Mr. Rebates $5 Sign Up Bonus
Next up in online shopping cash back programs for Free Money Friday: Mr. Rebates! (So far, we have Upromise, MyPoints, Big Crumbs, Cashbaq, and Ebates.)
Mr. Rebates
Mr. Rebates has over 1000 stores including: Dell, Office Depot, Old Navy, Macy’s, and Best Buy. The cash back rewards range from 1% - 30% depending on the store.
How it Works
$5 Sign up Bonus. Mr. Rebates will give you a $5 registration bonus just for signing up.
Payments. You will need a minimum of $10 to cash out. They send the money via check or Paypal.
Referrals. You can refer your friends and family and Mr. Rebates will give you 20% of the cash back that your friends earn. (It doesn’t cost them any of their cash back.)
Tips and Tricks
Increased holiday payouts. During the holiday shopping season, they are increasing payouts at various stores. After you sign up, look for the Christmas promotion.
Increased sign up bonuses. If you refer a friend and they sign up the same day that they get the email, they’ll get a $7.50 bonus instead of $5. It’s the perfect plan to sign up a spouse!
Newsletter. They do send you an email to opt into their weekly newsletter, but I just ignored it and haven’t received it since.
We just used Mr. Rebates last week for a purchase at Sears. Using ev’reward we determined it was the highest cash back when you throw in the bonus!
