The holidays are tough on the wallet. You’re buying gifts, food, decor, flights… Here’s an easy way to save on all that: Earn cash back on things you already buy with Ibotta. This was originally published on The Penny...

We don’t have to tell you how expensive the holidays are.

And it’s not just the gifts. You’re also spending money on food, decorations and travel. Yay for the most wonderful time of the year!

But instead of going all Grinch on you, we like to find ways to cut costs — or, in this case, earn some cash bonuses back on our purchases with the Ibotta app.

Ibotta is easy to start using (it takes two minutes!), and you can earn money on just about anything, including holiday essentials you’re probably, most likely, definitely buying this year:

Using the Ibotta app, Nancy Frost, a library services supervisor in Cumberland, Maryland, earned more than $432 in cash in about a year’s time.

Plus, when you sign up with Ibotta and redeem 10 offers within two weeks of signing up (very doable this time of year), you’ll get a $20 bonus added to your account.

Once you have $20 in your account, you can cash out via Paypal — a perfect little pick-me-up for your bank account just when the post-holiday blues set in.
