I use Receipt Hog and Receipt Pal. Are there others like it that are just as easy?

[MichelleB]

Title pretty much says it all. I am about easy on the receipt thing even if it takes a bit to add up. Anyone know of another program like the 2 mentioned?

 

[Frwinkley]

Can you explain these 2 programs?

 

[MichelleB]

You snap pics of your receipts and upload them to receive points. Receipt Pal lets you enter 12 receipts a week for a credit of 300 points and Receipt Hog gives you coins for grocery type receipts and sweepstakes entries for things like JCPenney, etc. They are both SLOW earners but require very little work on my part so that's ok with me.

I don't know how you define easy, but I earn a lot of rebates on Ibotta ($100 in 7 months). I think it's very easy, but not quite as easy as Receipt Hog. As far as easy, the WalMart Savings app wins.

Have you tried Shopkick? You earn points when you enter stores and if you scan certain products you also earn points. Super easy!

How does the WalMart Savings app work, if you don't mind me asking? Thanks!

After you shop at WalMart you open the app and use their Savings Catcher to scan the bar code or the QR code at the bottom of the receipt. It takes about 15 seconds from start to finish. Then WalMart searches all the competitors in your area. If you have bought an item at WalMart and it's on sale somewhere else for a lower price, WalMart refunds you the difference.
For example on my last trip to WalMart I bought a multi-pack of Kleenex for $4.23. Evidently it was on sale at Kmart for $3.99 so WalMart refunded me .24 cents.
It's not good on all items (like Good Value brand)
I don't make a lot of money on it because I'm not a big WalMart shopper but I could see where folks who are could save a lot more. And it is so easy to use.

ibotta - you add "deals" to your account by watching a video or answering a couple of questions. Then you upload your receipt after you purchase the featured product to claim your reward. Not unusual to offer a rebate for staples like milk.

checkout51 - similar to ibotta without having to add most deals to your account. Often includes cashback for purchase of a produce item. Upload your receipts for redemption.

Savingstar - "claim" an offer to add it to your account. Add your loyalty card to your account. Upload receipts for stores that don't have loyalty programs (like Walmart or Target). Usually offer one "free" item on weekends (100% cashback) and have one "healthy offer" per week that is usually good for cash back on a produce item.

What's nice about these programs is that they are not mutualy exclusive like other rewards programs. If they all offer a rebate on the same item, you can get rewarded by each of them!

 

[DisneyPanthersFan]

Narnia_girl, thank you so much for the explanation! It does sound simple (which I love!). I've been thinking recently about doing more shopping at WalMart, so this could work out quite nicely!

Marionnette, thanks for explaining each program. I like that they're not mutually exclusive - thank you for pointing that out!

I use Find & Save

I really like it because they have a large range of stores you can earn cash back for taking pictures of your receipts, restaurants too.

Most of the time it lets you use more than one receipt to meet the purchase requirement too.

Examples
1% back at Kroger for over $15 purchase
2% back at Whole Foods purchases over $100
1% back at Target purchases over $1
2% back at CVS purchases over $10
2% back at Disney Store for purchases over $25
3% back at Nordstrom for purchases over $50
1% back at Costco for purchases over $50
$1 back for $20 purchase at Family Dollar
3% back at Save-A-Lot for over $65 in purchases
$2 back at bath and body works for purchase over $15
$1 back at ALDI for a $10 purchase
1% back at Walmart for purchases over $10

I use Ibotta and the Walmart app. Seem to do pretty good with Ibotta. Think I am going to look into Find & Save.

I primarily do my grocery shopping at Kroger. I looked at the Find & Save website and don't see Kroger listed. Am I missing them?

Different stores pop up.

A lot of times actually going to the store or driving by a shopping center triggers more offers to pop up up on the app.

 

[cinnamon-sugah]

In addition to some of the others mentioned, I also use MobiSave (offers must be added BEFORE purchasing but still free money), Snap, Shopmium, and Shrink. All four of these have lower numbers of offers than the others mentioned so far but hey, it's all free money!

I've been using Find&Save for MAX three months and have cashed out $86 so far. It's great! There were a ton of great deals for Black Friday. Easy moneymaker and pays cash with no cut off the top.

I've been using Receipt Hog, Ibotta, and Shopkick for a little while now, and have downloaded Mobisave but haven't redeemed anything on there yet.

I really like mPlus Rewards (used to be called mPoints). There are a lot of apps that can earn mPoints but I mainly use the mPlaces app. You get points for checking in to locations and clicking on prize boxes, and can also get bonuses for tweeting, watching videos, doing short surveys, etc. I work in Manhattan so I can get the max daily check-ins at high point value locations while I'm sitting at my desk. (You don't have to be right in front of a location to check in, which is a huge bonus.) I'll also sometimes walk around doing Shopkick check-ins but that takes a little more effort since you have to be right at the entrance of the store before the app recognizes it and let's you check in.

Thank you all for the info on additional apps! I'm going to try some of them out. I don't have a whole lot of time to devote to rewards apps so I love any that give quick/easy points!

 

[MichelleB]

Does find & save credit your purchase after the deal ends? I went to the grocery yesterday and submitted my receipts. The deal ends today so I'm wondering if it will post after that.

Yes, but it does take several days before it credits. I think they send you an e-mail when it does.

 

[Narnia_girl]

Is anyone using Qriket? I just heard about this app and am curious if it's worth the time.

 

[Ava]

I redeemed my first rebates from MobiSave today, and the money was deposited into my PayPal account pretty much instantly. Love that!

I also downloaded Snap, Shopmium, and Shrink. Shrink seems a little confusing with the points and then separate rebates but it offers rebates on a few brands that we buy so I'll give it a shot.

I haven't been able to get any rebates on Find & Save yet but have only had it a short time. I also tried Saving Star but am having trouble getting my loyalty cards to link. It says the cards are already linked to another account. Maybe my wife had one at some point, I'll have to ask her. Otherwise I'm stumped by that error.
