1.  Ebates  – Use ebates for your online & in-store shopping.  Add a toolbar to your browser that alerts you when there are ebates to be redeemed.  Push the button and it tracks your shopping trip to reward your percentage.  I have earned 1% – 10% cash back on purchases that I would already be making.  I’ve earned $283 just doing my regular online shopping.  You also receive a $10 gift card to one of several places they offer just for signing up! ‘Big Fat Checks’ are issued quarterly.
2. Swagbucks – Use swagbucks while shopping, you can earn points to use to redeem gift cards or cash.  You can also earn by taking surveys, daily polls, searching the internet, watching videos and a whole lot more. Roughly, 100 points = $1 depending on how you redeem.
3. Bonus Points – works much like swagbucks.   You can take surveys, get points for shopping, polls, searches, ect.  You are also able to get points for opening emails with no limits like other email rewards programs. Roughly, 159 points = $1
4. InboxDollars – Similar to bonus points, click on links in your inbox to receive $$.  There is a limit to how many you can get without signing up for an offer.  You can also take surveys.
5. Taking surveys
   1. Harris Polls Online
   2. Pinecone Research
   3. Cash Crate
   4. So many more
6. Walmart Savings Catcher – Use the Walmart app to upload your receipts from Walmart.  They price match and give you cash back for the difference.  You also have your receipts on your phone so you don’t have to worry about where you’ve lost your receipt.
7. Checkout51 & Iobatta – Download these apps to receive cash back for your grocery and some department store purchases.  Just upload your receipt and choose your savings.

I have earned a lot of bonuses and cash back.  It has come in very handy, espeically for the holidays!  Enjoy and let me know if they work for you!
