Still not convinced? Ebates has been featured on CNN, The Today Show, CBS, Time Magazine, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and their customers are raving!

“I was skeptical back in 2001 when I first joined, but have been totally satisfied and everything is done as promised from you. I recommend this site highly, and anyone that shops the net is crazy not to go through your site!” – Dale Ann D., Malone, NY

“Since 2001, I have saved hundreds of dollars purchasing gifts for family and friends and of course, things for me and my home. The deals I have found from buying Restoration Hardware patio cushions to my Overstock down comforter to my KitchenAid mixer are FANTASTIC.” – Nancy R., Alamo, CA

“Ebates allows me to shop for discounts at my favorite stores, and earn Cash Back at the same time.” – Denise G., Pacifica, CA

“Ebates is the greatest… because I like getting the cash back on the thing I buy.” – Joe, Brentwood, NH

“Ebates is the best way to shop online – the deals are great and the big fat check is awesome.” – Jeanne M., Daly City, CA

“You should never shop online without going through Ebates first. This site is a bargain Mecca that gives you easy access to sales and rewards.” – Amanda K., Marietta, GA

“It’s easy to navigate around the site without a lot of effort for bargains and sales. The cash rebates are good, plus you can take even greater advantage of savings when you shop at the Ebates specials page.” – X.J., Berkeley, CA

“Ebates is one the most reliable rewards/rebates programs out there. I know exactly when I will receive my rebate. Plus, it’s great to get cash instead of “points” that you have to save up and eventually redeem. Second reason is the number and variety of merchants and ease of using the site. Ebates offers both well- known merchants and newer or smaller companies to choose from.” – M.I., College Station, TX

“The rebates are always credited within a few days unlike some places where it takes weeks to get posted, or not at all!” – Michelle K., Tucson, AZ

“Why do I come back? Pure and simple, it’s cash in my pocket! It’s effortless and rewarding. It’s a site that provides rebates on a quarterly basis, just for shopping at the places you usually shop and buying what you usually buy!” – Evan M., Simsbury, CT

“I’ve been a shopper at Ebates for a very long time, and it just keeps getting better and better.” – Cathleen H., The Woodlands, TX

I’m taking the pledge! I do most of my christmas shopping online bc with little kids, getting to the store isn’t a reality. I want to spend my precious “alone time” reading or calling one of my sisters!

I think we may do the 3-gift rule this year. You give each person in your immediate family a max of 3 gifts. One thing they can wear, one thing they can play with, and one thing they can read. Of course, you can adjust what the three things are.
