If you are going to shop why not get the most out of your shopping experience. You can earn rewards and discounts by using a shopping portal to shop.
There are a few really great sites out there that will help you to earn great rewards and discounts.
There are two sites that anyone that shops online should be using Ebates (free sign-up)and MrRebates (free sign-up).
*Compare Ebates vs. Mr.Rebates
How Does It Work?
It is easy to get the benefits that you want by using these shopping portals. You simply register and start shopping. You shop to earn points, the points add up and you can choose to get a check in the mail or earn gift cards.
There are typically regular offers that are available that can sweeten the deals. For example at Ebates there are regular rebates earned for shopping at specific stores but sometimes the rebates can double if you shop during certain periods. Black Friday is a big special rebates day.
The Ones To Use
Ebates
Ebates by far is the most popular of the shopping portals. With deals like 8% cash back for shopping and free shipping coupon codes it is hard to beat. If you are going to be shopping anyway why not get some money back? Ebates makes it easy to register; all you need is your email address. It’s free. SIGN-UP
Mr. Rebates
MrRebates is also a great site to shop. Free to join and most of the time they pay you a little something to join. It is easy to use and has a lot of the top stores on their site. SIGN-UP
FatWallet
FatWallet pays you back through paypal. As soon as you earn $10 they transfer it to your paypal account. They also have an amazing deals forum. SIGN-UP
Swagbucks
Swagbucks is not as popular as the other three sites probably because it is a little confusing to use but the rebates are really great so it is worth the extra brain power. SIGN-UP
Extrabux
Extrabux is a pretty good rebate site. They pay out after you reach $10 and you can either request a check, get via paypal or choose from gift cards. SIGN-UP
iConsumer
iConsumer is a newer site that does things a little bit different. You earn cash back like the others, but you also earn shares of stock in the company. More about all of that here. SIGN-UP
In all there are about 50 sites that offer some sort of rebate program for shopping. To avoid disappointment stick with the sites that have been tried and true and that have a strong history of paying out the way they are supposed to.
