Amazon can be amazing…..

I am always amazed at what I find on Amazon !

Yesterday I received an online order from TJMaxx: a beautiful hunter green leather shoulder bag. After I transferred stuff from my old bag, I was still happy with my purchase except for the shoulder strap: too long and bulky.

Well, I found a leather replacement in that color which will work a lot better. Thinking I may want to press my luck and go for ma

@jlkz,

I didn't know TJMaxx has online orders! We have one just a little too far. I'm going to check out the online store

What I don't always like about Amazon is that they have so many choices I get overwhelmed!

The bad thing about TJMaxx online is you can't search by brand name. You have to wade through a lot of crazy looking clothes!

remember to go on line through the Rakuten cash back. You need to complete your whole order by yourself. Once Customer Service handles it, no cashback.

@jlkz,

I just use mrrebates because I used to have ebates before it was rakuten and they rarely gave me credit for anything. I know mrrebates never gives as much but at least they usually acknowledge that I got cash back. It may have changed but I guess I don't want to have a lot of different ones.

Amazon has no cash back on Rakuten.

I know you like to only use one site but Topcashback and Befrugal give higher percentages. I have had no problems with either site. I always like to get the most for my money. QVC is 15% on Befrugal.

Amazon is the best. They have everything you could possibly need or want. I always go to their site when I am looking for something that is unusual.

Also, on Topcashback you can request your payouts when your money appears, no waiting. On Befrugal, you get your money when it is available but you have to wait 15 days before each withdrawal. Otherwise, the sites are customer friendly.

I have been going through my Capital One credit car a lot because they rebate from many places I shop, the percentages are good and I have it accounted for.

I love Amazon. They truly have just about everything.

I can find small parts for our RV that I would have to order and wait for weeks from the RV store.

They sell parts for recliners too. I saved money by not having to call someone to repair a chair that just needed a small part.

I love their food section. I don't have to drive from store to store looking for an ingredient that is not common.

They sell major brands of clothing and shoes for way less money than anywhere else and they allow you to order, try on and return if you decide you don't want them without laying out a dime.

I ordered upholstery foam and fabric. They have a huge selection.

Over the years I have spent a lot, but they have saved me a lot of money too.

The poster wanted to use TJMaxx....and they are on Rakuten which for the Black Friday period had a very generous cashback %

As long as I have been using Rakuten, Amazon has never been a participant.

She was talking about Amazon to get her green strap. Rakuten has only coupons for TJMaxx.

I use my Amazon credit card and get 5% back. Can I stack other cashback sites or will they replace the cc one?
