If you're not a member of Ebates, but plan on it eventually..

can you use my link?  I'm a few away from getting cash back for referrals, and I'd appreciate it!  When you sign up, I believe you get to choose a 10.00 gift card to one of the places they have listed as well.  Thanks!!

Sell me - what's the big deal? I've never signed up or looked into it, but I keep hearing people talk about it.

When you shop online (and they have most stores) all you do is sign onto your ebates account, then click on the store that your shopping at - usually children's place or carters for me, and then shop as if you were shopping online normally....that's it.  and then there are percentages attached to eat store.  Children's place is like 2-4 percent - so if you spend 150.00 in children's place, you get 3.00 in your account.  once your account reaches a level where you'll want a check (mine was just 50.00 bucks so I asked for a check) they will mail you the "big fat check" as they call it.

Honestly, you do NOTHING more, other than sign into ebates before you shop....

Other stores are Kmart, Target, apple, and tons and tons more...seriously most stores that you would shop online at are connected to ebates, and even if youd ont' shop online a lot, the amounts will just build up and then when you're ready to get your check, tehy'll send it...

does that make sense?

I signed up because everyone talks about it. And it looks like I get a $10 gift card (I chose Target) if I spend $25. Is that right?

But like Lisa I'd be interested in an better explanation. lol.

tell me if the above explanation makes sense, of if you have questions.  It honestly doesn't take work on your end, other than your regular online shopping....and I always wait till the stores have free or really low shipping (because I HATE paying shipping!!!)

Its almost like having your own electronic discount card when you shop online.

That makes sense. I pushed "post" before your response showed up.

I signed up and will give it a try.

when you shop online you log into ebates first and check to see if the site you are shopping is on their list.  If it is, like Target, it will direct you right to Target's site.  When it does this, it also creates a eBates referral on their end and you will get a percentage credited to your account for that purchase.  So let's say Target is 5%, spend $50 on Target's site, you will get $2.50 crdited to your ebates account.  Every three months they mail you a check or credit the $$ to your paypal account if you link it.  I just got $215, I shop online ALOT!  A dollar her, two dollars there...it adds up!

I just deposited my check for $147 the other day! It's GREAT on black friday/cyber monday! I did almost ALL of my Christmas shopping on those 2 days and all the sites were having double and triple cash back, etc. MIL wanted a subscription People, it was $50-something on magazines.com. On black friday, Ebates had 50% cash back instead of 20% on that site, so that was like $25 back right there. I LOVE ebates. I got that check for online shopping that I was going to do anyway for gifts so it's awesome for me! I mostly online shop.

I rarely go to a store and shop almost exclusively online.  There are some great stores on there..Target, ON, Gap, Carters, Wal-Mart, Kohl's...like I said, a dollar here, two there..adds up!  UPS is at my house DAILY!  If Amazon ever gets on there, my checks will be much much bigger..LOL!!  I also got something like $30 in referrals so that was nice.  FYI, Groupon is on there too!  I bought several items using Groupon credits I had (no out of pocket $$ on my part) but still got the ebates credit for the purchase!  LOL

Zulily is on there, too!!  I had no idea I could link it to my paypal account.  I have to go check that right now because, I'm ashamed to admit, I've actually lost checks they've sent before they got deposited.
