Many people use cash back credit cards to save an extra one or two-percent on everything they buy. The same concept applies to cash back websites which pay you money back automatically just for using their links to popular retailers that you shop at anyway like Macy's, Kohl's, Best Buy, etc. Here are some of the most popular cash back programs. Consumer World likes eBates now called Rakuten. New customers can sign up here for it, and get a $10 bonus rebate ++ when you make your first $25 purchase through their links.
For people who can't afford traditional health insurance, lower cost alternatives exist. But they are risky, don't cover everything, have limits on coverage, and sometimes aren't even allowed to be called insurance. Such is the case with religious health care sharing organizations that pool members' monthly payments and MAY pay some of your medical costs. Buyer beware.
For tough stains on your laundry many people use separate stain removers to pretreat problem areas. Consumer Reports put the leading brands to the test, along with plain old liquid Tide and Persil. See the surprising winner and how the others ranked.
Amazon and Kohl's have been touting easy returns this year by saying you can return your Amazon purchase to Kohl's and the store will wrap it up and ship it back for free. What a simple and great program...until MrConsumer actually tried to use it.
That is our Mouse Print* story this week.
