Its been awhile... I know, but I'm back with a really good deal. Over the past Christmas holiday I did a lot of online shopping. Halfway through I learned about a company called Ebates. Basically you sign up with them to use sites that they have affiliations with. Depending upon what the deal they have going on with that website you get money back for your purchase.
For example, right now Nordstroms has 5% cash back on their purchases. So if you spend $100 on their website you'll get a check in the mail for $5.00. Not too bad considering you don't have to do anything special other than accessing Nordstroms website via Ebates. Each store has a different type of promotion. Some websites have up to 10% cash back on your purchase price. The nice thing about this is that you can use your coupon codes without any issues. They also have a large list of affiliations including Macys, Sephora, Target, etc.
Now I'm sure the catch is that they are monitoring your purchases and such, but lets be honest... I'm sure your web browser is already doing that. At least you get paid this way. I've already received an $8 check and I'm waiting for another $5 check.
Shameless promotion:
If you use this link below I get $25 for the first friend that I recruit that uses this service. So do me a favor (and yourself!) and click my link!!!

Sorry I didn't post this earlier but I wanted to make sure this website was legit before I advertised :-)
Happy shopping!!!
