Shopping Online

Do you buy music from iTunes?

Have you bought something from an Ebay auction?

Do you ever order something online from Walmart and have it shipped to their store to pick it up?

Order your loved one's Birthday or Christmas presents through on online specialty store?

And, do you love getting cash back (rebates) for the things you already buy?


I recently stumbled upon a bunch of websites that reward you for shopping online. Instant rebates, no UPCs and receipt saving. Cash given back to you much faster than the 'old way' of rebates.

So if you do any of the above, why not get money back for it? In the process of buying that Nintendo DS for your child's birthday or your favorite American Idol song from iTunes, you can actually get a few dollars back in your pocket for saving or whatever you want.

I don't really do a whole lot (if much at all) online shopping, but I have a few times, and even a few times of a dollar back here and there can add up. I already racked up $2.00 @ UPromise for buying a Mother's Day present through them. There are a couple other sites I joined but haven't shopped through, yet.

Here is a breakdown of my top cash back shopping sites:

These programs are great (and FREE to use) to get a little extra money from shopping online, even if you only do it a few times a month (or year). A dollar back here and there is better than nothing. There are a couple others on the sidebar that I didn't mention. Feel free to check them out and/or try them out!
