Save Money While Christmas Shopping Online

Wednesday, November 18, 2009 by Julien

Shopping for the holidays can be quite stressful especially with this economy. The flip side of this is that retailers all over the country are competing with each other to offer you the best deals.
One way to save time and money is by shopping on-line this holiday season. Merchants are often offering great on-line deals and shipping will cost you less than gas and the time you need to spend at the store.
But on-line deals aren’t the only way you can save money, I have a little secret that will help you save and in most cases even get cash back!

Everything detailed in this article is FREE and WILL help you save money on all your on-line shopping.

Before I explain how this works you will require two things, one paypal account (free) and one Ebates account (Free, they pay you $5). These are the two essentials to make this work.

Paypal is a great safe and secure way of paying on-line without divulging your payment information, it is also a very easy way to receive payments which is the main reason I am having you sign up today.

Once your paypal account is open you need to sign up with Ebates. This great free website acts as an intermediary between you and your favorite on-line stores. Ebates offers cash back and coupons to almost all your favorite online stores. Ebates will give you $5 just for signing up.

Now when you want to shop online make sure you go through the Ebates website first and choose one of the online stores from their catalog. For example you can type Target in the search and you will see you will get 3% cash back on all your purchases + they have exclusive online coupons.
Did you find something you like on Ebay? Why not get 2% cash back with your purchase? Simply open Ebates, type Ebay and click on their link to go to the site and the cash back is yours. Ebates will send you payment through paypal on a regular basis.

One way of making sure you use Ebates first is by bookmarking it and saving it under the name ‘shopping’ in your browser.
This holiday season make sure you use Ebates before you buy anything to get some extra cash and save some extra green!
