Making Money

GOMEZ	This site actually pays you to sign up for certain services. Interested in opening an online bank account? Gomez will pay you between $37.50 and $100 to open an account with one of their recommended banks. I opened an account and received $100. I also opened a credit card account through them for another $75. You can also receive rebates and reviews for all kinds of other purchases including travel, automobiles, computer equipment, etc.
EBATES	Ebates is my current favorite rebate site. I like Gomez because of the size of their rebates, but they don't have as many sites of interest to me as ebates does. Most of the rebates from this site are for a specific percentage of your purchase price. They do have a few stores that they give either flat rebates for or free shipping. I never buy anything without checking here first to see if they offer rebates at the store I'm interested in. In order to get the rebate, you must enter the store through the ebates site, so be sure to check here first. Please use my referrer id: agkahn so I can get credit for referring you.
BIZRATE	BizRate was the first rebate site I discovered. I earned quite a bit of money from them over the past year. However, in the last couple of months, they've stopped giving rebates for most of the merchants I frequent, so I don't use this site too often anymore. I particularly liked them because if you got a BizRate credit card (issued through NextCard), you didn't have to wait as long for your rebates, because they credited them directly to your credit card. Also, they charge a small check processing fee if they have to send you a check, but that fee is waived if you have the BizRate credit card. I suggest comparing Ebates and BizRate and go through whichever one is offering the better deal.
IGAIN	Igain is similar to Ebates and BizRate only with not quite as many stores represented. But, if you don't see stores listed on one of the others, be sure to check Igain also.

I've found a few websites that give you cash rebates for your internet purchases. So, not only do I find some of the best prices for items on the internet, but I get rebates too. Not a bad deal! Each of the sites below rates internet merchants as well as offering rebates.
