Yes! Yes and Yes again! So lets start out with the nitty gritty. There are 3 or 4 major sites that will give you easy cash back and I will go through the positives and negatives here. Some have better money back rates. Some have a cash reward for referring a friend to them and some do not. This website is my way of making sense of it all and making it quicker to get the most back in the shortest amount of time. Here are the best sites for getting cash back rebates.

Mr Rebates is the one that I use the most because it seems they have the most selection of stores, been in business since 2002 and has an "A" rating with the better business bureau. Here are some reasons why:
1. Better Cash Back percentage on my favorite stores
2. Never had a problem with getting my rebates credited to my account and you can check your rebate status anytime
3. 5 dollar instant sign up bonus.
4. They give you a referal bonus of 20% (of your friends rebate) on all your friends that you sign up. Best part is that it doesnt deduct from your friends rebate. Just a thank you for the referral.
5. They now have paypal, so you can get your rebates faster.
So the way it works is that all you have to do is sign up for an account and before you go to ebay or an site online come to Mr Rebates first
and click the link. Thats pretty much it. They handle the rebate fullfillment by putting your money into an account and it is stored in pending rebates for about 90 days. (They have to make sure that you dont return the product) then it goes
into available rebates. At that time you can go and send it to your paypal account or have a check sent to you directly your available rebate amount is over $10.

Ebates has been around the longest of the companies on my list. Been on the block since 1998 and a good solid company. The reason they are number two on my
list is because certain stores have less of a percentage back as compared to Mr Rebates . They have an easy to use system to check your rebate status and rebate fullfillment is almost automatic. Here are a few good reasons to use them.
1. Large selection of stores to choose from.
2. Customer Service is excellent. One time I had an issue and they kept with and got me my rebate!
3. 5 dollar instant sign up bonus for you and your friend.
4. They have paypal, so you can get your rebates faster.
5. If you have a big friend base, if enough sign up and make a qualifying purchase, they will give you up to $4500
So its pretty similar just sign up for an account and search
for your online retailer in their list. Click the link and purchase your
product from the retailer. Thats pretty much it. They pay it differently though. Depending on when you make your purchase they have a specific date that they send the rebate cash back. Please see below.

More Rebates to my knowledge has not been around that long. It is a ValueClick brand site. So you will have the comfort of being with a big company. They dont have the same size of merchants on their site
but they do have a couple points to look at:
1. 6 dollar instant sign up bonus.
2. To get the bonus you must have someone sign up and not only make a purchase, but make enough purchases to get to 25 in approved rebates.
That last one for me was a kind of red flag as it is no gaurantee that your friends will stay with this program when there are others that seem to get their money to them quicker

A better question would be where you couldnt get a rebate. There are over 1200 stores that give you a rebate! The best thing is you just click over to Mr Rebates, ebates, More Rebates or Cash Back Outlet first and click the store that you
want to shop at. It opens up a ticket and sends you to the site your
shopping at and thats it! Here are a few stores that you might recognize.
