Nowadays we have become more conscious about the money we spend every month. We are all looking ways to save money on everything we buy. So I wanted to share some real experiences.
A person I know needed to make some home improvements and in order to do so he needed to spend about 4000 in materials in Home Depot (after all we all need to go to Home Depot at one point in our lives) So, on Friday he went to this site and bought a $4,000 gift certificate at Home Depot and he elected to have it e-mailed. He received the e-mail and printed the certificate, went to Home Depot and paid with it. That got him $90.00 in cash back!
Another great example on how you can take advantage of this portal is when you suddenly need to buy electronics and you don't have time to wait for the shipment. So go to your portal, go to Best Buy and find the product you are looking for and select the option "pick-up in store" then you find the closest store and make the purchase. After about an hour you will get an e-mail saying that your item is ready for pick-up. You saved time and you also got cash back on something you were going to buy anyway.
We all have booked a flight on Expedia, Travelocity, Orbitz, ChepOAir, Priceline, etc. Ot we have booked a car on Avis, Budget, Enterprise, right? Well, what if you can get cash back on those purchases? You are going to book it online anyway!
My father is a doctor and he sent me a list of books that we bought on Amazon thinking he got the best prices for them. To my surprise I checked every book on a retailer called Alibris discovering that every single item was cheaper with free shipping! In all, he could have saved $194 buying from this retailer plus I could have gotten 4% cash back. That was the last time he ordered from Amazon.
