So you have probably noticed that I have been including a snippet about Ebates at the bottom of almost every eligible post. I’m doing this because Ebates is a great way to add to your fund! You are buying the item online anyways, so you might as well take a moment to go through Ebates and earn some extra cash.
I made it a habit to go through Ebates for every purchase I have made in the past few weeks. I am up to $37.33! When I get paid in February, I’ll add it to my Disney fund.
If you haven’t joined Ebates yet, I highly suggest that you do. You can even earn cash back on Ebay (which I just realized that I forgot to go through it for my last 2 purchases. Darn.)
If you have joined Ebates (or any of the other cash back sites), how are you doing this holiday season? Are you remember to use it?

I totally didn’t know that’s how ebates works…. We just ordered a $300 out door playset for my sons birthday through the Walmart site. We coulda made some $$$ back…

Kristin,
I have a question for you. I shopped a lot through E-bates over the holidays and have an amount of $39.00 or so coming from them. My question is “Do they automatically send you the cheque or do you have to request it in February?” I did choose for it to be mailed. Just wondering as I have not done this before.
Also I did find that U-promise is great for cash back., bit it does go to my daughters college account. I have $500.00 in there already and have only been using it for 15 months. I use their credit card (Bank of America) to do all my purchases instead of cash and make sure I pay that card off monthly.

How do you earn thru ebay?
Kristin from Couponing to Disney says
You have to sign up for an account with them first. Then instead of going directly to a website like Walmart.com, you go to http://www.ebates.com and then search for Walmart and click on the link to go to Walmart.com. Ebates tracks your purchase and gives you a % back via a check every 3 months.

I absolutely love ebates. I have gotten 2 checks from them so far, totalling about $70. I’m up to $25 for this quarter so far. I don’t understand why my friends won’t sign up for this (especially through me!)

I joined Mr. Rebates a couple of months ago. I got $5 for signing up and have earned about $2 more since. We do most of our online shopping through Amazon, so I haven’t managed to get too far with cashback sites yet. We also don’t tend to buy much in general. We don’t do the big Christmas thing … just one gift per person.
But every little bit helps!

I am ALWAYS forgetting to use Ebates! I’m going to have to make a big yellow sticky note to leave in front of my monitor so I can remember!
I did remember with my last few purchases though, thanks to you!! :) I appreciate all that you do!

It’s hard to get into the habit! It pays off, though.
