My Favorite Coupon/Rebate App

Ibotta is hands down my favorite coupon/rebate app for your phone.

Use my referral link to get an additional $10 when you redeem your first rebate.

Ibotta is an app that provides rebates for purchases ranging from diapers to groceries to alcohol. It offers a much larger variety of items than other rebate/coupon apps I use, and you get the money back on your purchases almost instantly. Often times they even have "free" items. For example- just recently there was a Tresemme rebate to get back $4.75, on a product that is around $4.94 in stores. Many sites or other coupon apps had a $1.00 off coupon you could also use! That means you could get paid for some of these items. The same happened for Degree and Axe products not too long ago.

They also occasionally offer "any brand" items like bread, milk, eggs, fruit etc. This means you can buy any brand (even the cheapest generic brands) and get money back.

What makes this app hands down the best app is not only the variety of items, but the ability to stack coupons on top of your rebates or offers in other apps. Certain apps, like Checkout 51, now state on their offers that you can't pair up coupons AND get the offer. Ibotta lets you use manufacturer coupons in the store, and you can still redeem rebates for that same product in their app. This leads to better deals and money makers.

The other cool feature is that you can team up with your friends to try to earn bonuses by redeeming a certain amount of rebates and a certain amount of money each month. There are also bonuses you can earn yourself - such as buying certain items or redeeming a certain amount of rebates over a weekend.

The above picture shows all of the gift cards you can get with the money you earn on Ibotta. You can also redeem to Paypal or Venmo when you reach $20. 

As previously mentioned, you typically get your money almost instantly. If you shop at Walmart, for example, all you have to do is scan the QR code or your receipt, and I've never had to wait more than 4 minutes for it to be approved with the money added to my account. Cash outs are also received pretty quickly. 

So join Ibotta and use it on top of your couponing to save even more money!

Earn $25 a Month with This App

I like earning money online or with my smartphone or tablet. I like it even more when I can passively earn.

Media Insiders Panel is a research initiative that looks at how consumers use technology such as sharing, downloading, viewing etc. and shares that information with clients. If you're at least 13 years old you can join by downloading their app to your smartphone or tablet. The  more devices you connect to, the more you will earn. You can also download their PC-Connect feature to your computer or laptop. Just that alone will earn you rewards without you having to do anything. On top of that - they may send you surveys for points (usually around 100-300 points which is equivalent to $1-$3). They recently introduced a tv survey that earns you 50 points every time. If they detect you were watching a particular show, they'll send you a notification on your smartphone or tablet that you have a tv survey. All they ask is how you watched that particular show (online, Netflix, Hulu etc). One question for 50 cents.

This is my number 1 favorite passive money earner at the moment. I always participate in the surveys and tv surveys to earn even more points. I cash out through PayPal, but there are so many different rewards options for other gift cards or physical items.

Here's proof of some of my earnings:

Every 2,500 point redemption I've made recently was for $25 through Paypal. The rewards come pretty quickly most of the time. I believe I received my last requested payout less than a week after I redeemed my points.

As you can see I earn on average $25/month, sometimes $50/month especially now that I've been getting those new tv surveys.

Make Easy Money with 1Q!

Looking for ways to make passive, quick, easy money? Sign up for 1Q. They'll send a quick and easy survey to your phone via text and all you have to do is reply back with your answer (usually just selecting A, B, C, or D etc.) As soon as you do within a timeframe, they'll IMMEDIATELY send $1.00 to your paypal account.

Example? Just this past weekend they sent out a survey during the superbowl, asking a question related to the superbowl. I've also had questions about my personal preferences on things like products or activities.

The downside? There's not a whole lot of questions - you may get one every week or so. However, it takes less than a minute when you do receive a survey and you immediately get $1.00!! Definitely great as an extra money maker.
