i like mr rebates the best because i can wait and accumulate cash back and then get a rebate credited at the beginning of a month to my paypal. account.

i generally take a deduction every other month.

 

right now i have $205.22 in available rebates and $407.13 in pending rebates. i do have referral rebates also, so that makes the amount even higher.

Wow, Sun, you are quite the online shopper!! I am just the opposite, whenever I get $10 accumulated, I ask for a check. I figure, why let them keep my earned money. Better in my pocket than in theirs.

I know I should do this, but don't.

I've only used ebates and it is great! Free money.  I'm going to check out the others mentioned.

I just signed up for Ebates yesterday. I don't know much about these sites. Can someone tell me why you register for so many different sites. Can you use more than one at a time...or do you go through to see which one has the highest rebate before buying? Thanks much!

I've been using Ebates for several years and have done pretty good with them.  You need to retrain yourself to access the rebate site first before going on to the actually shopping site.  If you don't then you don't get your rebate.  Once you get used to it, it becomes more automatic.  I've been wanting to check out Mr. Rebates but keep forgetting to since I'm so used to using Ebates.

@Yardlie,

You can use only one per checkout. My personal preference is to use only one rebate site. But that's up to you how you like to shop. I keep mine simple and not worry about which site offers the highest rebate.

I use Ebates when I think of it.  When I have they are great and it is fun to receive the check.

 

After three years of using Ebates, I have not had a problem.

 

Just a few days ago, I put a reminder on my monitor in order not to forget.

I only use Ebates.

 

I like that it has a button for my browser that flashes if there is a rebate and they automatically send a check quarterly, you don't have to ask them for it.

Right now I have $46 in cash back and it will be sent out on 11/15.

It's not a huge amount but it's better in my pocket than in someone elses!

hi @Shelbelle

yes, i do buy mostly online......it is just easier and i am not a huge fan of the malls or town centers. i do have a lot of referrals, so that helps bump up the rebates. the holidays that are coming up will really increase the amount also.
