Ebates - How it works, PLUS don't forget to use it when filing taxes!!

Ebates is one of the many websites out there that offer you cash back simply by starting your online shopping on ebates.com.  

Using it is free and easy. PLUS, you can use it when you do your taxes on sites like TurboTax and H&R Block to get even more out of your tax refund!

First, use your email address to sign up for a free Ebates account.  

Next, whenever you sit down to do online shopping start at ebates.com.  By using the store links to shop you can get back a percentage of total you end up paying.

For example, if you need something at Walmart, first go to Ebates.com, search “Walmart” and then use their link to head over to the Walmart page.  Complete your purchase in the new browser window that is created and your cash back will be credited to your Ebates account.  

Once your account reaches $5.00 or more you will be sent a check for the total amount.  Ebates sends out checks every three months. 

Ebates gets even better when you can refer friends.  With its Tell-A-Friend program you can refer people with your unique referral link and then get $5 cash back when your referrals sign up and make their first purchase of $25 or more.  

If you can refer 2 friends during one bonus period (a 3 month span) then you will get an extra bonus, totaling $50!! Here is the breakdown: Two $5 bonuses = $10 + a $40 bonus for getting 2 referrals in one bonus period = $50.  How awesome would an extra $50 be?!
