Have you heard of Coupon Cactus? Not only do they offer awesome online coupons, but they also offer cashback for 1000s of places to shop. Everything from electronics at Best Buy to airline tickets are featured. If you think coupons aren’t saving you enough, then their cashback offers will make it worth your while. Coupons are available without logging in. To earn cashback on your purchases, simply create a login.

How could you use Coupon Cactus?

Let’s use my family as an example. We’re planning a vacation later this summer to the beach. We need towels, bathing suits, and a few summertime clothes. We can purchase bathing suits from Land’s End (1.5% cashback), a few things for the girls from Justice (40% off and 2% cashback), and Banana Republic (25% off and 1% cashback). Say we budget $100 in items/per store, with coupons and cashback we’d save $65 and earn $3.45 cutting our total spending to $231.55 or an overall discount of 33%! Not too shabby.

Next we need a place to stay. Looking through the hotel deals-I have a ton of options. If we book somewhere like Airfare.com we can get 20% cashback! What if we decided to use Marriott? They offer 2% cashback, but I could also purchase giftcards to pay for my stay and earn an additional 2% back. Add in the discounts that are being offered (or even use your points to pay for the stay), and your savings could be significant.

Now we need things to do, and food to eat while on vacation. We could get groceries delivered from Peapod and save $15 with a coupon, and earn $4 cashback.  There are also deals and coupons on attractions and amusements nationwide.

The options are limitless. My favorite way to use Coupon Cactus.com is to us it in conjunction with another discount. You could buy Restaurant.com gift certificates using this 70% Off discount code: FRESH PLUS get 6% cashback via Coupon Cactus! Coupons and cashback for purchasing an Entertainment book, shopping with BuyWithMe, and more. Saving and earning money couldn’t be easier!

Have you ever used Coupon Cactus? Will you consider using them now that you know about their cashback offers?
