In case you haven’t heard yet, there is a new app for your smartphone is saves you money on things you are already buying, kind of like a double coupon. The app is called Ibotta (available for iPhone and Android ) and after you sign up you can start earning money for all the items you normally buy. Plus you get a $5 bonus for the first offer you participate in (ends soon!)

Here is how you get the savings:

1. Before you start shopping log into Ibotta and choose which offers or items you would like to earn.
2. Next go to your store that you will be shopping (there is a long list of available stores)
3. Buy the offers or items you signed up for on Ibotta and send a picture of your receipt with your phone. They will credit your account for your purchases within 24 hours and pay you for the offers or items you bought.
4. After the credit is in your account you can have it sent directly to your Paypal account!
