I have a fun giveaway for today courtesy of Ebates. They are offering one lucky My Frugal Adventures reader an 8GB iPod Nano (retail value $149.99).
Ebates is a cash back company many of us know and love. They offer cash back rebates for your online purchases. So for example, if you decided to buy an item from the Disney Store today, you would get 7% cash back on your purchase.
So if you spend $100 on an item- that would be $7.00 in the form of a rebate back. Easy! Now the cash back amount will vary according to the store- as of posting the cash back amount on Target.com purchases is 3%. So if you spent $100 at Target.com you would get a rebate back for $3. Sometimes the cash back amount can be as high as 50% or more for certain retailers- so it can really start to add up.
- To get started with Ebates you first need to register for an account.
- Then you will want to go to Ebates.com before you shop online. Type in the name of the site you want to shop at- like Sephora.com, Oldnavy.com,Target.com, etc..
- If they offer cash back to that site you will immediately see a percentage- for example 2% from Old Navy today or 4% from Sephora today.
- Then just click through the shop now button and shop as usual.
- Your rebate amount will show up in your account within a few days and they will actually mail you a check quarterly!
- If you are new to Ebates you can register and they will also give you a $5 bonus for signing up.
If you would like to win theiPod Nano provided by Ebates just register for a new account (if you are already registered you don’t need to do a thing.)
Then just leave a comment below letting me know what you would use your Nano for! Is it for yourself, for a gift? I would probably use the Nano myself for a few mental health breaks during the day (two kids under 3 can be a tiny bit noisy at times.)
And finally a bonus entry if you subscribe to MFA via email, follow on Twitteror like me on Facebook . Be sure to leave a second comment letting me know!
*Please be sure to actually leave a comment below. Any emails, Facebook messages or tweets will not be counted. If you are viewing this in a reader just click through to the blog to leave your comment.
This contest will run through Sunday at 4pm PST.
GOOD LUCK!
I would love this!!
I’d use it for myself! I’m stuck like in another era and I don’t have an IPod or MP3 player. I’d love to have one to listen to music at work or when going for walks. I’m already registered on Ebates:-)
I like you on Facebook:-)
I like to hoard gadgets for myself!
I already follow you on twitter.
I would use the Nano for my 7-yr old son. He has an arterial dissection in his head that has caused 3 strokes since Sept. 2010. He’s getting ready for his 3rd angiogram to check the healing progress. We’d use it to help entertain him during the 7+ hours he’ll have to remain flat in bed after the procedure.
My husband is in need of an ipod, and has been asking for one for when he goes jogging.
I LOVE EBATES. I just recieved a big fat check for around 45 dollars last month!!!! I would love to win the nano for one of my kidds!
I would love love love to have this ipod nano! I am going to run my first Beach to Bay team leg race (4mi. each person) and would love to have this to put music on for the race! I also want to tell you that I look at your website every single day-both on the website and on facebook. Hands down,you post the most/best deals each day.

I already have an ebates account. I would use this for myself! I have no new gadgets!
I would give it to my son! He loves listening to music and in the car, we can’t always agree on music!
I would LOVE to win the Ipod Nano! If I did win I would use it for myself, since both my kids have one and I am “not cool” like them 🙂 I would so enjoy listening to my favorite dance songs while on the treadmill or out for an evening walk.
I would use it for myself. I have never owned an ipod, so running isn’t much fun.
I am already an Ebates member, it’s wonderful! If I win, this would be a treat for myself!

Hurray for a great giveaway! I have been using Ebates for the last 4 years.
i would use it at the gym!
I think I would use it for myself when I go to the YMCA to work out. I have an older model and it’s rather large and hard to manipulate when I am on the treadmill. It would sure get used a lot.
I would use the Ipod Nano during my running/workouts now that spring is coming!!
I would use it myself on my daily morning walks! 😀
Would def use it for the same reason as you, wish I had this since the day they were born!

I would use my iPod @ the gym! We bought my 8yo DD one for Christmas, and I share her’s. So, I listen to a lot of Bieber and other teeny bopper groups! Lol!!!

I would use it for myself….expecting baby #2 (8 more days!) and would love it as motivation to work out and get back into shape once she’s here.
I like MFA on FB
I would love a Nano for my daily elliptical workouts! Well, not daily yet, but maybe the Nano would help that 😉
If I got this I would give it to my mom to bring her into the 21st century!
I would use my iPod Nano to assist me in starting my new adventure of running for my health ! I would store the music that will help get moving and want to dance and pictures of my progress.
This is what i would use my iPod Nano for!
Thank you for considering me for the win!
I would love to win this for myself, to use when I exercise.
