Rebates

MAIL-IN-REBATES

MIR (or mail-in-rebates) can be found on different product websites, on products themselves, or sometimes on hangtags in stores. These are not as predominant as they use to be, but can be an easy way to get money back on products you purchase. 

Most rebates are now mobile friendly and are submitted thru different apps.

IBOTTA

ibottaThe FREE ibotta app, a fun & easy way to earn extra money while shopping at Target, Walgreens, CVS, Publix and other retailers and is available for iPhone,iPad and Android users! You can go HERE to download this FREE app and once you’re registered, just tap on the offer you are interested in and the next screen will give you choices to earn money. The more offers you choose, the more cash back you’ll earn. Next, go shopping and once you’ve made your purchase, take a photo of your receipt and upload.

Earnings can be transferred securely to your Paypal account or donated to any school in America. Once your receipt is uploaded, ibotta will verify your purchase(s) and notify you anywhere from 2 – 24 hours that your credit is available. Ibotta only requires a $5 minimum balance to start redeeming your earnings, and as you redeem offers, your shelves will be restocked with new offers. There is no limit to how many offers you can redeem. For complete details on how this great program works, you can check out my post HERE.

And, one of the really nice things about the ibotta app is there are “any brand” offers for savings on items like bread, cereal, produce and more! Plus they sometimes offer bonuses for redeeming multiple offers to make for even bigger savings.

FETCH REWARDS

fetch-rewards

One of the easiest apps out there is called Fetch Rewards, and you can easily start earning rewards right away. This app rewards you based on a point system (1,000 points essentially equals $1). You can download the app at the itunes or Google Play stores and sign up in just a couple of minutes and be sure and enter the code VP5JJ BEFORE submitting your receipt to earn 2,000 points.

You earn points just for scanning any receipt from any  supermarket or drug store. Not only are you rewarded for every single receipt you scan, but there are also opportunities to earn additional points for purchasing specific brands).  You can scan up to 14 receipts in a one-week period, and your receipts can be up to 14 days old.

The brands tab will list MANY, MANY brands that qualify for extra point earnings when you purchase them. The Special Offers Tab will display bigger earning opportunities for points when you buy specific items.

While you cannot trade your points for cash, you can trade your points in for tons of other things like gift cards & more and you can redeem for rewards with as little as 3,000 points, including Target Gift Cards.

  1. HI COnnie- yes- they changed the terms without any info sent. We have been promoting a certain way because it was never in the terms – but now – yes they say you cannot use with a coupon.

  2. I was looking for the post about Shopmium from a few days ago. You must have pulled it as so many were having trouble with it. As far as I can tell, Shopmium now does NOT allow a coupon with any of their offers(small print under the offer). I found this out after purchasing 7 of the Playtex pads boxes. I did have coupons, some of them should have had the amount reduced, and 5 of them should have given the full $3, because they were the 6.99 size.
    They sent back that they were all denied, with a link to what was supposed to talk about coupons used, but it didn’t go there.
    I found on the site under faqs, coupons will result in your total being reduced possibly (so that had not been updated yet).
    So, I have an email into them with the faq page sited. Will see if they will reimburse for those, since they have not imformed people properly.

  3. hello, how come you don’t have the link for Lysol Rebate? I got it from Sunday paper but i lost it and i really want to get it by printing. Please help> Thanks.

  4. There’s a rebate out for P&G beauty products. Buy 50$ get a 15$ prepaid card by mail.

  5. i have been sharing with my friends and famiies. Tx for spending time to do all of these for us.

  6. Starbucks $5 e-gift card offer includes Tazo teas but website didn’t recognize the upcs so I called Starbucks and she added $5 to my registered gift card

  7. Hi! Just got my cascade prepaid $5 card today in mail 😀 thanks for your site and all the great coupon and rebate info!

  8. Hi, so I tried to click on the link for the $10 MIR on the Smart Have products (i.e. the Quilted Northern) and it kept bringing up a page that said error. what am I doing wrong?

  9. Exergen baby thermometer on sale at target for $26. Buy 2 and ship to store. Get $10 off instantly. 0n exergen website there are 2 $10 rebates per item. So after savings and rebate, it’s like paying 6 bucks

  10. I love target and the wonderful coupons that they offer. All their employees are very nice too.

  11. The allergy-related product rebate ended early due to the response volume. No longer available. : (

  12. Hello, in the Pfizer rebate $6, do you know if they will accept 2 receipts for 3 items or do all 3 need to be in just one receipt? I tried looking for that information in the rebate form but cannot find anything specific. Thanks.

  13. Small boxes of Quantum Finish Powerball have little rebate tab’s on the boxes. You get what you paid back in the rebate, so freebie!

  14. This is helpful…I have received several rebates because of you…Thanks so much.

  15. On the proctor and gamble rebate are multiple receipts acceptable or does everything have to be on one?

  16. I’m having trouble locating the Loreal $10 off $30 rebate form. I’ve searched the site (via your link) and can’t seem to find it anywhere! Help please 🙂

  17. i just went to print the hasbro rebate, you have it stated that it was good through 12/31 so when my target gave me a rain check for the games they were out of last week i bought them on the 27th, printed out the rebate form and it was over on the 25th.

  18. Thank you for keeping us up on all the good deals. It feels good when you can save money. Its nice to have people like you who help people like me do that.

  19. seventeen.com/pantene

    buy $10 in Pantene at Target, get a $5 target gc. the person filing has to be in between 18-24.

  20. @Lauryn, it’s $25 before coupons. You don’t have to circle the coupons you used, just the before coupon price of the items you bought.

  21. I have never done a rebate before. When you circle the receipts for the products do you go by the price you paid after coupons? So for the P&G 5 off 25 you would need to spend 25 after coupons.

  22. @Priscilla- yes you can use gift cards you earn in one transaction to pay for the next and still get the gift card. the only thing you can’t do is use a gift card in the same transaction you earned it in. hth

  23. If I do the gillette/venus deal and get my $5 dollar gift card. Can I use that same gift card on the olay deal which also gives a $5 gift card?

  24. I just picked up Endust, the large can, with a free after rebate sticker attached. Target in Baton Rouge, La. / Millerville. If you have an email address I can send it to I took a photo of it.

  25. hey kathy- I can’t seem to find it on their site. I thought there was one too- but when I looked i didn’t see it?

  26. Hi Kerry,
    There is a rebate for soda stream at sodastreamusa.com for $20.00 off.

  27. I saw a Jergens rebate today somewhere but now I can’t find it. Has anyone run across it? Thanks for sharing.

  28. I found a great 20$ rebate on Recyclebank. It cost 100 points. I recently purchased a Soda Stream at Target when it was on sale for 89.99 with a 10$ gift card back. I also had a 10$ off coupon and used my red card. Now a 20$ rebate on top of that is great. Very happy with the Soda Stream too!

  29. There’s also a Neutrogena rebate going on right now. Buy $30 worth of products and get a $10 rebate, and it runs May 6, 2012, through June 6, 2012. There are certain restrictions, though, so check it out carefully. I know the Target in my area is discounting several of the Neutrogena Naturals line so you could get even more for your money!

  30. I got my $3 Lysol rebate a few days ago. I think my Neosporin check amount was what I paid using the coupon ($8.49) and NOT the purchase price circled. Free is still better than paying for it. I am going to get a new toothbrush and use the $10 rebate.

  31. I got my neosporin rebate check in the mail today 🙂 Thanks so much for sharing that deal!

  32. I hope this is not a dumb question, but if I run out of room to write in the UPC numbers on the P&G form, should I print out a second form for the other numbers? Or should I write in the numbers underneath the last one? I just don’t want to do it wrong and have them reject my form. Thanks for the help!

  33. Thanks so much for having this rebate tab on your website. It’s a lifesaver. I have a subscription to All You and I didn’t even realize there was a Lysol No-Touch Rebate form in there until I read this page. Even sadder is that I had already purchased two dispensers so I was already eligible for the rebate and didn’t even realize it. Now I have $3 on the way back to me. Yippee! Thanks so much! 🙂

  34. For those wanting to do the neosporin essentials trial pack refund offer, I found these at target Today’s for $11.94. Some other stores I understand have them for $12.99.

  35. Has anyone received their Cars2/Kimberly Clark rebate or their Cars 2/Johnson & Johson rebate yet? I submitted both of mine ages ago and still haven’t gotten anything back.

  36. Quick question – I bought the Stomp N Go, but after I got home, I realized that the cover is Woolite Stomp N Go and not the Bissell. Bissell is written on the back of the box as distributer/contact. I was wondering if anyone else has run into this and if you got your rebate for it?

  37. Help… Can I do both rebates for the woolite ( pet and oxy) they are 2 different rebates but it is the same house…please let me know..thanks

  38. WOW! I’ve been checking out your site for AGES and just noticed the rebates tab! lol, I’ll definitely be using some of these! Thanks so much for all you do!! =)

  39. Thanks for having one place to look at numerous rebates – it sure does save time – and of coarse money in the long run 🙂

  40. Hi Kerry! I get inserts mailed to me from some family in California (yeah – lucky me! lol) and just wanted you to know that there was a MIR for Cars 2 on DVD or Blu-Ray from Rayovac. It’s for $5 with the purchase of any AA/AAA-10, C/D-4, or 9V-2 packs (or larger). There was also a $1/2 Q with it. Since my family sends it to me every couple of weeks, I’m not sure what insert it was in, but it had to be within the last few weeks. The great thing is that Rayovac accepts the UPC label from the Blu-Ray…which I gather means that one can do all three MIR’s because Kimberly-Clark accepts photocopies and the Proof-of-Purchase as does the J&J. I’m gonna do it! Do you want me to scan the rebate and email it to you?

  41. THere are 2 great CARS 2 Rebates out – 1) for 10$ wyb $20 kimberly clark items and 2) J&J bandaids, etc…. movie is due out 11/1 🙂 yea

  42. Can I submit the $5 filtrete AND the $6 filtrete rebate? They are both for the same product. Thanks

  43. I found on the package a rebate for gerber yogurt blends snack with whole grains 4 pack. This is the only thing i don’t have to fight with my daughter to get her to eat she loves it. you need a receipt between 9/1/11 and 5/31/12 with a proof of purchase circled and 1 upc from a gerber yogurt blend snack with whole grains 4 pack. must be mailed by 5/31/12.
    mailed to: Gerber yogurt blends snack with whole grains/try me free program
    po box 9671
    grand rapids, mn 55745-9671

  44. the Kelloggs Fiber plus rebate link is not connecting properly, there is no rebate connected with that link that I can find?

  45. Doing the Armor All MIR?? Keep your eyes peeled for the bright green peelies attached to the Armor All products right now. The stats are identical but the peelie MIR rebate amount is up to $9.99.

  46. “Savings for Someone Special” Purchase $30 worth of P&G products in one transaction & receive $10 prepaid card by mail 4/24/11-6/30/11—so hurry! I called and Publix is participating. Postmarked by 7/7/11 with products circled on receipt and UPC #’s on index card with your name and address. Apparently they didn’t supply all stores with official form. http://www.therebatecenter.com/pg (877-869-6599)

  47. Hello, I would love to have the BAYER ADVANCED ASPIRIN UP TO $3 MIR x9/30 and at the top of this page it mentions that it is in the SS 6/12/11 insert. I have 3 inserts and none of them have this MIR in them. I’m in Atlanta so do you think the inserts are regional?

  48. Kerry – do you know if Target is participating in the new P&G “Savings for Someone Special” rebate ($10 back off $30)? I called the 1-800-#, and the operator “wasn’t allowed to say” – lol. Thanks!

  49. Usually with the rebates they send you the price you paid before any coupons or discounts!!

  50. Hi I had a question regarding the Physician Formula i purchased at Target. There is a mail in rebate for the eyeliner. I had also purchased 2other PF items that had a B1G1 peelie on it, which instead took off the full amount on my rebate item. Should I even send out for a rebate since my receipt shows it was free? I’m worried that if I send it out they will just reject it. =T

  51. Found a decent deal on First Response Pregnancy Tests the other day… $2 Target Q + $2 MQ on a 2 pack… There’s a B1G1 MIR form in the box as well as a $2 MQ. So you should be able to get $4 off on each 2 pack… bringing the price down to around $4 each. I’m not sure if they’ll send back the full price for the rebate, because the receipt shows the price after Target Q is applied, but still a decent deal. $2 for 4 tests!

  52. @ Crystal and Linda I saw the try me free offer on the back of box from each cereal box. If it helps

  53. Theres a $20.00 rebate when you purchase $40.00 qualifying Farberware cookware from Target.com…..FYI

  54. Same thing for me Crystal, don’t see any rebate form for any Kellogg products. Does anyone know if this was a “while supplies last” kind of thing or are we just missing where the rebate form is located? Thanks!

  55. Hi. I don’t see the Kellog’s Try me Free rebate for Crunchy Nut Cereal on here, but i have a question. Are these usually limited to one free product per household? Or could I go out and buy 5 boxes and submit them all at the same time and get a check for 5 free boxes?

    Thanks for your help!

  56. Hey Alicia,
    if you have enough for both rebates independant of one another than yes absolutely. while they are both from P&G you can still get both rebates. be sure to get them mailed by the correct date which is usually noted on the form. hth 🙂

  57. Hi Kerry It’s me Alicia again, i have another question. I hope I’m not to much of a bother. well i qualify for the P&G “Get Caught Looking Beautiful” Rebate but i also qualify for the P&G EVERYDAY SAVER COUPON BOOKLET REBATE. Can i send in for both at my Address? each are on separate receipts.

  58. does anyone know if you ordered diapers off amazon and had the invoice, would that be valid towards the p&g coupon book MIR?

  59. Thank you for the heads up on the Real Simple Rebate. I was able to purchase How to Train your Dragon + 2 Curel Lotions for a grand total of $6.38 after gift cards!

  60. I am having a little bit of trouble with the $10 MIR for the $30 of covergirl products. I should have spent $30.24 before coupons (3 mascaras at $6.94 each and 3 eyeshadows at $3.14 each), however, I used target coupons and on the receipt, it looks like I spent $1 less for some of the items. I also think that not all of the coupons scanned correctly as I was charged for one of the eyeshadows even though I had 3 buy a covergirl product, get an eyeshadow free coupons, but that is a different issue.

    I took a picture of my receipt and wanted to see if you were willing to look out it and see if I need to buy more or if it is ok. I couldn’t find your email address. Please let me know where I can send the picture. Thanks so much!

  61. Yes Jennie, just circle the cost of the products before coupons. That is what I did and I got my check the other day. They ended up costing me about $2-3 total after coupons (including tax) and I got the $10 back 🙂

  62. Okay, so for the Olay/Venus rebate, I can include the items that I recieved free after coupon as part of my $30?

  63. Triaminic Fever Reducer Pain Reliever Free Offer. Purchase (4oz) product in Bubble Gum or Grape Flavor between August 2 – 8, 2010. Submit request for rebate form at http://www.triamingiveaway.com.
    There is also coupons found in 07-25 S Triaminic Fever Reducer Pain Reliever product $1.00/1
    07-25 S Triaminic any product $3.00/2
    Get back up to $6.99.refund.

  64. Hey Dawn- that is one reason I haven’t posted it, I believe it is Walmart since All-You is a Walmart publication. BUt people are only out a stamp if they buy their qualifiers elsewhere.

  65. Just wanted to let everyone know, I ended up paying nothing for the Schick Hydro razor after coupons and all. I circled the full price which was 7.99 and my check came today for 7.99. So, they seem atleast during the start, to be accepting the full price no matter of the coupons used.

  66. Lexi– Yes you can, manufacturer (1 coupon per product) and combine with the target coupn. However, the target coupon will say target coupon at the top. Sometimes target has coupons with their logo, but they are still manufacturer coupons. Also, make sure you are buy the correct product for the rebate. I believe this one is the wheel protectant? If it is, I used coupons on this rebate and received the entire purchase price of 7.99.

  67. I’m new to couponing, so I hope someone can help me out. I want to get the Armor All rebate. I have (2) $2/1 manufacturer coupons from facebook, and the $3/2 Target coupon. Can I use all 3 coupons and still get the rebate? Basically, I need to know if I can use a $2/1 MFQ on the wheel protectant and still get the rebate? Thank you in advance!

  68. In regards to the Armor All rebate…today I used a Target coupon ($3 off any two Armor All products) and a $2 coupon on Armor All’s Facebook page ( http://www.facebook.com/ArmorAll make sure you “like” them).

    I bought the wheel protectant ($6.99 so will get full reimbursement) and a small container of glass wipes ($3.99)…the wipes and several other cleaning wipes are currently reduced at my Target (NW Montana). When it’s all said and done, I should actually make $1…and my hubby will be thrilled with goodies for the cars! 😀

  69. I just sent my Schick Rebate off. I will let you know what i end up with (rebate or no rebate)……I received it all for free (including the shaving cream).So either way I can’t complain. The “any other offers” isn’t very clear on whether they mean no coupons or any other rebate offer.

  70. This is such a wonderful resource to make my money stretch at Target! Thank you for your hard work!!

  71. I was wondering when you send in for a rebate can you cut off the portion at the bottom of the reciept that has info on how you paid? You know the portion that has the last four of your card number, or can you black it out?

  72. I saw a “try me free” package of plasticware at Target today; didn’t buy it today, and can’t remember the brand name, but it’s a pack of plasticware that looks like silverware. The price was $3.99 and it was displayed on an endcap. I know I’m not helping all that much, but you can be on the lookout! 🙂

  73. I saw a mail in rebate sticker on Swiffer refills at the store tonight. Only glanced at it as I wasn’t buying the product. It said to go to swiffer.com to get the rebate form. Think is said buy $20 worth of refills get $10 mail in rebate. Don’t know details, but hoping you can find it.

  74. THANK you.. i always forget to do the MIR.. and can never seem to find the url i saw the info on. 😉

  75. Hi Kerry, love the new look! Can you add the $10 Febreze rebate you posted on June 22nd? Thanks for all you do!
