With Black Friday and Christmas fast approaching, there will be a lot of shopping done in the next few weeks.  These days I do most of my shopping online now.  Shop online is the stress free way of gift shopping.  I still remember the horror of fighting people for parking spaces at the mall when I was a little kid.  More importantly, shop online give you the ability to do price comparison that you won’t be able to do in store.

In addition, there are a lot of cash rewards programs out there that enables you to get cash back on your purchases.  If you purchase your items through their links, they receive affiliate payout from the store.  In turn, they rebate part of the affiliate payout to you.  Of all the ones I have encountered I like Ebates the most.  It has a wide array of stores and rebates from most participating stores are in the 2-6% range with some stores give even higher payout.  Furthermore, Ebates offers coupon codes to varies stores so in addition to the cash back, you can also save with coupon codes!

Happy holiday shopping!
