SHOPPING APPS A MUST!
That Improve Your Shopping Experience!
Shopping is Chaotic, sometimes stressful, sometimes you are having a bad day. But what if you went shopping, and got money back on those items? There are several little Apps I am going to review over the next few weeks, that will help with Holiday shopping as well!
CHECKOUT 51
Checkout 51 is a shopping app that gives you money back on shopping for things you are already going to buy in the first place.
They have a big selection to pick from, just BUY, Scan, Get Paid!
Here is my first experience with Checkout51 so far!
I am pretty impressed! I have a ways to go to reach the payout, but not by much, think of 5 more shopping trips!!!
Best stores to use it at at least that I have noticed personally, Safeway, Target, Rite Aid. I don't think there is a limit to how many stores you can shop and save at!
How does it work?
1. Buy items from the Offer List at any store.
2. Upload a photo of your entire receipt using the app or website.
3. Earn cash back - Checkout 51 will confirm your purchase, credit your account, and you can cash out when your account reaches $20.
* New offers every Thursday. Items must be purchased and receipt must be uploaded within the valid date range.
Do I have to do anything to “earn” my offers?
Nope. Just go to any store, buy the products on offer, and upload a photo of your receipt. It’s that simple.Offers go live on Thursdays at 12:00 AM in each time zone.
Make sure to check the website then before you go on your shopping for the week!
They expire the following Wednesday at 11:59 PM in each time zone.
- All receipts must be submitted while the offer is still live, and offers go quickly and are available in limited supply. Check the App to make sure items are available so you don't miss out.
- Upload your receipt right away to ensure your earnings.
- A quantity of (1) of each offer is eligible for cash back per member. This means you may only get one of each item listed.
- Each receipt can only be used once. (this is a duh)
- They can only give cash back for the exact product listed, so please read carefully. (yes this is TRUE! I would have had another deal on Ore-Ida buying two, but I accidentally bought one of the excluded items :( But I still got 25cents back for the second one! Oh well!)
- You are permitted to use Checkout 51 cash back offers with any other coupon or discount unless otherwise stated. Tap into the offer to see any conditions. (YAY! SO COOL, so you can use coupons and discounts with it!!)
- Items purchased from online retailers are eligible for cash back. Packing slips are accepted as proof of purchase. Online purchases are subject to the same submission timelines as receipts.
Great little app *though there have been issues lately, So far it gets an A+ B+
Checkout 51 Now has a Referral link!
(Link only available on the phone app, not on the PC Website, Yet!)

Ibotta is also a shopping app that gives you money back on shopping for things you are already going to buy. Even things you have already used a coupon on. You are basically making and extra bit of cash back for everything you buy, you just scan your receipt, and boom, they pay you! I have seen coupons for Milk, Bananas, Bread, even on Alcohol!
Update
Since I have an Amazon Tablet 6, and Ibotta refuses to work unless installed with google play (meaning Can't do ANYTHING other than download with google play or what, Apple App store, which my TABLET DOES NOT GET.) I am very disappointed, I will have to wait to get a phone to use it :-( they emailed me and told me that it will download on tablets but that isn't true in my case. I BETTER GET MY $10) sign up thing! I DID try to send them a receipt and I am saying nice things about them on my blog!! Get something on the Amazon apps store, please? to download without a phone number or google play? That is my user analysis! Thank you.
I wrote them 2 emails, and in both the emails the just said the same thing, I need the app to verify the stuff, and Tables can use the apps, but that's a partial lie"
Here is my last email to them
"Your last letter just mostly repeated the letter I got before. I understand MOST tablets can download the thing, but MY tablet will not, I have done everything I can!!! seriously, EVERYTHING!!! You should offer it on the Amazon Apps platform so people with the Amazon Fire Tablets can use them! Please at LEAST just credit the $10 for TRYING to upload the receipt in multiple ways, including emailing support first, it expires TODAY!! Heck, I will even forget the first receipt that I was non-credited $2.50. I just got that email today too, I don't want to have to change my rating on my blog, and give you a lower grade for not being able to apply to all different download platforms and not even looking at someone TRYING to upload a receipt. I definitely want to keep it as an affiliate. I WILL wait till I get a new phone for any more receipts, but this not working for me, and you guys keep telling me it should it should, it will and not listening to me, your customers, your word of mouth advertising, I only advertise things I believe in. I hope we can settle this. If the next person cannot help me and tells me the same thing again, please send me the name of someone who can help me higher up. Thank you for your help!"

Sometimes up to $5 back or more! I'm not kidding! (ALL and ANY BRAND and it doesn't matter where you buy it! (there are a FEW exceptions, but mostly it says Multiple Locations! Just scan your receipt and make money back!
If you have a smartphone and you aren't using Ibotta to shop, you are REALLY missing out!!
P.S. This app and the following apps let you stack savings...
Meaning you can save 50 cents on EACH of the apps on lets say, Milk, you earn back $1.50 (saying that you are using the first 3)
and I believe there is a $5 minimum payout, and they mail you a check.
So far This one gets an A from me too, (except my issue with the app on my Tablet!)

(No one shared this with me, I found it on my own :-( !!)
