Nothing could be more convenient that Christmas shopping online. Shopping online can be more economical too. Not only will you save gas money, but there are many sales and specials that only exist at online stores. It's even possible to MAKE money by Christmas shopping online. Follow these steps to learn how.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Earn $10 just for signing up for a free account at Ebates.com. (You'll find a referal link in resources section below). You've just earned $10 and the shopping hasn't even started yet.

  2. Step 2

    Browse the 1000+ stores you can shop at through Ebates. You'll see names you recognize like Nordstrom, Walmart, and Victoria's Secret.

  3. Step 3

    Do your online browsing as usual, but before you make a purchase, link to the online store through the Ebates website. This way you'll earn CASH BACK on a purchase you were going to make anyway. You can also access any Ebates coupons that might be available for the store you were visiting.

  4. Step 4

    Once you've clicked through to the online store, the rest of your shopping experience will look just the same as it normally does.

  5. Step 5

    You can also earn money by referring friends to Mr. Ebates.

  6. Step 6

    Check the Ebates website frequently and watch your earnings grow. Every three months Ebates will cut you a check or pay you via Paypal, provided your cash back shopping rewards have reached $5.01 or more. At that time they'll also pay you for your opening and referral bonuses.

  7. Step 7

    Enjoy the fact that you have made money by doing shopping you were going to do anyway!
