Ibotta





Have you heard about it?  Before you continue reading, please know that you must have a smartphone to participate.

I pride myself on being "in the know"....whether it's the newest car (I saw the new Corvette on the road this weekend and it was FABULOUS), newest food/health craze and newest apps; especially when they are free or involve saving extra money.

Ibotta has been out a while, but I thought I would share some of the details for you.  If you are a rebate person, you will be really interested in this.  It is similiar, but electronic and much easier.

First of all, you need to download the app: Ibotta

  • Before going shopping, select your offers from Ibotta.
  • Go Shopping.....purchase your chosen products at any of the major retailers that Ibotta supports (see below).
  • Take a photo of your receipt. They verify your purchases and credit your account right away.
  • Get your cash loaded onto your PayPal account or donated to any school in America.
Ibotta works at 14 retailers including these stores in our area: Target, Walmart, Harris Teeter, CVS, Walgreens.

You can increase the amount of your offer by doing simple activities like taking a poll, liking the company on Facebook or reading a recipe.

Like Savingstar.com discounts, the money does not come off at the register. It is deposited into your Paypal account. You will need a Paypal account to get the money. If you prefer, you can also donate the money to a school of your choice.

The best part is that you can use the ibotta savings in conjunction with manufacturers coupons and savingstar.com e-coupons.

Have fun saving money!
