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 just used Ebates to order through Disney Store this morning, I’ve been a happy member for 4 years now. I would probably gift the Nano to my dad because he helps me out with school and childcare and I think he would love it!

Every evening we take our 2 boys on a night walk to help them wind down, so alittle music along the way would be even more relaxing for me.

I would keep this if I won and share with my BF because I spilled water on his doing dishes about a year ago now and I have yet to replace his. 🙁
