We are gearing up for the holiday season over here at This Beautiful Frugal Life and online shopping is a HUGE part of how we save money. I never shop anywhere online without first going through a cash-back site and the only site I use now is Ebates.
All you do is head to Ebates first, search for the site you are going to be shopping at and click through to that site. Ebates automatically creates a tracking number associated with your account and you will receive a percent cash back on your purchase. If you are going to be shopping online anyway, there is no reason you shouldn’t be using a great site like Ebates.
The reason they are the only site I use is because they have a huge selection of sites, high percentage cash back (and very competitive with other sites), great tracking and communication and amazing customer service. My cash back generally posts very quickly and my cash-back checks have always arrived right on time.
Throughout the holiday season (and honestly, most of the year), they offer some great double cash-back promotions. As I type this, they are offering 20% cash back on your Snapfish purchase, 10% cash back at The Body Shop, 8% cash back at North Face and much, much more.
Ebates has VERY generously offered one lucky TBFL reader a $100 Target gift card to help kick off their holiday shopping.

I do most of my Christmas shopping in the stores- except for my Hubby… he is pretty picky- I have to find most of his stuff online. Excited, though that Target is matching other stores prices for the holiday season! WOOHOO! 
Gifts I am looking for… A new espresso machine. The one my kids got me for mothers day 9 yrs ago needs an update.

First on our Christmas List are my Kid’s gifts: Tablets, video games, Innotabs, Cameras, Gift cards, you name it, we have nine children and they all are going for the big stuff. I would like to get something special for my hubby, I still haven’t figure out what but I want something nice for Him and I am still hoping Santa pays me a visit and gives me a new computer, the one I have needs to go into retirement, the poor thing has keys that don’t work and turns off on me whenever it wants to. And of course, there is the gifts for the rest of the family, I already have some of those with all the great deals we’ve found so far. I am planning on doing most of my shopping online, Little ones and shopping during the Holidays just don’t go together. I rather avoid all the drama and shop from the comfort of my home.
