now the referral perk is $5 for every person who signs up with my unique link and an entry into a free trip to Hawaii.
