ebates + promos/freebies!

Soooo there are some good deals & freebies going on right now:

1. Ebates. Okay, if you are doing online shopping at all, like for Christmas or clothes or whatever, you need to use Ebates. I just found out about it a couple months ago, and its great. You get a percent back of any online purchase, and they send you a check (real money, not even a gift card!) every quarter. They also show you coupon codes for the sites, so you save even more. It rules, and it is legit--nothing shady. So sign up, and get some cash back. (That is my referral link, so if you don't want to use it just go to Ebates.com. Trust me, it is fab.)

2. Best Buy Free Movie Downloads. Best Buy is doing a promotion with a free movie download code every day, with a bunch of different free movie options. Fun! I got Elf for free with Friday's code, and Invictus with Saturday's (the codes show up a day after you enter your email for them). You just plug in your email address and they send you the code.

The only catch is that they put the code up at random times, so you have to watch their FB wall to see when to sign up each day.

3. MasterCard $20 Holiday Promo. Another great deal if you're shopping online and have a MasterCard. You sign up your card and if you spend $200 online (has to be online) between now and the end of the month you get a $20 giftcard. So if you'll be shopping online anyway (and going through ebates!!!) you may as well get $20, right?

(AmEx did one of these deals for Small Business Saturday last month that we signed up for--you spent $25 at a small business on 11/26 and within a couple days they credited it back to your account. Ours has already been credited. Watch for these kinds of deals if you are a credit card user!)

I'll let you know if I find anything else fun.
