The following is how I use Ibotta and how I suggest first time users use Ibotta so they are not overwhelmed! I do my regular grocery trip. While unpacking my food I look at Ibotta to see if I purchased anything they are offering cashback for currently. Next I add the offer to my cashback list. Last step is to take a picture of my receipt and then scan item barcodes. Ibotta usually has at least one item that I purchased without influence from the app. Use this code when signing up: kawqmq.
If you are really money savvy and have the extra time look at the app before grocery trips and combine the cashback offers with coupons. To sign up for Ibotta, please use my referral link so I can get credit for the referral!
Ibotta: Earn Money at your Local Grocery Store
Grocery Stores are usually where the most offers are found on Ibotta. What I like most about Ibotta is many of the items in the item gallery are items I already purchase. One of my recent offers was to buy a gallon of milk (any brand) at Kroger and earn $0.25 once you follow the redemption policy.
Ibotta: Earn Money at Other Places than Grocery Stores
Ibotta is not limited to grocery stores. There are offers to earn money at restaurants, movie theaters, electronics stores, babies and kids stores, home improvement stores and pet stores. Recently one of the movie theaters offers was earn a $1 on a single movie admission ticket to Anchorman 2. To receive the reward you need to keep the ticket stub to be able to take a picture of it to submit the offer on your smartphone.
