If you do any amount of online shopping and you're not connecting to the store sites through a cash back or rebate site, you are leaving money on the table. This is a step-by-step tutorial on how to make the most amount of money with your online shopping. The best part is that this is a way to make some money on the online shopping you were going to do anyway! All it takes is a few minutes to sign up and a few extra clicks when you're doing your shopping.

Step One

Sign up for the major cash back and rebate sites. All of the sites listed in this article are FREE to use and many will give you money in your account just for signing up.

• Cashbaq ($5 signup bonus)
• Mr. Rebates ($5 signup bonus)
• Ebates ($5 signup bonus)
• Big Crumbs

Estimated time to complete: 5 minutes per site or 20 minutes total.

Now you are ready to take advantages of all the discounts and rebates you will find in Step Two.

Step Two

When you're ready to do any kind of online shopping, visit the Ev'reward website. At Ev'reward you can enter the store or site where you are planning on shopping at and you will see a list of results telling you which rebates site (like those listed above) is offering the biggest rebate or most cash back at that store. (You can also browse through different categories of stores if you're not sure where you will be shopping.)

For example, on a recent visit to Ev'reward I entered 'Target' as the store and the results showed the following:

• Big Crumbs - up to 6.3% back
• Cashbaq - up to 5% back
• Ebates and Mr. Rebates - 4% back

This helps you make a decision about which online shopping rebate site to use when shopping at Target. You can even click through to the site from the Ev'reward site.

Estimated time to complete: 30 seconds to enter the name of the store, size up the results and click through to the site.

Step Three

Once at the rebate site, click through to the store site. The rest of your shopping experience will be exactly the same as if you had gone to the store site directly. The only difference will be the rebate or cash back that you earn.

That's it! It's that simple. Just a few extra clicks and you can earn the maximum cash back and rebates rewards for all your online shopping.

Esimated time to complete: 30 seconds to click through to the store from the online rebate site.
