IBOTTA!!!!!!!!!!!!

I mentioned in my Grocery Shopping post that I hate couponing. I did do couponing for awhile, but I found two things: It took too much time and often the coupons didn't really reflect the things that I needed to purchase. I love Sam's because they give me instant rebates on items I already love to buy. Today, I received $3 back on my Dawn detergent today and $3.50 off of my frozen salmon filets too! So awesome because those things were on my list and I didn't have to coupon.
Aldi doesn't even accept coupons. Guys I purchased 66 items today at Aldi, including 4 gallons of milk, Smores' fixins, Fresh Fruit and Veggies all for $130!!!!!!!!!!

I may dislike couponing, but I LOVE IBOTTA!!!!!!!!! It is an app for your phone that you get instant rebates for your purchases. Before I shop, I just check real quick to see if anything on my list is on IBOTTA that day. Sometimes I see something I've been wanting to get and will put it on the list if I see a rebate. After you shop, you scan the bar codes on the items you purchased and then take a picture of your receipt on your phone. Submit and you get your credit on your IBOTTA account within a day. I save mine and once I get $50, I cash it in at my Paypal account so I can use it. Recently, I used it to get myself a few new clothes at one of my favorite online boutiques www.apartmenteighteen.com

Seriously, y'all should check it out. They even do more than groceries! And, if you're like me and don't drink alcohol, you can turn off those notifications (there were A LOT of rebates on alcohol crowding up my feed, haha).
