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 def use it to replace the one that I just gave to my sister for college

I would give it to my six year old daughter, as I have been wanting to get her one for a little while now. She loves to steal my phone and listen to her music we have downloaded there. It would be nice for her to have her own filled with all her favorite songs!!
I would use it for my workouts after I have this baby!
