My Blog, Your Money

A while ago, I mentioned Ebates, a site that gives its users cash back when they click through its site to participating retailers, in one of my entries about “sweet” deals.

Recently, I heard of another site called ev’reward which aggregates all the rewards available online including coupon codes/discounts, cash back rebates, savings rewards, and loyalty program rewards.  Here is an explanation of its service in its own words:

“At ev’reward, we scour the web daily for the best shopping rewards available.  Our directory includes over 14,000 rewards for over 3,000 online stores, available through more than 40 leading cash back, frequent traveler, savings reward and points programs.”

The site works pretty well and I was surprised by how many rewards I was unaware of.  I make a good portion of my purchases online so this site will definitely be my first destination when I know I’ll be buying something from a specific site.  Here’s the results when I search for Nike (click the image for the full-size version):

As you can see, the results are pretty extensive.  It looks like they weren’t kidding about the size of their directory.  I also like the “Other Suggestions” on the right side and the “More Offers” box on the bottom.   Those are nice touches.

I have just one small complaint so far: When using the reward search, sometimes an error occurs if you don’t enter the exact name of the store (e.g. Newegg vs. Newegg.com).  The site is still in beta so it’s understandable that there are a few bugs.  Just a word of warning for those who encounter this issue.
