My Recent Cash Outs from Cash Back Apps

Abby H.
I’m not earning Benjamins, but every little bit helps.

I’ve been meaning to post this for a few weeks, but I have been recovering from surgery, and trying to take the kids on short adventures.

You guys know how much I love a good cashback app, and here are some of my recent cashouts, and how I’m coming on reaching the payouts on a few more apps.

 

Cashback apps where I have almost reached the threshold for payout: 

  • Ibotta: right now I’m at $23.75
  • Drop: they ran out of gift certificates/rewards so I will try again on Thursday. They release a limited number of each week. Right now I have enough points to cash out $25 worth of rewards. It has taken me almost 2 years. I count this is one of my very passive apps to use. 

If you are interested in learning more about the cashback apps, I use, check out my cashback app page here. Many of the apps I use are affiliate-linked, so when you sign up for them, you will receive a bonus for first-time use, and I will also receive a small bonus. Think about it as buying me a Slurpee, or buying my kids a donut. 

For more information about the use of Affiliate links, check out my disclosure page.

It’s the first week after my surgery and we have been having all sorts of adventures! We went to Lego Building Club at the La Mesa Library, the kids swam several times at our community pool (I sat on the pool deck and took pics), we hung out with friends, and I took a lot of naps.

We’re heading over to the Lakeside library today. With Independence Day next week, I’m sure there will be no shortage of adventures!

Great Deal on General Mills Cereals at CVS!

Abby H.

This deal was in effect last week too, and I took advantage of it. Now through 4/27, you can score selected sizes and varieties of General Mills cereal at CVS for just $1.99 each!

And the deal gets better-

There is a $1.00/2 coupon you can load to your CVS card!

There is also a $1.00/2 rebate available on Ibotta and Shopminium (you cannot combine them).

Here is how I did the deal, and I used the self-checkout.

Transaction 1:

Buy two General Mills Cereals, $1.99/each $3.98
Use $1/2 coupon on card
Pay out of pocket (or roll CVS extra care bucks): $2.98
Redeem the Ibotta Rebate for $1/2
Final Out of pocket: $1.98/2 or .99/each

Transaction 2:
Buy two General Mills Cereals, $1.99/each $3.98
Pay out of pocket (or roll CVS extra care bucks): $3.98
Redeem Shopminium Rebate for $1/2
Final Out of pocket: $2.98/2 or $1.49/each

That’s 4 boxes of cereal for $1.24/each. For reference, the same-sized box of Reeces Puffs cereal I bought at CVS is $4.39 at Target.

Don’t forget to add your receipts to Mypoints/Swagbucks, Fetch (They frequently have bonus offers for General Mills Products), Receipt Hog, Receipt Pal, and Receipt jar for extra points/cash back.

If you are new to some of these apps, check out my Save with Smartphones page here. Some of these apps have bonus points when you sign up with my referral code (and I earn some points too!).

Save $$ on Prescriptions with SingleCare!

Next time you fill a prescription, tell your pharmacist you have a SingleCare coupon card, and ask them to fill and process your prescription with it. They’ll input the magic numbers and apply your savings.

Black Friday $5 CollectionI’m not usually a Black Friday shopping person, but this $5 sale at Cents of Style is pretty good. I love their shirts, so I checked out their sale offerings, and they got some cute shirts!

My absolute favorite item that’s on sale for $5.00 is this super cute tote bag.

With a 13″ x 14.5″ body and  9″ Handle Drop, it’s great for all of my stuff for work- My Planner, lunch box (yes, I have one), bottle of water.
