i use ebates, mr rebates, extrabux, and bigcrumbs every time i shop online. it is nice to get some money back after shopping! i tend to use mr rebates the most. i like to save up my rebates to get larger checks and generally prefer to request them rather than having them automatically sent. they are all good and safe sites, no problems at all. you will be surprised at how fast all of the money adds up, especially if you do most of your shopping online.

I only use Mr. Rebates and have been participating about 10 years. I have collected $4,527.21 as of today. I put my merchandise in my cart at QVC, then sign on to Mr. Rebates which takes me back to the Q and I check out. I have my rebate applied to my Paypal account and can either transfer or to my bank account or spend it.

Always check ShopAtHome, they offer a 110% rebate back if you find a better rate elsewhere they match it and add another 10% of it too. I always check several sites, then often end up using SAH.

I have a question about EBATES I can't find the answer to.  

 

Is there a time limit on the cash back or does the cash accumulate forever?  If they issue a check or post to PP account every 3 months do I get what I have earned at that time or does EBATES wait until I have reached a cash back amount. 

 

I don't do a lot of shopping but I like the idea of getting cash back if it is available to me.

You never know when you will make a big purchase and it all adds up.

 

Thank You!

I use Mr. Rebates and have for years.  I've never had any problems.  It's easy to use and free.  They don't bother me with advertising e-mails either.

I have a question re: Ebates.

I signed up a short time ago and it seems like it takes forever for the cash back from some stores to be deposited into my ebates acct. I had to go back and ask 'where's my cash back'? for about 5 stores the past couple days from larger $$$ purchases made in early October. Yes I was owed the cash back and once I asked where it was, it was deposited. For a few of them I already erased my confirmation email and no longer had an order number- it was over a month ago. So I couldn't get anything then.

Is this common?

I was considering signing up for their cash back button without having to sign in, does that really work? I'm thinking not very well due to the above problem I'm having now.

tia-


I've had to as a few times where is my cash back and they have always given it to me.  

 

I have the cash back button from ebates on my browser and I like it because I don't have to remember to go to ebates first.  It will flash and ask if want to activate it, showing what the % of the rebate is.

 

I also like that ebates automatically sends a check every quarter.
