Saw this on facebook. Assume if you click through the link it would work but may be YMMV. I bought a gift card on TopCashBack to save an extra 3.3%.

https://try.gotoaisle.com/popchips-scl (if link doesn’t work, open in Incognito). Did this ~5 months ago, but was able to do it again. The chips are pretty good too.

If you’re going to do SB, make sure to do the other cash back apps as they sometimes have overlapping restaurants/bars/breweries. I recently ate a local restaurant that was 4% back at SB, 18% back at Upside, 5% back at Dosh and 5% back with T-Mobile Dining. I also got $10 bonus offers with Upside and T-Mobile. So on a ~$54 bill, I got around $32 back. That was pretty unusual obviously but if you are going to go there anyway, might as well earn a few bucks back.

Note, if you don’t have T-Mobile, Rakuten must use the same network as you can’t add cards to both apps at the same time. Now that I got my T-Mobile bonus, I’ll switch back to Rakuten since T-Mobile you have to build up $10 before you get credited, whereas Rakuten just comes back every quarter no matter how much you earned.

@my4mainecoons said in New Target Red Card Reloadable, Not linked to your bank, not a credit card, get $40 Ends 12/10:

I have 80+ bottles of Tide.

Just an FYI, the enzymes in laundry detergent do degrade over time. They remove the stains, so if you don’t get a lot of stains it might not matter that much to you. Source: I work in laundry detergent product development.

This is a decent one. Should cost around $5 for 8 cans of Guinness with $10 groceries purchase which is easy to do obviously.

I have to say that after posting this, I’ve had no issues with Upside and only positive experiences. They did credit me for the receipt above and they’ve made it so you don’t have to submit the receipt so it avoids the issue I had where the receipt didn’t have the last 4 digits. I just went to the same place I complained about above and was credited in a day or so. Due to stacking codes I was able to save about 30% off 2 gas fill ups so that saved about $30. I also was able to refer my SO and we both made money on that and we’ve made some money in her account as well so we’re probably around $100 back in the last few months. So I’d recommend Upside if you aren’t using it.

Finally found a code that works! “Perksatwork230” for 30 cents off a gallon for next 2 fillups. Whatever code I had before was giving me 12-13 cents off, so now I’m seeing 42-43 cents off. Better than nothing.

Receipt must be dated between April 9, 2024, and May 7, 2024. All requests must be made by May 14, 2024.

Surprised this hasn’t been posted (that I could find). Did it with both our phone numbers and got paid within a few days. First time I paid full price for a 12 pack - $10, but got $1 back with Snipp (BOA grocery deals) and 50 cents back with my Citi Custom Cash (5% of $10) so not bad for 50 cents.

2nd time, I got it on sale for $3.99 and was surprised they only sent me $3.99 instead of $8. The Rockstar rebate gives you $5 every time no matter how much you paid. Oh well, free is free.

It let me do it with an existing account, but I don’t have a paid plan now and have never paid for an account.

@ctujackbauer said in Swagbucks Tips, Offers & Discussion Thread:

Ragu pasta sauce at Target is close to break-even again with the X pattern on the Swago board. +100 SB for buying 2, +250 SB for the X pattern. $1.99 cost for each jar of Ragu.

If you’re a gambling man/woman, then it’s a $.75 money-maker if you buy one jar of Ragu. +25 SB for buying 1, +250 SB for the X pattern. However, I’ve never actually tried buying just the one because the Swago board requires a premium deal marked by a star - it should qualify if you buy one because it has a star, but the vast majority of premium deals are over $.50 (50 SB back) and given Swagbucks tendency to send Magic Receipts into receipt review and not getting a reply back because this Swago ends October 31; all this means it’s a slight gamble for buying one jar.

That said, breaking-even on groceries is becoming exceedingly tougher due to the coupon apps recent lack of deals, so these offers are quite competitive, comparatively.

You could also factor in any to-do list and daily goal bonuses.

What coupon apps are still out there? Right now I’m only using e-coupons offered by grocery stores that are linked to my store card/account.

The digital coupons are probably best, you already know it will work with the store you’re shopping at, especially if things go awry at the register and your coupon doesn’t credit.

ibotta: still has good referral bonuses. scrolling through a bunch of deals that aren’t really spectacular, occasional freebies or BOGO offers. traditional bonuses for redeeming more offers is unobtainable for me because I don’t really do that much branded shopping. Redeems as true cash back by paypal or gift cards.

fetch rewards: this is the simplest, you just take a picture of the receipt and are immediately credited points (2.5 cents every grocery/restaurant/paper receipt for anything in a store) and their offers are not bad for the brands that partner with fetch. Redeems as gift cards.

checkout51: this one seems to be dying out, SmartSource (the newspaper coupon Sunday circular) bought this app a while ago and has kept it afloat. There seems to be a lack of new offers, although they also have the best recurring offer of $2 off $10 fresh beef that no other coupon app offers. Redeems as paypal or a physical check.

Tada/Magic Receipts: strangely, some of their offers are very competitive, even though they don’t have a ton of brand partners. And the offers for stuff like Fruit of the Loom or Hanes are unique among coupon apps in that they’re high-dollar amounts and recurring every week (you can use once a week and it comes back, extremely rare in coupon apps.)

coupons.com: this is the simplest, clip coupon, take pic of a receipt, get paypal instantly. the problem is that they rarely have great offers, and their offers on food are becoming even more rare. the other problem is they have restrictions on redeeming manufacturer coupons (paper coupons) or even store coupons (CVS Extrabucks or those instant register discounts at Costco) and every offer becomes a gamble as to whether you get paid or not.

receipt hog: takes forever to build up even a $5 cashout, but this app is quite good if you ever need to catalog your receipt purchases and need pictures of your receipts. redeems as amazon gift cards or paypal.

–

I don’t think anybody is getting rich off of coupon apps, but it helps defray the cost of branded groceries and sometimes generic store brand groceries. I buy generic store brand products a lot of the time just because of the hassle factor.

Good summary. Don’t forget Amazon Alexa shopping lists offers (https://www.engadget.com/amazons-latest-alexa-feature-lets-you-scan-shopping-receipts-for-cashback-rewards-124547327.html). 99% of the offers are the same as coupons.com. In the beginning, they gave cash back for offers that coupons.com rejected but I’ve now had some rejected when using another coupon on the item, so it’s a similar gamble to coupons.com. So I don’t take the risk anymore for a great deal unless it’s an item I would buy anyway. But it’s possible to double dip with both of them and occasionally other apps.

For me, I’m considering deleting checkout 51. It took me several years just to get to my first $20. I would go for long periods of time without having any offers I could use. Apparently at 6 months of inactivity, they will start deducting money from your balance, so once it got to that point I purposely redeemed a spaghetti sauce offer which wasn’t that great of a deal just to not lose any money in my account. So if it gets to that point, I should probably just delete the app.

@ctujackbauer If Tada does referrals, feel free to send me one as that’s the only one I didn’t know.

Previously, I was able to find enough to get ~$1.25 off per gal, which I’ve done 3 times now and can do one more time (across mine and my SO’s account). But I haven’t been able to find any good codes that work and stack lately. The last one I found that gave me an extra 15 cents off is TDU4W. Anyone have any Upside promo codes they can share?

The previous ones I found that worked and stacked might still work for others:
Amex35
Gopuff35
Shoppers35
Lucky7cash

Of course they have referrals too where we’d both get money.

Edit: this is by invitation only. Not sure how you get an invite, but I got a catalina “coupon” with a QR when I checked.

Kroger has a new savings app called Fresh Mode. It seems to work like their gas rewards, where you earn 1 point per dollar spent. They expire at the end of the next month and you can redeem them for rewards like cash back. I got 300 points for signing up and that’s worth $3 back, but the best deal is 300 points is worth $4.50 of Kroger brands, which is a no-brainer as we buy many of their brands. And I was credited for my purchase even though I installed the app and signed up after that trip. The one thing I don’t know is how long the rewards last after you cash them out. So if my March points expire April 30th and I cash out on that day for $4.50 in Kroger products, when will that reward expire? Anyway, yay! More discounts on food in addition to the discounts I already get.

Gotta love a 217 page pdf of qualifying products - https://snippdocs.blob.core.windows.net/docs/Nestle_Summer_Rebate_2007553/Qualifying Product List.pdf

FYI, Guinness upped their spend amounts and lowered their limits for their rebates. Grocery spend is up to $75 and dining spend is up to $20. Grocery rebate is once per month (used to be 4x per month). If you have Kroger, they regularly have Guinness on sale for $9 for a 4 pack and $5 cash back on 2x 4 packs, so for $18 spend, you get $15 back.

By the way, Astra works and counts as a direct deposit.
I pushed $25 from my bank via Astra and it triggered 1.25%
https://astra.finance/

I just did the SoFi/Swagbucks sign up deal back in February and still have an open account so I assume I can’t do the direct deposit bonuses.

I submitted a rebate 2 days ago and I got an email last night saying it was approved. Awesome! (I thought). I bought Wonder bread and vegetarian deli slices (the receipt said “Ham”). Both were $2.49 after sales so $4.98 total. Wasn’t sure I’d get approved for the vegetarian ham. I’ve tried multiple browsers and made sure ad blockers were off. Sometimes the site won’t even load. Sometimes I get to the point where I can click “Get it” for a $5 paypal credit, but I can’t actually click the button. What a terrible site!

Yesterday I paid $1.39 in Walmart. I had $1.50 Ibotta, $1.25 coupons.com and $1.25 Alexa shopping offers, all of which have been credited already. They only had a shelf tag for the ghost pepper version, but I saw another can of the Cayenne version. So this is definitely YMMV.

I’m surprised they’re doing all of that for just 5 bucks.

If they decline it, I’d try again without mentioning the previous request (unless asked). You may have just gotten a rep who isn’t as helpful as others. The offer is alive so they shouldn’t be giving you any hassles. You might also offer to tell them (or email) the link as proof )or email some screen shots).

Yeah. I saw people on Slick Deals say they refunded them more than $5 immediately. Oh well, I’ll just message in a few days when I still don’t get the gift card.

Well I messaged again and this rep said they’d give me $10. Just checked and they gave me a $10.01 refund on a Cottonelle order. Weird, but whatever.

T&C: Offer good only in the United States for (1) Blue Diamond Almondmilk® product. Offer valid on purchases made 1/1/2010 - 12/31/2022 as identified on the purchase receipt.

No post office boxes allowed; only street or rural route addresses are acceptable. Rights to the rebate are not assignable or transferable. Void where prohibited, taxed or restricted.

So interestingly enough, Kroger sent me a coupon for buy 1 get 2 free Serious beans. I feel like based on the way they handle this coupon, I’ll probably be able to use both coupons, but maybe not.

I did get to try the Buffalo beans and they are pretty good. You have to like Buffalo sauce, which I do. Kroger also just got the Southwest Smokehouse black beans, so looking forward to those in a burrito or burrito bowl. I’ve already gotten maybe 8 cans for free so I wonder how many I’ll eventually get since the coupon still works. I won’t make a special trip for it or anything, but every shopping trip I pick up a can.

This is working again.

Dang that sucks. Can you return them and buy the correct ones?

The 10 oz were on sale for $1.99 locally. But I made sure I bought the 16.5 oz size for $4.99. It’s a lot of grape tomatoes! Already had some for lunch and already made a tomato salad for dinner.

@ctujackbauer said in Chase Offers (Targeted) $5 statement credit on $10+ restaurant charge, activate, use by 2/28:

Mine disappeared early today. I added and activated the offers to my Chase Amazon and debit card when the deal came out, but both of them disappeared before I got a chance to use them.

Serves me right (wrong?) for waiting, I suppose.

Woah, both of mine disappeared as well! I saw on another site that said that that happens to them all the time with Chase offers, but as far as I know, that’s never happened to me before. It’s one thing if they say it’s limited to a certain number of uses, but I don’t see anything like that in the fine print. Guess I’ll start taking screenshots and I’ll have to check right before redeeming. Sucks.

Mine are back! Check the app/website.

Yep mine are back too. Now I don’t have to send a tersely written message to Chase

@mistercheap said in Upside promo codes:

where do you enter these codes? do they work only when you sign up or for existing accounts? Please give details, thanks!

They work for existing accounts. In the app, click person icon, profile, in promo code, click edit and enter it. You’ll get an error if it doesn’t work. If does, just back and and enter another code. It doesn’t seem like it will, but it will stack if they are accepted. Then back out to the map and you’ll see the discount on gas.

@ctujackbauer said in FREE Cone Day at Ben & Jerry’s on April 3rd:

I waited in line for 2 hours yesterday at Blaze Pizza - no regrets.

WOW! I’m so glad I didn’t go! I’m not sure what I would line up for 2 hours for, but saving $7 on a pizza isn’t it. But I’m glad you went and have no regrets

And now it’s back to working correctly for me - I can add the gum linked above to my May S&S order with the coupon and 15% off. Although it took my directly to the cart without showing me the normal S&S confirmation screen but at least the savings are correct. So it looks like it’s a 2 day period where I was affected by this.

Holy crap! I got 1000 points from the Fetch daily reward! That’s by far the most I ever got. I also got a 200 bonus for scanning any receipt. And I got 1640 points for buying 3 packs of Beyond steak (which was on sale from $9 to $5 plus had a $1 off coupon) that I didn’t even see was on there. So I got a total of 2840 points. The odd thing is there is a 1500 bonus, but it says on purchases from 4/10-4/11. Hopefully they don’t take those points away if they realize they screwed up.

@my4mainecoons said in NEW OFFER! $10 off $25 at Amazon when you ship to Amazon Locker near by (targeted):

My closest pickup location is a AAA office open 9-5, M-F. That makes no sense.

Is it possible the lockers are outside? The closest pickup location for me is at a gas station and they are outside so you could pick up 24/7.

Wow, that’s a ton of receipts!

My biggest gripe is the devaluation of the rewards. I still use it, but pass up many offers that just aren’t worth it anymore.

Brio Direct still holding strong at 5.35%.

You can do the same with Amazon. That’s what I always do.

I can pay my Spectrum internet bill. I also found that some online gambling sites will let you deposit with a debit card and then immediately withdraw it to your bank account or Paypal/Venmo. I tried it with Tipico, but the deposit got rejected. But it worked at BetMGM, but you can’t withdraw under $10. And they will occasionally give me free bets and I’ll bet randomly and sometimes win. Like now I have $7.50 from a free $5 bet. So I’m waiting for some beer rebates which will get paid in virtual debit cards (with no option for paypal/venmo) so I can deposit them, then withdraw them and my winnings. Of course online gambling isn’t legal in all states so YMMV.

I’ve been doing this every 2-3 weeks and getting reimbursed with no issues. I just submitted a receipt and it was 15 days since my last redemption and I got a response back that said, “Unfortunately, it looks like there are no rewards left for you to redeem on this campaign this week.”

I then realized I didn’t get the text two weeks from my last redemption like I have been but I don’t see why that matters. I sent them a support message, but I have no idea why I wouldn’t be allowed to do another.

Edit: So after I sent my message to support I got the normal “Ready to get even MORE Rockstar Energy?” biweekly message. I resubmitted the pics of the receipt and then quickly got the message saying it was approved.

This has been around for awhile. I did it back in June. The Chicago style (cheese and caramel) is delicious.

Did you post it?

I must say, I love when people post “this has been around for awhile” but didn’t bother to share it on the forums. Not sure why it’s necessary to tell us you’ve known about it for months only after it’s shared on the site.

Sorry. I just assume everyone checks here, which I’d say is the best source for freebies like this - https://new.reddit.com/r/AwesomeFreebies/

Like bourbon and steak? This might be a deal for you!!

https://knobcreeksteakrebate.com/

Would vegetarian “steak” work? But seriously, anyone finding a list of qualifying products? It says, " Full Terms and Conditions including Participation Mechanism and Qualifying Products at www.KnobCreekSteakRebate.com." but I can’t find them. It does say, “Any steak” but what about the bourbon? Any size bottle?

NB “Grocery” store is not simply common sense. WM food purchases don’t code as groceries. Anything purchased at Albertson’s, Kroger, Meijer codes as grocery. Due diligence before pulling the trigger avoids disappointment.

I’ve found this site is helpful in checking what category a credit card might code a merchant - https://awardwallet.com/en/merchants.

@mrvietnam Fetch is currently offering $5 GC for 5000pts at Meijer
Meijer.com

It’s been like that for awhile and I’m surprised they haven’t fixed it since I assume it’s a mistake since other Meijer gift cards are more expensive per point. Wish they would make this mistake with Kroger as I rarely go to Meijer.

They pay out very quickly. Found at Kroger.
