Ebates Rebates/Rewards: Shopping and Saving


Ebates Rebates/Rewards: Shopping and Saving

I used to be a loyal shopping at the Brick and Mortar branches of my favorite stores. Over the last couple of years my responsibility have increased, automatically decreasing my time to shop. My bargaining skills have also increased with my growing family. Shopping online enables me to save time and money.


Rebate websites has been huge. I have saved hundreds of dollars over the past 5 years. It is a great way to get discounts on items that rarely go on sale. In addition to sale prices and other coupons or coupon codes applied to your order.

The first Rebate program that I joined was Ebates.
