"Never Pay Full Price"

My motto, which applies on everything from books, to school supplies, to clothing, and even electronics, is "Never Pay Full Price". I worked in retail right out of high school and quickly learned that every item will eventually go on sale, if not on clearance. Most often, items are rotated in Retail Stores to go on sale once every four to eight weeks. With a little patience, you can save a lot of money. With school coming up and money being paid out for tuition, housing and lab fees, it is important to save the money wherever possible. Now, I am usually weary of Affiliate Programs and try to conduct as much research on one before joining. I do not believe in endorsing products or services I do not utilize or purchase myself as well. This one...is great.

I was referred to try Ebates.com by a family member. The "$5 for you" offer was mighty enticing, I must say! After all, they send you a check after your balance is only $10, meaning I only had to earn $5 in rebates. Ebates.com is free to sign up and never asks for personal information other than a name and address to mail your check to. They have 900+ merchants to shop at. Let's see: Target, Office Depot, Apple Store, American Eagle...looks to be all of my favorites. A few purchases of school supplies and back-to-school clothes and I received a check in the mail for $16.78. Now that is free money!
