Hey you! Yes you go get these rewards.


We all work hard for out money so why not sign up for some reward programs to earn cash back or points that can be redeemed for gift cards.  I’m sure you already shop at Amazon or Starbucks so why not put your receipts and money to work for you.  Some you don’t do anything other than link your credit card, while others you must claim a reward and then upload a receipt.  None of them take more than a minute or 2 to do.   The longest part is getting the app and setting up the account, which I think took less than 5 minutes.

 

The ones below I use currently.  Some I have already cashed out a reward and others I am still building my points/money to reach the level so I can cash out.  All the apps are free and don’t take away from what your TV shows.  In fact, since I am already playing on my phone it makes sense to upload receipts.

 

So, find one that works for you and have fun. 

 

 

Dosh

 

With Dosh you just link any credit card and enjoying shopping and dining out at places near you.  I have found that not all places near me are part of Dosh but that’s I just go about by normal day and let the cash back build up.

 

This one is slower in getting to the amount I need to cash out but its fine for me since I do other reward programs as well.   I have this one for a few years and haven’t reached the level to cash out.  Lucky there’s no time limit cash out.

 


 

 

Drop

 

With Drop you get points at places like Starbucks, McDonalds, and Bath and Body Works.  I have already cashed out a small reward and have had the account for almost a year and I can cash out for another reward.

 


 

 

Rakuten

 

You get cash back when you shop online.  You just launch the app and go to the company you want to shop and shop away.  I have earned a few bucks already shopping on Amazon.  The good thing is that once you click on Amazon inside the app it will take you to your Amazon app and you will not have to log back into Amazon to each your cash back.  It works the same if you shop on a computer. 

 

I just started using this and I have about $11.31 in my account already and part of that is a welcome bonus. 

 


 

 

GetUpSide

 

With GetUpSide you get money back on your gas purchases.  It ranges anywhere from $.01 to $.10 back per gallon.  That’s on top of whatever rewards the gas station has.  When you need to get gas you launch the app and see what gas stations are near you that has money back.  You claim the offer and get gas.  Once you get your receipt just launch the app again and take a picture and the money ends up in your account.  This one you do have a 4-hour window to fill up and scan the receipt once you claim the offer.

 

Since I have the BP rewards, I am already saving $.05 per gallon and I usually find the BP station on way home, that is giving me $.07 cash back into my account.  How can I pass that up?

 


 

Fetch Rewards

 

With Fetch Rewards you turn your grocery receipts into points so you can redeem them for gift cards.  We all shop so might as put those receipts to good use.  I just started and am close to a small reward.

 

Use my referral code, T4W6H, during signup and you'll get 2,000 Fetch Points ($2.00 in points!) just for starting.

Holiday letter 2019

Well it’s that time of year. All the kids are great. Billy Bob is on Pluto trying to build skateboards so they have something to do up there.  Ursula has decided that being a piece of sand is a much more luxurious job that working on a dirt farm on Antarctica. She pulls the roller skates around for the researchers there.

Skippy the golden retriever is still running his flea grooming business.  He has had an elephant to help out and had expanded to the oceans and the sun. He’s racking is some serious nuts. So much that he’s invested in oil on Pluto.

The twins Agnes snd Augustus are roam space in a tube of toothpaste. They are filming a movie that should be a hit amongst the worms and cats.

As for me I’m just sitting here in amazing that my kids are traveling the world and universe.
