Online Deal of the Day - Ebates.com

by Traci Anderson

I refuse to pay full price for anything.  Some would say I am a cheapskate…but I prefer the term "Frugal".

I just spent nearly an hour trying to get a discount on the very last hotel room available over Thanksgiving break in Bismark, North Dakota. 

I am not sure whether I should refer to it as a vacation, or as punishment for moving so far away from my family (they live in Minnesota and I live in Montana).

Regardless, in a last ditch effort to find a "middle of nowhere" hotel discount. I found Ebates.com.

They are currently running a promotion where they are giving away $10.00 gift cards to anyone that joins.  

I just earned a 3% discount on my hotel room, along with a $5.00 joining bonus…plus a $10.00 Target card. 

So, when I factor in my gift card and bonuses my $60+ hotel room will cost less than $40.00.  Now that certainly takes a bite out of the November so-called "vacation" in North Dakota, doesn’t it?
