Inflation may be a thorn in your wallets right now, but that isn’t stopping many of you from purchasing gifts this holiday season!
According to a recent TopCashback survey, nearly 90% of our members are shopping for presents. But 61% admit to overspending on gifts every year.
That got us thinking. What are some holiday shopping tips that would help our favorite bargain hunters save more than spend—despite skyrocketing prices?
Here are four:
ICYMI, you can now earn cash back on hundreds of eGift cards. Our new gift card shop includes stores we have (i.e., Carter’s, eBay, Home Depot) and stores we don’t have (i.e., Wayfair, Bath & Body Works, Target).
When ordering your card, request an amount you think will pay for your entire store purchase. For example, if you plan to spend roughly $90 at Big Lots, set the gift card amount for $90. You’ll get 5.72% of your money back, or $5.15. It doesn’t seem like a whole lot, but in times like these, every bit helps.
Of course, these gift cards are great for gifting, too. You can send them via email or print them out as stocking stuffers. No matter what, you’ll score some cash.
Enough with the gazillion store apps. Install TopCashback to your phone, and all your favorite retailers will only be a button away. By opting in for push notifications, you’ll be alerted to increased cash back offers and limited time bonuses. It’s savings at your fingertips!
Not only does our browser extension save you so much time and effort from searching for deals, but it spares you the heartache of forgetting to apply cash back at checkout.
In other words, every time you visit a store online that’s eligible for cash back, the browser extension will notify you with a big pink get cash back button. This tool also doubles as a coupon finder!
Currently, our browser extension is free to install on Google Chrome and Firefox.
Install TopCashback to your phone, and all your favorite retailers will only be a button away.
Even though we bring you higher cash back rates than anyone else, there may be a time or two where the competition will have the “better” offer.
If this happens, make your purchase through TopCashback anyway. Submit a claim immediately after. We’ll review it and match the competitor’s rate. It’s our guarantee to you.
By adding these four features to your savings toolkit, and checking back here for more money hacks, you’ll be in great shape for the holidays.
