Earning Cashback or Rewards While Shopping Online

Lately, I have noticed a trend in my shopping. Most of it seems to be happening online. With many stores offering free shipping and a wider variety online it is quickly becoming the fastest and most efficient way to get a little shopping in.

Lucky Magazine Rewards

I subscribed to Lucky Magazine for this reason. They offer websites and prices for virtually everything shown in the magazine and grasp the concept that not all of us are celebrities willing to pay $1,000 for a purse. I logged onto the website and discovered "Lucky Rewards". This is a program where if a subscriber to the magazine, you can shop online by linking to various merchant sites through the "Lucky Rewards" site and earn cash back. It is extremely simple to use. Sign up once and then log in. I have been a subscriber for over a year and have earned almost $200 back simply for doing what I would normally do. www.luckymag.com

Upromise

Another great place to earn money for shopping online is Upromise. Upromise is not a cashback program in the sense that you receive money back, but Upromise will put money into a 529 fund or can be linked to some loan programs. Even more exciting about Upromise is that linking grocery cards or certain credit cards will even earn you money for getting gas or groceries etc. www.upromise.com

Bing Cashback

Another cashback option is using the MSN search engine "Bing". By using this search engine, when you search for products/merchants anything with a cashback coin next to it means they are eligible. Go to http://www.bing.com/cashback/ to sign up. This is not a cashback method that I have tried yet but from those that I know that have it is easy and painless.

Fatwallet

Earn cashback at www.fatwallet.com also. Here you can get coupons or participate in cashback for online shopping like in the previous sites. With many merchants to choose from you should have no trouble earning cash back.

As you can see there are many ways to earn cashback or rewards for doing something that you do anyway. Shopping online is quick, fast and now you can earn money for doing it. I try to look for merchants that over free shipping such as www.endless.com or flat fee shipping like www.overstock.com for $2.95 shipping on everything. This way the cashback you earn is not simply supplementing what you are paying for in shipping. Most of the sites above will also advise you of sales or promotions that merchants are running to make life simple.

Happy Shopping!
