NOTE: As of May 2019, Ebates has changed its name to Rakuten.
If you’re in the market for some new luggage, this is the perfect time. Not only is eBags having a huge sale right now, but Ebates is offering 20% cash back. The best part? Ebates is honoring coupon code DEALS, which gets you an extra 25% off sitewide! If that’s not enough, you can earn up to 10% back through eBags’ rewards program.
If you’re not a member, you can sign up with my ebags referral link and receive a $10 credit. The same goes with Ebates – new members receive a $10 credit for signing up with a referral link. So if you’ve got your eye on a brand new carry-on bag, you can save a ton on your purchase through this offer. Not an Ebates fan? TopCashBack is offering 18% cash back, while the AAdvantage shopping portal is offering 10 miles per $1 spent.
I took advantage of this deal today to buy a pair of boots. I got the same boots from Nordstrom and they were half a size too big. A Google search turned up the same pair on eBags for $138. That’s when I noticed the 25% promo code and after checking Cashback Monitor for payout rates, I discovered Ebates had the highest payout and honored the 25% off DEALS promo code.
The promo code brought the price down to $103, I earned $2.07 in eBags rewards, and I’m due to receive about $20 worth of cash back. So overall, the price of these $185 boots dropped down to just $81.42. Stacking the new-member rewards from both eBags and Ebates would have saved me another $20, but I already have accounts and didn’t feel like going down the whole referral circle. Saving 56% was good enough for me.
As far as luggage goes, the 25% off promotion excludes most high-end brands like Briggs & Riley and Tumi. Even TravelPro is excluded. However, pretty much everything is on sale and Briggs & Riley Baseline Collection items are eligible for $50 off every $350. Stacked with the sign-up bonuses from Ebates and eBags, it all adds up to significant rewards. I’m all set on the luggage front, so I’ll probably stock up on some packing cubes since those are dirt cheap right now.
Anyway, I wanted to put this on your radar since you don’t see 20% cash back (on top of 25% off) every day. If you see any good deals on merchandise from eBags (for personal or reselling purposes), please share in the comment section.
