Ebates Double Cash Back Today Only (starts at 1:00 pm EST)

As part of Cyber Monday, eBates is offering double cash back on all purchases made through their web portal into participating stores.

This is on top of savings you can get from the sales at stores themselves (as well as the PayPal cash back if the store is participating in that).

For example, if you went to Dell via eBates, normally you would get 2% back but today you would get a 4% cash back bonus. Then if you pay with PayPal, you would get 20% back through them! If you ordered a Zune 30GB brown MP3/Video player through Dell E&A on sale at $100 from $200 regular price, you would see the $100 charge in your checkout, but your eBates account would be boosted by $4 when the transaction processes and your PayPal balance would have $20 restored at the end of January. Meaning the net cost comes down to $76.

Today would be a great day to cash in your $20 popcorn certificate from Dale and Thomas that I wrote about a few weeks ago. Their eBates 11% cash back would be 22% on an order placed later today!

A nice way of combining sales offers. It's valid from 1:00 pm today till 2:59 am November 27th.

If you haven't registered for eBates yet, you can do so clicking this link. Your account would start with a $5 balance even before you've shopped for anything!

So starting in 15 minutes, why not let eBates reward you for your shopping savvy?
