A brief hijack -- PR, how is your back/shoulder this week? Have you been able to go back to work?

Thanks for asking, kac. Still sore, sadly, and I'm off work for another week. Hoping to pick up another note tomorrow. They said they'd call today if I need to see the doc again, but they close in an hour, so I am guessing I don't.

Sounded pretty good, but DO read every single word of their Terms and Conditions.
Main points I noticed:
- "Qualified purchases" are subject to review and "cash back" rewards are at the sole discretion of Ebates. None are guaranteed.
- You won't be told of any changes to affiliate lists (a vendor is deleted). It's your responsibility to keep checking their lists and your account. If a vendor ceases to be part the system, or doesn't tell Ebates about the purchase, you won't be credited with a "cash back" reward.
- You're paid "cash back" only once every 3 months - there's a list under Terms and Conditions.
- You must access the vendor from the Ebates website, as a click through. You can't go directly to the vendor, make a purchase and have it count towards a "qualifying" purchase.
There's other, more detailed information, but the above were the ones that jumped out at me. Again, be sure to read every word of their Terms and Conditions so you aren't disappointed if your membership isn't what you thought it might be.
N.B. They do have an "opt out" for emails from third parties (all their vendors and advertisers); be sure to opt out if you don't want a ton of advertising emails.

Most interesting.
Question - I am part way through a purchase from Big Fish for a game of the year for $4.99. The Ebates site says that there is a $5.00 rebate - is it really possible that this game will be free to me or am I misunderstanding how this all works?

You should get $5 for joining and 12% back from the $4.99 puchase as well.

Another brief hi-jack. Got my doc's note without any problem today. Just hope it's the last one I need! Still taking Diclofenac and have a heat pad on today.

PR - I was trying to sign up but it kept asking me for your email address. It says it is optional though. If I click on the link, will you automatically get the credit or do I need to provide your email address??

I signed up, too.  Might make me reconsider dropping my BFG membership, at that...

I should read things more closely!
A qualified referral is a new user to Ebates referred by you who makes a purchase of $25 or more earning cash back.
To qualify for the bonus, the new member you refer via your custom
referral link, the invitation forms on this page or other methods
supplied by Ebates that allow for proper tracking of referrals, must
make a qualifying purchase of $25+ between 3/1/11 and 5/30/11.
So it looks like unless any of you are big spenders, I won't get credit anyway. Oh well.
I thought this was mean, too:
Posting messages or links on any Ebates partner stores' Facebook pages
or forum pages using your referral links is not allowed and will result
in disqualification from the referral bonus program.

It makes sense as it costs money to do their admin.
On the bright side, just about everyone in this forum will purchase at least $25 from BFG during the three months listed. Even me and I wait for sales.
AS long as people remember the ebates, PR should get some referral bits from us.

I misread that thing about FB. I thought it said you can't post your links anywhere on FB, but it means ebates' FB page, so that's understandable.
I am not expecting anybody to spend $25 in one purchase (which is how I read the terms), so that's fine if I don't get any more bonuses.
BUT I did get a bonus today from Genki! Thank you very much, Genki. I got $5!
