Finding Money - Ibotta

Ibotta is a great smartphone app to help you save even more on your grocery bill.




How Ibotta works is you download the app to your smartphone.  

When you open the app, you will see different categories.  Grocery, Apparel, Restaurant, Pet, etc.  I usually only use the Grocery one, only because we currently have no pets, rarely go out to eat, etc.  

Click on Grocery and chose your favorite store.  Most stores all have the same offers in the, but Target for example has several "exclusives" where you can only receive a cash rebate if you buy that particular product at Target.  

Once you click on your store, many offers will pop up.  Each product offer requires 1-2 steps, from answering one questions, to watching a quick video on the product (a commercial).  Each step gives you an amount to earn for a specific product after you complete the step.  

For example, milk is usually a product with a cash back rebate.  Click on the picture of the milk carton.  Under the picture will be a few options to earn 25c towards a milk purchase.  Mine personally says "How to" which will give me a little pointer on using Ibotta.  The next option I have is to earn 25c for "Take a Poll" where I'm asked a quick question.  

Now, I head to the store, buy my milk, and when you get home, open the Ibotta app and click the "Redeem" icon on the bottom of the screen, and follow the steps for taking a picture of your receipt and UPC symbol.  

When you first sign up for Ibotta, you can earn a $2 bonus after you redeem your first offer!  What are you waiting for?  Then once you are signed up, get your friends on board with your referral link so YOU can earn $5 after they redeem their first offer!  Feel free to use any of my referral links in this post and help me earn $5! 

You can also use Ibotta in addition to any coupons you clip, as well as many other shopping apps!  Happy Shopping!
