 | said by AVD:on $2989 of purchases. I had that same thought before joining ebates myself. Then I realized, if I am going to make the purchase, I might as well get something out of it. Even if it is only 3%, it adds up -- No Victim=No Crime |

Then I realized, if I am going to make the purchase, I might as well get something out of it. Even if it is only 3%, it adds up I agree. I were making small purchases now and than. It's all added up at the end. Unless you do not like free money. Like billydunwood and AVD has said. OK lets say you have bought PS3 or Xbox, and some games or some hardware on Newegg or eBay so do not tell me it does not add up. Oedipus and jadinolf |

| I'm just waiting for a rant to appear, dissing them for changing their terms and conditions and boning you in the process. Going by your posting history, you have to be one of the unluckiest consumers on the planet. -- "Dance like the photo isn't being tagged; love like you've never been unfriended; and tweet like nobody is following." |

Oleg; why would I presume that you couldn't qualify for a credit card or didn't want a credit card because you use Ebates? |

I think Topcashback is much better if only because they give the full payout paid by the merchants. Sites like ebates take a cut of the percentage and give you the rest. -- Usenet Block Accounts | Unlimited Accounts |

 OlegBellsouth FastaccessPremium join:2003-12-08 Birmingham, AL kudos:2 | Thanks for the tip swintec. I will give it a try on my next buy  |

 | reply to Oleg In addition to ebates, there are also upromise.com, fatwallet.com. I've used all three. It depends on who give the highest cash back and what participating merchants they have.
One time I have to use ebates, because I was making a reservation for Holiday Inns. Back then only ebates have Holiday Inn.
Upromise, couple of year ago was giving up to 20% on Apple products. Back then when iPad was hot item, I was able to get 20% cash back rebate.
I use fatwallet more often since they have forums and is more convenient.
For those asking why not use a CC. These cash back program is click through. Meaning you still get your CC reward points/cash back AND the cash back. While it's not substantial, it adds up. $1000 cash back since 2006 is pretty good.
Oh... since this is broadband, last August (2012), I switched my parents dsl/directv to Verizon FIOS. Clicked through Fatwallet.com's Verizon Broadband link, I got $45 cash back. |
