"DO IT FOR THE BUDGET"
Over the last several years I have found many ways to save money while purchasing everything from kicks on release day to gas and groceries. With everything rising in prices these days, who does not want to save a little extra money? Follow these simple steps to purchase what you are already going to buy, while keeping a little extra dough in your pocket.
1. EBATES
Ebates is a cash back website that gives you variable percentages of cash back with purchases when visiting their website to navigate to the site that you want to purchase from. They also provide deals and promo codes that are available for each website. I highly recommend adding the ebates chrome extension to your browser as well to make sure that you never miss a chance for extra cash back.

*Terms and conditions for each site's cashback exclusions can be found on ebates.com
2. Raise
Raise is a website that can be used to buy and sell gift cards. I utilize this site to purchase gift cards that are often discounted several percent. Its awesome because you can use ebates to gain a cash back percentage on your Raise gift card purchase. You can then utilize your discounted gift cards with your favorite retailer while also combining with other discounts or promo codes. In addition to all of this savings you can go through ebates when placing your order with the retailer of purchase for another percentage of cash back.
