Tip for shopping this holiday season:

In addition to traditional couponing and sales, you can save easily using smartphone apps that give you cash back or rewards for purchases you already make. The following three apps are simple to use and can add up to noticeable savings:

  • Fetch Rewards: Scan grocery receipts for rewards. Fetch Rewards is a receipt-scanning app that earns you points whenever you submit receipts from grocery stores. It accepts receipts from almost any grocery store, and points can be redeemed for gift cards and other rewards. This is an effortless way to get value from purchases you’re already making. Sign up for Fetch Rewards here.
  • Rakuten: Get cash back when shopping online. Rakuten (formerly Ebates) gives you cash back when you shop through their portal at participating retailers. Start by clicking the store’s link in the Rakuten app or website, shop as usual, and receive a portion of your purchase back as cash. Many major stores participate, making it an easy step that pays off over time. When you sign up through my link and make a qualifying purchase, you may be eligible for a sign-up bonus.
  • GetUpside: Earn cash back on gas, groceries, and dining. GetUpside is an app that highlights nearby gas stations, grocery stores, and restaurants offering cash back. After creating a free account, select an offer in the app, make the purchase, and upload your receipt or link your payment to claim the cash back. Typical offers include cents-per-gallon savings on fuel and percentage cashback at grocery stores and restaurants. Learn more about GetUpside here.

I personally use all three of these apps and recommend them for anyone seeking simple, everyday ways to save money without much extra effort. Over time, combining receipt-scanning apps, online cash back portals, and location-based offers can reduce your spending and increase the value you get from regular purchases.

Whether you want to lower holiday expenses, start a side hustle, or learn a new skill that can generate income, the resources above are a great place to begin. If you’re focused on saving right now, prioritize offers and apps that fit your normal shopping habits so the savings are effortless.

Wishing you a financially smart and stress-free holiday season. Enjoy!
