1. Free Money – You don’t need to make a purchase to qualify for the prize, but if you do make a purchase of $20 or more, within 90 days, you’ll get a $5 bonus deposited to your account. Because Ebates has more than 1,200 online retailers, it will be pretty easy to find a place to shop. Here are some great options to get started:

Incentives tend to be really good around special holidays.

3. Extra Discounts – There are no coupon codes required to receive cash back, so you can take advantage of sales and discount codes from specific retailers AND get cash back. My favorites to double up on include Old Navy/The Gap, Restaurant.com, JCPenney, and photo sharing site like Shutterfly and the Kodak Gallery.
