Everything You Need to Know About In-Store Cash Back

This post has been updated to reflect minor changes in the In-Store Cash Back program.

Millions of Ebates members have discovered how easy it is to earn Cash Back for shopping online. But what if you’re shopping at your favorites stores in person? Maybe you need to try on a few sizes, swipe on some makeup swatches or pick up a last-minute gift on the way home from work. Great news: With In-Store Cash Back, you can start getting paid for those shopping trips you make in real life as well as online. Here’s how.

Step 1: Tap on the “In-Store” tab in the Ebates App.

No app? No problem! You can also do everything you need on the In-Store Cash Back page on Ebates.com. Or get the app here.

Step 2: Find the store you’re shopping at, and hit the “Link” button.

In much the same way that you activate Cash Back online, you can turn on your In-Store Cash Back offer by hitting the “Link” button in the Ebates app. If it’s the first time you’re linking an offer, you’ll need to add a credit or debit card to your account.

Rest assured, your private information is safely stored in a secure, encrypted environment. Learn more about that here. You’ll know Cash Back is turned on when the button now says “Linked.”

Step 3: Shop!

Shop with your linked card at the selected store and earn Cash Back. Boom! There’s no need to tell your salesperson and no forms to fill out — just the magic of Cash Back. Why can’t everything be this easy?

Now that you’ve got the hang of it, here are some more tips & tricks to shop like a boss with In-Store Cash Back:

Stick to Our Accepted Cards

We currently accept credit and debit cards from Visa or American Express. Add as many cards as you like to your account; there are no limits.

Use It Like a Credit Card

To unlock the magic of In-Store Cash Back, pay the credit way. Yep, that includes debit cards. If you pay with your debit card and use your PIN, we won’t be able to track it. So when you’re ready to check out, remember: “Credit, please!”

Link Before Shopping

Always link before you leap. If you shop at a store before linking an In-Store Cash Back offer to your card, you’ll miss out on that Cash Back. Don’t do this. We hate to see you upset.

Stand by for Confirmation

The suspense must be killing you, but never fear. The wheels to deliver that sweet Cash Back to your Ebates account are a-turnin’. We will email you or send you a push notification as soon as the store lets us know you shopped with an offer.

[ebatesads id=”in-post”]

Treat It Like a Secret

In-Store Cash Back offers are exclusive to Ebates members, so your savings secret is just between us. Store employees probably won’t know anything about these offers. Lucky for you, once you’ve linked an offer to your card you can just shop and pay. Everything happens behind the scenes, so you can just keep a look out for your confirmation email.

Stay Tuned for New Stores

If you love a store with all your heart and it’s not on this list, just wait. It could be soon! Make sure to check back as we continue to add more top stores. Trust us: Love is worth waiting for. Stack Your Rewards Link In-Store Cash Back offers to your store-branded credit cards to get both credit-card rewards and Cash Back!

Get an Extra 3% Cash Back

What’s better than In-Store Cash Back? An additional 3% Cash Back when you shop with the Ebates Visa Credit Card! Here’s a little math to break it down: If a store is offering 5% In-Store Cash Back, you’ll earn 8% Cash Back when you use the Ebates Credit Card. Learn more.

See the Deets

Click the “See Details” dropdown under each store to see the offer limits, exclusions and all the fine print. You must link and use the offer before it expires, or else the chance for In-Store Cash Back will disappear like a stealth ninja.

Make Sure to Relink Those Offers

Shopaholics, this one’s for you. Once you’ve earned your In-Store Cash Back, you can relink the offer from the store and shop again.

We hope you’ve enjoyed this crash course on earning Cash Back in stores. Check out our video to see how easy it is to earn In-Store Cash Back. Now go forth and turn window shopping into Cash Back shopping!

How to Start Saving for Your First Home

Buying your first home can seem impossible, especially for a generation that’s under-employed, underpaid and saddled with debt. I know because I used to think it was unattainable. Until I bought a house. Last month. With my own savings.

I’m not going to lie to you: It required a lot of sacrifice, hard work and flexibility. But I’m here to tell you that homeownership isn’t a pipe dream. It’s a real, achievable goal if you set your mind to it and focus on one word: save. To do that, you’re going to have to get thrifty and creative. Use these tips and tricks to get started on your own path to saving for a house. A few of them will get you Cash Back at Ebates, which will put you even closer to the finish line.

1. Tuck Away That Tax Refund

You may have money to burn, but it should go straight into your savings account. Set up a separate account just for your home fund. One that you can’t easily touch and won’t be tempted to dip into. Before long, you’ll have a sizable chunk of change. Plus, you get up to 7.5 percent cash back on TurboTax products through Ebates, so you’re getting even more back when you file.

2. Clear the Clutter

Start looking around your apartment for things you never use or could live without. You’ll be surprised at just how much extra stuff you have. Start listing it on sites like eBay or see if any friends are interested in your extras. You’ll feel better because your space is decluttered and you’ll have some extra dough to show for it.

3. Redefine Your Essentials

Most forms of entertainment are temporary pleasures, so it’s important to think about what you can and can’t live without. Fear of missing out is a very real thing, but it’s easy to curb if you focus on what’s really important: your future home. You don’t have to live like a complete hermit. Just be mindful of your spending habits and limit nights out. That discounted meal or event from a deals site may seem like a bargain right now, but it all adds up in the end.

[ebatesads id=”in-post”]

4. Cut the Cord

A really easy way to get ahead is getting rid of cable. You can save hundreds per month by downsizing to a powerful internet connection and streaming everything. Plus, with an HDTV antenna, you’ll probably get 60-plus channels free. Put that cash away like you’re still paying for your full-price cable and internet bundle. I’ve been cable-free for seven years. You won’t even miss it.

5. Build Your Big Fat Check

If you haven’t guessed it by now, the name of the game is save, save and save some more. One of the best ways to do this is using a site like Ebates to help you add anything you can to your bottom line. You’re downsizing and being smart about how you spend your money. Ebates provides an awesome value by helping you earn on the things you already buy from the brands you shop. Any money from your Big Fat Check is money you didn’t have before, and every little bit helps.

These are just a few ways to get started. It’s really just about your frame of mind and finding little ways to boost your savings account. In a few months, you’ll look at your bank statement and appreciate all the little changes you made. And when you put that key in the door and walk in to your new home for the first time, you’ll know that all of it was truly worth it.

From cute kids clothes to refined but fun business casual women’s wear, there are many different style possibilities at Old Navy.

You can create your perfect outfit and then accessorize it with a pair of shoes, jewelry, or maybe a fashion scarf. Don’t forget about summer swimsuits and dresses, cute and comfy sleepwear, and all of your winter outerwear, all available in hot styles at cool prices.

While the versatility of Old Navy’s style is part of why it’s so popular, the amazing prices and deals are also a huge reason why people love to shop here.

Wondering how to shop and save more at Old Navy? Here are our top tips for finding deals and saving money while shopping at Old Navy!

1. Save 10% on Your Entire Order with the Old Navy Credit Card

We love store credit cards because they save you so much money when shopping at your favorite stores. They can also help to build your credit. When you first sign up to become an Old Navy credit card holder, you’ll immediately get 10% off your first order with your new card. After that, you’ll get exclusive card member discounts, offers, and early access to sales.

One of our favorite card member sales perks is the Old Navy Stuff and Save sale that gives you a 30% off discount on your entire order, and even on clearance items. What a deal!

Your Old Navy credit card can also be used at other brand-affiliated stores such as Banana Republic and the Gap so you can save across the board at your other favorite stores.

2. Find Old Navy Coupons and Earn Cash Back at Ebates

Next time you stop at OldNavy.com, check out the coupon and promo codes at Ebates first, and get a percentage Cash Back on all qualifying orders. By combining discounts from using your Old Navy credit card with additional Ebates Cash Back, your savings will add up very quickly. Build your new wardrobe without draining your wallet when you shop at OldNavy.com through Ebates.

3. Save with Regular 15-30% off Online Sales

There’s always a deal going on at OldNavy.com. The sale section of the website has regularly rotating sale items priced anywhere between 15% and 30% off of their original prices. Department-specific sales are also common at the Old Navy website. Whether it’s 20% off all denim or $15 off all outerwear, you can always get a steal of a deal with one of the online sales. Just go to their website and see what deal pops up. Don’t forget to check the sales tab!

4. Look For the Huge Sale Section in Stores

The good deals aren’t only found online. Every Old Navy store has a sales section that’s constantly updated with new merchandise as it comes in. This is a great place to find serious discounts on your favorite items of the season before they’re gone for good. Trust us, it’s well worth rooting through the sale racks to find that perfect item at an unbelievable price.

5. Get Free Shipping & Free Returns at OldNavy.com

To get free shipping at OldNavy.com, all you have to do is spend $50 or more. You’ll also always get free returns with every single order. Spending $50 is easy at a store with so many options and items to buy, and free shipping savings really add up over time.

6. Save Your Receipts! Save with Old Navy’s Easy Price Adjustment Policy

Old Navy is always putting things on sale, and that’s part of why we love them, but wouldn’t it be frustrating if you bought some stuff and just a few days later notice that it’s all on sale now?

With the Old Navy Price Adjustment Policy, you can get a refund on the price difference of your items if they go on sale within 14 days of your initial order. This makes it easier to commit to buying that sweater you really love without waiting for it to go on sale and possibly selling out of it in your size or favorite color. Who knows, in two weeks it may be on sale and you can still get that discount!

12 Reasons You Should Not Join Ebates

You’ve probably heard of Ebates. Maybe you’ve been meaning to join or maybe you’re clinging to the old adage: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Well, we’re here to tell you that you’re right. There are many reasons not to become an Ebates member. If you agree with any of the statements below, Ebates probably isn’t for you.

1. I really don’t need any more money.

Sure, I shop quite a bit. But when I kiss that money goodbye, I don’t want any of it to come back. Even though Ebates offers up to 40% Cash Back on the things I already buy, I’m pretty content with 0%.

2. It’s just too complicated.

You mean I have to go to Ebates.com, type my favorite store into the search bar and click the “Shop Now” button before buying something online? That’s, like, three steps that take seven whole seconds. My time is precious, thank you. See How It Works.

3. It has to be a scam.

Where does the money come from? It can’t be as simple as stores paying Ebates and Ebates sharing the commission with me. Good day, sir.

4. Freedom of choice is overrated.

Ebates offers Cash Back at how many stores? More than 2,000? Having so many options is just overwhelming, even though it means I can get paid to shop for virtually anything.

5. Paying full price is my jam.

Ebates may put thousands of coupons, deals and promo codes from major stores at my fingertips, but I’m just not a deal-hunter. I mean, I know there’s not much hunting involved since I can easily see a store’s coupons on its Ebates page, but, you know, reading. Ugh.

6. My friends definitely don’t need any more money.

If I gave my three besties $10 for making their first purchases through Ebates, I’m pretty sure they would never speak to me again. And the $75 in Cash Back I would get for referring them to Ebates would just make matters worse. Learn More.

7. I love missing out on sales.

Following Ebates on Facebook and getting access to daily Double Cash Back offers sounds awful. And getting sales alerts from my favorite stores sent directly to my phone via the Ebates App will literally ruin my day.

8. I hate getting the best possible deal.

If there is a better price for the same item out there, I don’t want to know. I can easily compare prices and Cash Back amounts for those Steve Madden booties by searching for them at Ebates.com or through the Ebates app. I can even scan products with the app while physically shopping at stores to find the best price. But, really, I enjoy paying the most I possibly can.

9. I also hate shopping on the go.

Being able to shop on my phone or tablet with the Ebates App is just too convenient. I prefer to wait until I’m at a computer, even if it means missing out on a flash sale. What can I say? It’s all about severely delayed gratification and missed opportunities.

10. I only like shopping in stores.

Nothing beats a trip to a mall. I can try things on, catch up with my friends and top it all off with a pizza pretzel. There’s no way I could get Cash Back for doing all tha— Oh. There is? I just have to add my credit card to my Ebates account, link In-Store offers to my card and then use that card to shop in the store? Well, still. See reason No. 1. Free money just isn’t my thing. Learn More.

11. I’ll just forget to use Ebates.

I can’t even remember what I had for breakfast this morning. It’s not like there’s a magic Ebates Cash Back Button that I can add to my browser that would automatically let me know if the store I was visiting offered Cash Back.

12. I definitely don’t want to get Cash Back everywhere.

The Ebates Cash Back Visa Credit Card sounds like a terrible idea. Getting 1% Cash Back on gas, groceries and countless other things, plus 3% Cash Back at Ebates stores? Rewards, schmewards. I also get a $10 bonus after my first purchase on the Ebates credit card and that just isn’t necessary.

What’s that you say? None of this sounds like you? We didn’t think so! Who doesn’t like free money and more ways to get the most out of shopping? Have any other questions about Ebates? Leave us a comment below!

9 Ways to Save More at Macy’s

Macy’s is one of America’s most popular original department stores that covers a wide spectrum of prices. For over 150 years, they’ve sold designer clothing, fashion accessories and quality home goods alongside great deals. With almost 800 locations, there is most likely a Macy’s close to you. But what’s even better than shopping in store is shopping online at Macy’s.com with Macy’s coupons, promo codes, free shipping offers and Cash Back at Ebates.

Since it’s a department store, you can find almost everything at Macy’s! From clothes, jewelry and makeup to kitchen appliances, bath towels and dinnerware. Rest assured, there are ways to save at Macy’s regardless of what is on your shopping list. Here are a few tips for how to save even more at Macy’s:

1. Take advantage of Free Shipping at Macy’s.

Shopping online is convenient but the shipping costs can add up. However, it’s easy to get free standard shipping at Macys.com. Just make a purchase of $99 or more! That won’t be too hard with how many departments and products they offer. Shipping options include standard shipping (3 to 6 business days), premium shipping (2 to 3 business days) and express shipping (1 to 2 business days).

2. Shop for the perfect fit or color with easy returns.

Don’t love what you purchased online? If the color is wrong or it just doesn’t fit right, purchases from macys.com can be returned at any time. If you have your receipt or order confirmation email, you can receive a full refund credited in the original payment method. Purchases made online can be returned either in store or by mail. If the item you want to return was a gift, you can receive a full refund in the form of a Macy’s “Happy Returns” gift card if you have the invoice or gift receipt. No invoice or gift receipt? No problem! You can still return purchased items and gifts and you’ll receive a gift card worth the returned item’s lowest selling price within the last 180 days.

3. Get the Macy’s Credit Card for extra discounts and coupons.

Sign up for the Macy’s credit card to get extra discounts and coupons. The more you spend, the better the discounts will be. If you have the Macy’s card or Macy’s American Express, you will qualify for special savings and offers of Macy’s Star Rewards. These rewards include surprise savings at checkout and from three to 12 annual Macy’s Star Pass mailings. Elite and Premier Elite Macy’s Star Rewards customers receive exclusive birthday rewards, 15% off bonus events and more. Your loyalty pays off when you shop with Macy’s using your Macy’s credit card.

4. Look out for monthly “One Day” sales.

Once a month (usually the third weekend of the month), Macy’s will offer a One Day Sale that has the best savings. Each month, the savings will be different so you can be sure to find great savings on your favorite items at one point or another. Clearance items will be marked down further and usually there will be a coupon to stack on top of that. If possible, wait until the One Day Sale each month to get the best savings.

5. Enroll in the “Thanks for Sharing” program for 10% rewards.

Every year from September through December, a one-time $25 enrollment in Macy’s Thanks for Sharing program qualifies Macy’s Star Rewards members for 10% Rewards. Ten dollars of each enrollment fee goes to select charities including Make-A-Wish, The RESPECT! Campaign, The Breast Cancer Research Foundation and Go Red For Women. So not only will you be paying a nominal fee for exclusive savings, you’ll be purchasing with a purchase knowing your money is going to amazing causes.

6. Save with Macy’s price adjustments.

If you shopping online and find that an item you recently ordered is now on sale, Macy’s will refund you the difference as long as it’s within 14 days of your original purchase. All you have to do is submit the request for a price adjustment online and the savings are yours to keep. Macy’s prides themselves on offering competitive prices. They value your business and will do what it takes to keep you a happy Macy’s shopper.

7. Shop during the Macy’s Friends & Family Sales.

Twice a year, Macy’s lets you take 25% off your purchase at the Friends & Family Sale. One sale takes place in spring, the other at the start of December. If you’re looking to make a big purchase and can afford to wait a little while, that 25% will definitely be worth it.

8. Stay in the loop with Macy’s emails.

Sign up for Macy’s emails to be one of the first to know about Macy’s coupons and deals. Macy’s emails will not only highlight new stock and seasonal trends, but also can’t miss deals you can be sure to stack on top of Cash Back at Ebates! Head over to Ebates.com, sign up for a free account and favorite Macy’s so you’ll get alerts on Cash Back specials.
