Ebates.com Review: Save Money When Shopping Online

by PT on January 14, 2009

Whenever I make a purchase online, I like to spend a few extra minutes looking for coupon or promo codes. I just hate to buy something with that little code box left incomplete. Don’t you?

If I don’t find the code somewhere, I at least make sure and head over to Ebates.com to get some cash back. Here’s my review of Ebates.com: an easy, safe way to save a little money when shopping online.

All About Ebates.com

ebatescomEbates.com is pretty much the best online shopping cash back website out there. They’ve been around since 1998. I’ve used them on and off since 2006.

What they are is an affiliate re-seller of just about every online store available. They pass part of their commission on your sale back to you in the form of a cash-back payment.

To get the cash back, all you have to do is click through their site to the preferred online store. Easy, right? Just make sure you have an account…

The Secret to Using Ebates.com

In my opinion, the secret to using Ebates.com is to treat it as just another tool in your frugality tool belt. Only take it out and use it when you are already planning on making a purchase.

By all means, if you need something, take the time to swing by Ebates.com and use their cash back discounts. If you don’t you’re simply passing up free money. Otherwise, just leave it alone. Don’t go into Ebates.com without a plan already. Happy shopping.
