I’ve been using seemingly the same lights since 2016 and they are perfect in the bathroom when I have to pee in the middle of the night but I don’t want to be blasted by bright lights.

I don’t pay full price for fast food so I’m definitely not paying surge pricing.

Until further notice, Wendy’s is on my DONOTBUY list.

You post a teaser like this, but no explanation? You could still go to Wendy’s for the treat, no purchase required.

I’m sure it’s because of the surge pricing, which they already walked back and said they weren’t doing.

@my4mainecoons said in I need a new computer:

@mtnagel I own QuickBooks Pro 2019 on disc. I used QB Pro 2000 for 18 years. Having a disc means no annual subscription fees. It also means that I can install it on my new machine. I miss having software on discs.

I haven’t done it in forever, but you can convert the CD to ISO that you can run from your computer without needing the CD/drive in the future.

So they responded overnight and I got the $1. To be fair, the receipt just says, “KRO BRN FLK” so I’m not sure how they are expected to know that’s a cereal. I assume this is why Ibotta has bar code scanning. I see those offers are gone from my account so this will probably be of very limited usefulness unless they start adding more offers.

No kids so no care I cut the child proof zipper off, but I don’t have to worry about my cat eating them. But seriously, it’s still baffling as a non parent that parents can’t just put these things where kids can’t get them.

They added an offer for Sabra hummus, which we buy regularly so that’s something. There’s also the deal for $1 back on soda, which I rarely buy but I did the $8 Mug root beer offer so I got a 12 pack for $10 and will get $9 back. And I use a 5% cash back card, which will come off the full price so $0.50 back so really $0.50 for a 12 pack of soda.

@frugalpete You should get an immediate response after sending a picture of your receipt. And you should have gotten a response originally that said:

Your cash back will automatically go to your Venmo. Prefer PayPal? Reply with only the word PAYPAL.

@mtnagel Thank You!

No prob. You can always find which ones are on the same sale by clicking “Shop items”:

Mine came in a box with a couple plastic air pillow things so I don’t think they were crushed more than they should be but mine came with a rip in the bag. I also asked for a refund and got it.

FYI, if anyone has a Delta flight coming up, they have an offer where you pay for a year of Walmart + and you get $100 in Delta e-credits. I have the Amex offer so it would be like a free $50 (assuming you will use the Delta credits easily). I just figured I’d do it when I got home but you have to be on the Delta wifi to do it. I should have read the fine print while on the plane. Damn.

Hey, thanks a lot. I am flying to Tokyo next week on Delta. I will have to sign up for Walmart+ on the plane’s wi-fi. How do I find the offer once I get on their wi-fi?

Delta gives free wi-fi on their flights now, right? I hope that applies to international flights, too.

Yes everyone gets free wifi if you have a Skymiles account. Not sure on international, but I assume so as well. As for the deal, I totally missed it when I logged in, but my SO showed it to me. When you log in, I would just make sure you check the landing page. I did find this so at least this is what it looks like -https://www.reddit.com/r/delta/comments/1cmsirp/exclusive_onboard_deal_join_walmart_for_98year/

Can someone comment on the DD info, is that just another bank account info or do you have to have a direct deposit linked (payroll check, etc)

Pretty sure any deposit will work. I just transferred money from another bank account and it shows as pending with the amount I deposited.

$25 from streaming

I’m an idiot. After transferring $250 into my account to try to save 10% at Netflix, I see you can’t pay Netflix ahead, which I definitely knew but clearly forgot. Oh well. I’ll save 10% off one month anyway.

Can you buy a Netflix gift card on the net flix site? say $100 and apply it as a balance on your account?

Nope. They seeming don’t sell their own gift cards. Only third parties but then I wouldn’t get the cash back. That seems really dumb to me but I guess Netflix has a reason.

Didn’t you read the T&C?

This offer may not be published in any rebating magazine, website, or elsewhere without written permission of General Mills, Inc.

LOL.

There’s also this one for similar products - https://www.naturevalleytrymefree.com/Home/EntryForm. I already did this one a few weeks ago. I assume I can do both as my Kroger just finally got the products in the one you linked.

Rebate offer only good on one (1) carton of NATURE VALLEY CRISPY CREAMY WAFER STRAWBERRY 5ct, NATURE VALLEY CRISPY CREAMY WAFER VANILLA HONEY 5ct, NATURE VALLEY SOFT BAKED BREAKFAST BARS BLUEBERRY OAT 5ct, NATURE VALLEY SOFT BAKED BREAKFAST BARS BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP 5ct, OR NATURE VALLEY SOFT BAKED BREAKFAST BARS MAPLE NUT 5ct.

@ukedog said in 2024 Master Thread - Beer/Wine/Spirits Purchase Required Rebates:

Michelob ULTRA,

You can also combo with https://app.bybeapp.com/. Right now they have $7 of an 18 pack of Michelob ULTRA - https://app.bybeapp.com/offer/10482. I’ve combined KCB, BYBE and rebates many many times. So far I’ve gotten:

• 6x 12 packs of Seagram’s Escapes = $2 MM per 12 pack
• 2x 12 packs Smirnoff Ice = $2 MM per 12 pack
• 4x 8 packs of NUTRL = $1 MM per 8 pack
• 9x 25 oz cans of Kona Big Wave = ~$1 MM per can
• 9x 19.2 oz can Goose Island Bear Hug IPA = ~$1 MM per can
• 4x 24 oz cans Smirnoff Ice = ~$1 MM per can (should be able to do 16 more cans)
• 5x 24 oz can Twisted Tea = ~$0.20 MM per can
• 8x 500 ml Beatbox = $0.40/box
• 13x 4 packs of Cutwater canned cocktails = most were about $0.50 or $1/ 4 pack but these taste awesome so I’m okay paying a little for those

There were a few others, but so far I’ve spent $446 and got $489 back and have enough alcohol to last quite awhile

And I know you mentioned not wanting to deal with rebates, but they can definitely add more savings. Here’s a good site that lists both beer rebates and BYBE offers - https://yofreesamples.com/alcohol-rebates/

I think I still have about $12 left on a gift card, which I got a deal on. My go to is to wait for a $20 off $40 coupon (which they do all the time) and get a large eggplant parm for $23 to go. We get 6 portions out of it, so ~$4 each. Eggplant parm is one of those meals I’ll pay for someone else to make since it’s a pain to make it well and making fried foods at home is annoying.

@frugalpete said in ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINKS! Buy 2 Single Cans, get $5 Venmo/Paypal Rebate via Text Submit (See post for details):

Why me!? My last 3 submissions were initially denied because no rewards available or promotion ended. I contacted their support each time. The first time, was approved in a couple of days; second time, took a week for approval; third time took almost 3 weeks with three emails and one text to support before approval.

That’s crazy! I’ve done this many many times and have always been paid without issue. I just did it yesterday and was paid within a couple hours. Not sure why they hate you

@mistercheap said in Burger King APP: Today 8/8 only Get a Free Impossible Whopper with $3 spend:

Must say, really enjoyed my lunch. Got a large Onion Rings for $3.29 and the Imp. Whopper, plus at a certain BK I go to, my manager friend always gives me a free small cup to get a drink with.

Plus I’m getting double crowns on this account (birthday), so got about 65 crowns with my $3.29 spend

Sounds yummy! Unfortunately, the BK that was close to me closed down several years ago and now the closest one is about a 15 minute drive so I rarely go. I’m the blue dot in the middle:

@mrvietnam said in Like to eat at Panda Express? $38 at Panda Express for $25 wyb a $30 Panda Express gift card and a/ Panda Back to School offer for an $8 bonus card and $5 back when using Pay Pal checkout from Am Ex offers (YMMV) Bonus card offer expires 9/8/24:

Panda Express is getting expensive. I just went there last night. A 3 entree big plate after tax was.nearly $13. After my discount from this offer I got it down to the $8,xx range though. I would never eat there anymore without substantial discounts from offers such as this.

You can substitute Panda Express for any fast food restaurant or really any restaurant. It’s very rare that we eat out now unless it’s to hang out with friends or unless we get a very good deal like the Taco Bell Tuesday drops. It’s just not worth it anymore.

I then realized I didn’t get the text two weeks from my last redemption like I have been

Does that mean submitting a receipt without having received the reminder text is unlikely to work? I was expecting a reminder text today but didn’t get it.

Based on my one experience above, looks like you won’t get the rebate till after you get the text, which is stupid.

@mrvietnam said in Free Pop Chips (any local retailer) via text rebate from Aisle (exp unknown):

Are these Aisle rebate offers limited to one per person, one per phone number, or one per household? I bought two bags in back-to-back transactions but unfortunately the same time printed on the receipt; however, in one transaction I bought other things in addition to the Pop Chips. They refused the second receipt saying the receipt was already used.

I can always return a bag back to. One, but it is a small hassle I would like to avoid f possible. Maybe because the two receipts both were from the same store snd had the same day snd time the conputrr just automatically rejects one even though the items purchased were diffferent.

I’ve done many offers with both my phone and my SO’s phone and generally hasn’t been an issue except yesterday it was. I bought a few duplicate things at Whole Foods yesterday to do the offer on both our phones and I did it so fast at the self checkout that both receipts have the same date and time. Mine said it was approved (not paid yet) and my SO’s said it was a duplicate receipt. But mine was a different total (I bought one extra thing on my receipt). I can’t believe they only go by date and time and not total as an extra check.

Anyway, I responded “support” and then said to check again because the number of items bought and total was different (I didn’t mention how I knew that). I got a message back to reupload the receipt to their website and then I got a message back right away that it was approved (not paid yet).

So I think the moral of the story is to make sure the times are different to avoid this issue.

I submitted both the offer in the OP and the Snipp offer yesterday and got both this morning. Interestingly, the offer in the OP also uses Snipp, so kind of surprised they let you double dip but glad they did.

Vegan Spam, sounds like the name of a horror movie.

Tried it this weekend on an egg sandwich and it was okay covered in hot sauce. Never had real spam and no real desire for veg spam either so probably won’t buy again after I finish it.

Any one get credit for Trader Joe receipt purchases? I found one that has “HOL BELGIAN COOKIE TRIO” and it didn’t seem to trigger the $1 for packaged cookies. I wonder if it’s because all the TJ’s stuff is their own store brand vs. brand names like Keebler or Chips Ahoy.

I submitted an Aldi receipt for these. I knew it was kind of a stretch to call them a cookie. The receipt says, “Fudge Pepp Cremes” so I can see why they would have no clue what that was. It is pretty annoying how you seemingly don’t get any notification or message when receipts are rejected. If yours actually says “cookie” on the receipt, I’d send them a message. Pretty sure I had them credit me when after I messaged them about another offer.

@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.

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.
