Rewarded, at last!

I signed up on ebates.com for several months now. When you sign up, they give you a $10 giftcard to Circuit City, Target, iTunes or Sephora.

Since then, I've used ebates when shopping online several times. Whenever I want to buy something online, I pull up ebates first to see if that website is one of the many that you can get cash back from. Stores I've shopped at through ebates include Delia's, Sephora, Snapfish, Office Max, Frames Direct, Coastal Contacts, Barnes & Noble, and Buy.com.

I've also used a few coupon codes listed on their website. I've gotten free prints from Snapfish and I got a mini train case filled with samples from Sephora.

I've also referred several friends to ebates. For each friend referred, I get $5 and the friend gets $5. As of today, I've accrued over $65 in cash back. I'm due to get paid in February.

Despite knowing someone that has been paid over $100 from ebates, I've always wondered if I'd ever actually get the Sephora giftcard or if I'd ever get paid. Well, my Sephora giftcard finally showed up! Turns out this site is for real, it just is not instantaneous. You've got to be patient!

So I'd like to invite you all to check out ebates if you haven't already. Also, if you have signed up, be sure to use the site when shopping online, neither of us gets the $5 bonus until you've made a purchase through the site.

Ebates revisited

Last week I told you about a website that I had discovered called ebates. Just a quick recap, Ebates is a website that gives you money back for the things you're already shopping for online. Just quickly scanning through the list, I've seen many, many websites that I'm already shopping on regularly.

Friday, I had realized that I had not pre-ordered Breaking Dawn yet so I went on Ebates, found Barnes & Noble on their list, clicked on the link to the site and I was all set up. There was nothing else to do but shop for the book. Two days later I got notice that my cash back had been credited to my account. Easy.

So here is what I suggest, take a few minutes right now to sign up so it is all done. Then, when you decide to buy something online, stop by Ebates first to see if the store you'd like to shop at is part of the ebates program. Don't forget, if you sign up using my referral, we'll each get a $5 bonus when you make your first purchase!

Quick side note, my weekend recap may not be published till tomorrow. I'm waiting on some pictures that I know you'll want to see.

Ebates

Just heard about this website from a friend on Kaboodle. It sounded interesting and I shop online all the time so I figured I'd try it out. I haven't actually used it as I don't have any purchases to make at the moment, but when I do I'll tell you more about it. For now what I know is that Ebates is a shopping site that gives you up to 25% Cash Back every time you shop online. You can shop at over 900 stores including Sephora, Zappos, Barnes & Noble.com, West Elm, Target, Victoria's Secret, Bluefly, eLUXURY and Expedia. Plus you get additional savings with exclusive coupons, free shipping offers, and limited-time sales!

If you decided to sign up with Ebates, we'll each get a $5 bonus when you make your first purchase! If you already shop online, what do you have to lose?

*Update* I just used Ebates to pre-order Breaking Dawn on Barnes & Noble.
