Thanks! I have now stopped using other rebate sites and just use TCB. I noticed the other day that in 2022 I had a total of $280 rebated back to me. Not bad, huh?

TCB often has the highest rates, and if they dont they will match it plus an added bonus

Tell us more about this site. How does it work? I went to their site and I have questions about signing in. Once you sign up for the Cash Back site and create your password, then you pick a place to shop. If I'm already a member of the place I'm shopping, for example, GrubHub, do I then log into Grub Hub once I'm transferred there from Cash Back?

I also have a question about the best way to get the cash back. I never use my very old PayPal and I'm not into using it. What way to get cash back is best?

Last week I ordered some Lessman supplements on HSN. I selected what I wanted and put it in my HSN shopping cart, not paying for it. Usually I don't sign out, leaving it on another tab, but you can sign out.

Then I signed in to TCB and "searched" for HSN. When it came up I clicked on the HSN logo which is a link and it took me to their website.

Since I had already placed my items in the shopping cart I went there and completed my order. The TCB I came from said my visit to HSN had been recorded, and would show up in about 5 days.

I then signed out and closed both open tabs. The thing to remember is that you have to go from TCB to whatever site you're planning to buy from, so they can confirm your purchase.

Let me know if that makes sense.

Some advice I can give you is to not put anything in youir shopping cart until you have logged thru from the rebate site first, A good way for your purchase not to track is to put items in your cart first.

@Shelbelle

Huh. I always do that, and have never had a problem. Have you? If so, what happened?

The only warning I've seen was to never buy the items and then go back to TCB and try to attach them to a purchase already made. No can do.

Oh! Thinking back, I have only had one purchase disallowed.

I purchased a large box of Premier Protein shakes from Walmart. It looked like it went through and I expected a 7% rebate from that one.

(I have purchased the shakes on Ebay many times, and they always go through ... but it's just a 1% rebate there.)

I noticed later that Walmart "disallowed" that purchase, so I challenged it.

Long story short, they categorized it as "groceries" and I bet rebate sites can't do rebates on groceries. Can you imagine? They'd all go broke ... or the grocery chains would really take a hit. Why should they offer a rebate on something we spend a lot of money on and need to live ... food?

I cant remember if it has ever been an issue for me, but I make it a point to never fill my cart first before going thru the rebate site, I have read not to do that on a few of the rebate sites. I am sure Top Cashback would agree not to do that. Best to be safe than sorry.

1) Always start your shopping journey at TopCashback and complete the process from here. Do not click from Top Cashback after you have added items to your basket or generated a quote.
