Ebates.com is the only cashback rewards program that I am using now for shopping online. If you do not know what is Ebates.com and how it works, please refer to my post about ebates.com. If you join ebates.com now, you can get free $5 bonus for signing up and making a purchase (you have to make a purchase to make the $5 bonus eligible). Ebates.com used to provide check or paypal to pay your cashback (you need to earn >$5 to get paid). But now Ebates.com is offering FAST CASH which allows you to easily use your cashback rewards at Ebates.com without getting checks or paypal payments.
To me FAST CASH is really functional, you can use your FAST CASH to make online purchase, or transfer money to your bank account, or even order a real plastic visa prepaid card with your balance at Ebates.com and use it at checkout!
When you choose to use FAST CASH, you will be issued a free VISA virtual account. It has a credit card/debit card-like card number, expiration date, security code and your billing address. This VISA virtual account has all the payment information you need to shop online. Your Visa virtual debit card is used just like a credit card – but it is not a credit card and carries no interest charges or annual fee.
Since you can not exceed the amount in your account, you can add a credit card to relate your VISA virtual account and make a payment just like a credit card. But this feature will add more security for your online shopping! You can also transfer your balance to your bank account or request a real plastic visa credit to use. I really like ebates. The cashback is really fast and they are very reliable.
Start shopping with Ebates.com and earning cashback now! Read more…
I’m writing this post because I find that many of you might be not aware that if your apartment is listed at Rent.com (an Ebay company), you are eligible to get $100 visa Rewards Card from Rent.com. I just received this $100 visa rewards card today so this promotion should work.
The process to get the $100 rewards card is pretty easy. All you have to do is using Rent.com to find your new apartment. If you find an apartment that features the $100 Reward Card and tell the leasing office that you found the property on “Rent.com” when you visit. After you lease, just report your lease on the Rent.com website. And then Rent.com will take care of everything!
But please be advised that not all of properties listed at Rent.com will award $100 rewards card. You have to find the ones that features the $100 Rewards card. That how they work:
Some properties featured on our site pay us a fee only when their Rent.com advertisement results in a lease. When a renter reports their lease at one of those properties to us, we know to contact that property to collect our advertising fee. So for those properties, we reward renters for telling us about their lease by offering a $100 prepaid Visa® debit card!
More information about this $100 visa rewards card is here. According to the rule, you have to report your lease to Rent.com within 60 days of move-in. It takes about 6~9 weeks to receive the $100 rewards card after you report your lease to Rent.com. Good Luck!!!

I first reported the huge 35% cash back from eBay via Microsoft live search in June 2008. I personally saved a lot of money through this trick for purchasing at eBay. There are even many other more crazy deals from Microsoft live search, for example, 40% cash back from HP on Black Friday, 25% cash back from AT&T and T-mobile or other places. If you are looking for something on eBay, it is wise to use Live Search to save additional money for you.
The microsoft cash back for purchasing at eBay has been stopped for a while. Now it comes back!
Following is a brief guide on how to get the eligible links through live.com.
Open your IE and go to live.com. Search “Xbox”, if you can not see any links, just refresh the page several times. It will come out finally. If you are using firefox, I’m sorry it does not work. It is also reported that Sarafi can also provide the 25% link.
If you are using firefox, you can search “Xbox”, “t43″, “onkyo”, “PS3″ or “wii cheap”. It will give you 8% cash back links.

For people who are still looking for discount from T-Mobile and AT&T, this is a great news! Live Cash Back actually is still offering 25% cash back for T-Mobile and AT&T. If you want to buy a new phone, you should try to use the 25% cash back.
It is pretty easy to get the link work. Go to Live.com and type in “T-Mobile” or “ATT, ATT phone, ATT plan” and the link for the 25% will appear on the screen.
I know some may do not know how to do it. Here is the link for T-mobile, and this is the link for AT&T.
Combined with my previous posts on how to save money on monthly bills from mobile carriers. I believe you can save a lot of money on your cell phone bill.
