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?

@sonofzeus said in U.S. Bank Smart Rewards: 15% back on any Grocery Store purchase exp 2/14/2025:

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.

@sonofzeus said in Spend $30 in one receipt on General Mills products, get 13K fetch points to early Feb 25:

@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.

https://likeairsnacks.com/pages/free-bag

So here’s my experience. It worked fine at Kroger. The register accepted it right away even though it made it -$0.50 after the sale and digital coupon. But it would only take 1 per order. I tried to buy 2. The cashier suggested just doing a separate order but the digital coupon is only one per Kroger account, but my SO’s account isn’t under her phone number and I would have had to look it up so I just used mine so ended up getting it for $1.50 (they are on sale for $6). Took those and other stuff out to my car and went in and grabbed another to use with her account. I went to self checkout and the register accepted the coupon but gave an error since it was a negative balance. I assume the cashier was just going to make it zero, but he transferred it to his register and gave me the 51 cents! LOL I wasn’t expecting that. I had actually meant to grab something else so that it wasn’t negative, but totally forgot. So basically ended up getting 3 of them for $1. Not bad.

So I did the $/sheet math and this comes out to about the same unit price as Cottonelle on Amazon with 15% off for S&S and an extra 15% off coupon available now. My SO prefers Cottonelle. I think it’s equivalent to Charmin. To be fair, this is just buying 3 packs of TP because I have zero use for any of the other products like the mouthwash so my Walgreens cash is reduced. Plus I hate having Walgreens cash anyway. I rarely go there and their prices are so jacked up that I don’t consider it like having real money. It’s definitely a decent deal, just not for me.

@mrvietnam said in $10 in Paypal rewards when paying $10+ with Paypal:

Just as an update, I just got off the phone with PayPal customer service and they said that the points are showing as pending in their system, even though it’s not showing in the app. She said it can take up to 14 days after the purchase date for the points to show up in your account. So some of you that got points right away that’s great, but in my case, she sees it in the system, but it’s not able to be seen on my end yet and she says probably by next week they’ll post to my account. I don’t care when they show up as long as I eventually get them. So that was basically $10 off my oil change today at Walmart since zI use the Walmart gift card I bought for this offer to pay.

That’s good to know. I got a response from my email asking to forward the order so hopefully that will fix my issues.

@my4mainecoons said in $10 in Paypal rewards when paying $10+ with Paypal:

It might be buying gc from TCB that glitches.

I went TCB-> eBay for ink carts. Used Paypal and within minutes my Paypal account showed that I completed the offer.

Whatever the issue was, their support was able to fix it and gave me 1000 points that I could immediately cash out and transfer to my bank account. I saw the offer was still showing in my account so I just bought a $10 gift card through paypal and it immediately showed that I redeemed the offer and the points went pending so looks like I was able to get 2 rewards in one account.

Is mybeerrebate taking a lot longer than normal for everyone else? I submitted 3 rebates on May 3rd and the tracking shows a submit date of May 10th oddly. Two of them are “in process” and the other one is still “processing”

Yes… much slower as of March/April for me. I did receive 3 at once on 05May25, Still waiting on one submitted in early May though. No more instant gratification, LOL…!

Well glad it’s not just me They say “4-6 weeks” so as long as they pay out by then and I don’t have to bug them, that’s fine.

I’ve had the app forever so no clue what’s up with that. I ended getting 3 greetings cards and saved $5 and some clearance cereal so got 3 cards and 3 boxes of cereal for $4. Also got a $3 off 3 coupon.

@mistercheap
Kroger receipts don’t have a subtotal. They only show one value for balance, which is the price you owe after all sales, coupons and adding in tax. I’m also wondering how much they nitpick them, but would hate to get it rejected but it’s annoying to have to track it so closely as well.

Anyone tried this $1 off “food item” rebate? Looks like almost every state and they don’t define food item. I Just submitted 4 random grocery receipts. One only had a candy bar and soda. I probably have 24 grocery receipts this year already. I wonder if they mean restaurant food items, but I’d have way less of those. Sucks it will come as a virtual rebate card, which can be annoying to spend. Might not be worth dealing with 24 of them. LOL

Pretty sure you can’t combine Ibotta with Walmart cash.

Period 4 starts today.

My freebie haul this morning. 8x Egg Cheese Biscuits (not pictured small coffee). I had planned on ordering more but then I heard an employee say, “He’s still ordering. Enough already.” So I decided to stop. But before that an employee realized what I was doing and asked if I wanted them all in the same same bag and to keep them under the heater, so that was nice. I’m actually confused because I placed 2 orders before leaving my house and then several with the kiosks and I thought I ordered 9, but only got 8. Oh well I still have so many freebies left.

Did $1000 Airbnb gift card and $250 Kroger gift card through Kroger. Should get $250 back, 4x fuel points and this should push me over the edge for a sign up bonus on Delta Amex earning me miles and cash.

Anyone having issues getting paid by Avid/AMG? They used to be very reliable, but I submitted a Smirnoff rebate (https://cheers.smirnoff.com/en/home) on June 7th. About a week later it was rejected. I’ve messaged them on their site and got an email response with a ticket #. I can actually log into their support system and can see the ticket still says being processed, but it’s been over a month now.

@deerlee said in Amazon offering cashback for your grocery receipts via Alexa:

I submitted a receipt from yesterday a couple hours ago and didn’t get credited yet.

What’s crazy is they had 3 free Talenti products in the Fetch app which is the only reason I bought it and a $1 off 3 in the Ibotta app yesterday so I bought 3 jars yesterday. So I paid $12 for 3 jars and got all $12 back with Fetch and made $5 back with Ibotta and Amazon.

I’m pretty new to swagbucks and just noticed this email today. I got $120 for opening a Varo account but mosh0458 got $5775.26! How is that even possible? Is that someone in here?

@fivetalents Yeah I get that but how could they possibly do that many offers to get that much in rewards?

I got a deal before and bought the Dr Pepper ones and they taste just like Dr Pepper (should have expected that). They aren’t terrible, but Ill try a different flavor next time.

It’s basically the price it was most of the time in 2020 and 2021* but it’s gone up now so it’s a good price today.

*I developed a bloody Mary habit during COVID so we go through a lot of V8

@vegasvegan
Guess Vegas is more expensive than Cincinnati. The Walmart 64 oz vegetable juice is $3.12 here, which is $0.04875/oz. My last order was $2.97 so it’s gone up a bit, like everything else.

@vegasvegan
Oh yeah, that would make much more sense in the context of this thread

But I don’t mind the Walmart brand. I think V8 is better, but in a bloody mary with a bunch of spices, I’m okay with the Walmart brand.

Got a free bar today at Kroger. Thanks!

@mistercheap
Thanks for clarifying. I just recently started using it and I guess I read their terms incorrectly.

I was manually credited the $12.50 promotional credit yesterday for buying a $60 Amazon gift card, but this morning I see an automatic $12.50 credit was issued. I will call Amazon later today and explain to them the duplicate credits and let them know they can take one of the 12.50 credits back. At the time I called customer service yesterday I did not realize the promotional credit was not instant.

Their support reps should have know the rules and informed you it would be delayed. There is no way I’d contact them to tell them to take money back. They are giving out millions in promo credits. I don’t think they care about your $12.50.

Maybe common knowledge, but if you open the link in an Incognito window, it will give you a new coupon with a new code with an expiration date a month from today. So seemingly you can keep printing new coupons until they shut it down.

You pretty much figured it out Alexa app. Add offers. They are almost all identical to coupons.com, but not always. The process is pretty much - Buy item, submit picture of receipt, scan bar code. Get $ back as Amazon gift card. First time it took days, but now it’s been within 24 hours lately. You can double dip with coupons.com. Amazon has always given me my credit when coupons.com has rejected it (when an item was on sale, for example).

I opened and funded the account on July 7th. I have a linked external account, but when I try to transfer some of my money out of my Bread account into an external account, no matter what amount I put, I get the error, “That’s more than you have to transfer!” Even trying $1 gives that error.

To answer my own question. It turns out there is a 10 business day hold for accounts <30 days old. That gets reduced to 5 business days for older account. Kind of annoying, but it is what it is. I just wish they were more upfront with it. Here was their exact response:

Within the first 30 days following account opening, all deposits will have a 10 business day hold applied. Please note that this hold does not apply to direct deposits initiated by your external financial institution or wire deposits.

Following the 30 day new account period, the hold for electronic deposits initiated by Bread Savings (via telephone or through your online banking) will decrease to 5 business days. The hold time for deposits by check will remain at 10 business days.

Probably also on Amazon Alexa shopping lists for $1.25 back.

@mrvietnam Mines says 3 business days.

I just got this for a COVID booster. Figured it wouldn’t apply since it specifically says flu shot. But it’s annoying that it’s added as Walgreen Cash after the first purchase, which I didn’t know. I would have purposely bought something cheaper first, then bought something over $10.

I think you get it for the new Covid Booster too, however, personally I wouldn’t get them done together. Also, I think you have to wait 6 months between boosters? not sure if that ‘rule’ is still being applied with Covid. But the flu shot one is only until 9/30, not sure the T&C for the Covid booster offer.

Yes as I mentioned, I got it for the COVID booster.

Pretty sure it’s 4 months between boosters. My last booster was last Nov so I’m way past that.

@briarycliffs Thanks for letting me know. It is odd that I had that NBPR gas rebate several months ago that worked in OH.

Well not as of yesterday at Kroger and Meijer at least. 2 offers at each that didn’t have the new note about stacking and I stacked coupons and they both went through quickly. Maybe that will change, but for now, it appears that as long as the specific offer don’t have the new note, you can stack.

Sorry, it was yesterday morning. I already pulled out the money but sounds like they can pull it from my bank account but no indication of that yet.

It’s hit or miss for me. Sometimes they go through sometimes they don’t. Just had a Colgate offer rejected where I used store coupons/discounts as well. So I only do it when it’s still a good deal if I don’t get it.
