Ways to Save - Cashback Sites

This is the 5th of the Ways to Save series

Did you know that you can save money while shopping online?

Yes, through cashback sites.

Cashback sites work by getting a commission from the online stores when you make a purchase, instead of keeping the whole amount, they share the commission with you through cashback. The amount of cashback varies from time to time and site to site. Also the cashback sites will share online coupon codes that you can stack with the cashback to save you even more money. Once you try it you'll never be able to shop online without taking a peak at one of the cashback sites to see how much you can get save through using an online code and cashback. Oh did I mention signing up for a cash back account is free and some cashback sites offer $5 bonus sign on cashback.

My go to cashback sites are ebates and Coupon Cactus. I have other cashback sites that I have signed up with too as each have their own great perks. Each site has their own unique set of rules and cashback amounts so I've posted some comparisons so that you may decide which works best for you or why not just sign up with them all.
