Do this before you start shopping
First things first, sign up for Rakuten (formerly Ebates) – it is a cashback and shopping rewards company. Once you sign up, they’ll show you how you can use their Chrome extension to get cashback and coupons.
Here’s how it helps –
- Receive a $40 bonus when you sign up – To qualify for a Referral Sign-up Bonus, you must be a new member and place qualifying orders totaling a minimum of $40 within 90 days of becoming a member. You must be located in the 50 United States, D.C., or Canada to qualify. Offer may be modified or canceled anytime.
- Gives you coupon/discount codes that you can use with most online retailers.
- Shows you the best price across retailers – For instance, if you are shopping for an Instant Pot (or any item) at Amazon and if that item is available for a lower price with some other retailer, you’ll get an alert.
I use this extension throughout the year, not just on Black Friday, and get cashback on most of my online purchases.
