Welcome back to Becentsable’s Holiday Boot Camp!
Have you tried using cash-back shopping sites yet? If you haven’t, you are missing out on an easy way to save money while shopping online!
Cash-back sites are easy to use! All you have to do is sign up (my favorite sites are Shop At Home and Ebates). Then, the next time you get ready to make an online purchase, you simply go to Shop At Home or Ebates first and search for the company’s website you are planning on shopping. You select their website link and place your order just as you would normally. In a few weeks, your cash-back account will be credited for a percentage of your purchase. These sites have an amazing selection of websites they work with on a regular basis.
You can typically choose to receive your payment by check or PayPal. The amount is usually around 4%. However, sometimes they run specials and you can get up to 20% or even more!
Both Shop At Home and Ebates will give a $5.00 bonus just for signing up with them.
These sites are a great way to stack your savings! One time, Disney had a great online sale to save 75% off and free shipping. I was able to also get another 7% cash back on top of this fabulous deal!
The next time you find a great online sale be sure to check Shop At Home and Ebates to see if you can also take advantage of additional cash back offers. It only takes a few seconds and it turns into cash in your pocket!

Thanks for this article.
I love Ebates and have been a member since 2001.
Because I buy nearly everything online, I have received back more than $1,200 in the past 10 years. That’s real money!
And most of the sites where I shop accept PayPal, so I’ve been able to avoid using credit cards.
Good deal! 🙂
