I think over the years, I have received checks for over $700. Yes, $700. In fact I just got my "big fat check" yesterday for last quarter. $57.90.
You can't beat that with a stick.
If you aren't signed up, sign up. If you sign up this month, you get $10.
Just go to Ebates.com and sign up.
It's been around that long?? I shop online all the time! I'm sick to think of how much money I could have had by now. - 146
