spend money+get money back=spend less money…
I came across this site today while I was looking for a promotional code to save money at the Puma store. I signed up; which was incredibly easy… put in my e-mail address and create a password. After searching for Puma and following the link I was able to get 6% back on my purchase. The cash will be deposited back into my E-bates account in 2-3 days. In addition I received a $5 sign up bonus.
This isn’t a way to make money per se… but to spend less money on things you would be purchasing anyway.
The site is incredibly easy to navigate and is laid out in a way that makes it simple to find the store you are looking for.
I was not paid to make this post; I just think it is a very good idea. I am already a member of MyPoints which is a similar service. But, they give you points towards gift cards, etc instead of cold hard cash!
Here is the information on their About us page:
“Ebates is the pioneer and leader of online Cash Back Shopping. The company was founded in 1998 by two Deputy District Attorneys in Silicon Valley who used to prosecute online fraud & identity theft before starting Ebates (so you can be sure we are very into secure online transactions!). So go ahead, sign up and start shopping now. Joining Ebates is always free - you’ll never pay us anything. And four times a year or more, we’ll mail you a Big Fat Check, or transfer the money to your PayPal account if you’d prefer. We can even send the money to your favorite charity. All 100% free.
People often ask: “This sounds too good to be true, how are you able to do it?” It really is quite simple. Just like almost every other online shopping center, we get a commission from the stores when you make a purchase. Instead of keeping that money - like almost all other sites do - we share it with you!
So, as long as 900+ of the world’s top online stores are happy to pay a bonus to attract the new, valuable customers we send their way, Ebates is going to continue to send Big Fat Checks to our satisfied customers across the globe.”

Have you tried http://www.taxslayer.com. I did my fed and state taxes on this website this year. It was only $9.95 which is a mere fraction of TurboTax.com and I got my refunds electronically transmitted directly into my bank account in just days. It’s great. You should check it out.

I know what you mean Beverly, you’re shopping online anyway, why not get a little something back!
I’ve been using http://www.savingswatch.com for over a year now, and have saved well over $100 since I started. It works like Ebates too but offer much higher cashback!
It’s worth checking out!
Happy Shopping
