@Tinkrbl44 I have to give the good guy award of the day to ibotta...

I did a grocery pickup at WM after work today & I always go through ibotta to order. Shortly after I got home, I noticed I had an alert from ibotta saying they found unclaimed money back for me. It was a coupon for something I bought from WM earlier today! I just went into the app and saw the coupon & clicked on it to claim the money back. I am now $2 richer!

Ibotta saying, "oops! You missed a coupon!" Is great CS. If other rebate sites do that, I'm not aware of it.

This reminds me of when I ordered protein shakes from Walmart when their rebate was 12% on TCB.

Visions of large rebates from grocery purchases danced in my head, and I must say that I was a little excited about this discovery.

It was eventually disallowed .... I asked a manager, and he said apparently Walmart doesn't pay rebates on FOOD items (at least on TCB) ... they'd go broke.

Now I'm going to have to check what other rebate sites DO pay rebates on food.
