How To Use Ebates For Holiday Shopping

Ebates is a great online (and now in-store!) tool for earning money back from shopping. Use the handy browser button for current coupon codes, also.

I am going to be honest here: the holiday shopping crowds make me want to run for the hills. While it’s supposed to be the happiest season of the year, the people I encounter while shopping in stores sometimes turn me into a Grinch. I love Ebates for online shopping because it is SO helpful and after the holiday hustle and bustle, I get a check back! A little “treat yo self” gift.

Sometimes, though, I forget to check the website for coupons before online browsing…especially if I’m in a hurry. Browser buttons are so handy–I normally use Firefox, but most are available on Chrome too! By adding the Ebates browser button, the minute you reach a site with cash back, it will tell you AND if there’s coupons available. Ah-mazing, right?

It is super simple to install with Chrome or FireFox and it just hangs out up by your toolbar. When you are shopping on a website with coupons and cashback, the Ebates “E” will turn orange. Click on it (without leaving the site you are on) for coupon codes and get cash back! MUCH easier!

The Ebates browser button is the best way to find out which sites have cash back--plus available coupons! Find out more tips at @DashOfEvans!

Now when you’re shopping from the comfort of your home, this little button will be a huge money maker! During the holiday season, Ebates offers double cash back offers and keeps up with all of the coupons!

Now Ebates offers IN-STORE cash back too! Simply link your Visa or American Express Credit or Debit card for select stores. I haven’t used this perk yet, but I linked up some coupons for Macys!

Are you thinking: slow down! What IS Ebates? Let me back track a bit!

Through either the Ebates website or browser button, click “shop now” and you shop through the actual website you are interested in getting cash-back on. It’s completely safe and your percentage back will be added to your Ebates account. Not all stores have cash back, but quite a few do! Every quarter, any money you have accumulated will be sent by check or PayPal. It’s always a nice little bonus! If you’re a new member, you get a $10 bonus after your first order!
