$ Ka- Ching! Make money at the supermarket!

Get paid to do your grocery run? Why, yes! Thanks to apps and programs like ibotta, National Consumer Panel and Berrycart, you can make money or earn rewards every time you check out!

✔ SAVE ON STAPLES WITH IBOTTA!

Get cash back on your groceries at participating retailers like Acme, Meijer, Kroger and more with the free rebate app ibotta! Simply download it to your phone, then before you go shopping, check it for products offering cash rewards. For example, you may find $1 off Buitoni tortellini. Even better? In some instances, you don’t even have to buy a particular brand— it could just be 50 cents off ground beef! To “unlock” the rebate, you’ll have to complete a simple task, like reading a quick fact or taking a brief survey. Then click the redeem button on the app, and upload a photo of your receipt— your “earnings” will be deposited into your Paypal or Venmo account! Bonus! It takes only one task to unlock a rebate, but if you choose to do more, you can get extra money back on your purchase!

✔ SCAN YOUR WAY TO REWARDS WITH NCP!

The National Consumer Panel (NCP) collects supermarket shopping data that manufacturers and retailers use to improve products— and they’ll pay you to help them! Sign up at Join.ncponline. com. You’ll receive either a handheld scanner or gain access to the Ncpmobile App you can download. Then just scan and submit the bar codes of products you buy each week. In return, you’ll earn points you can redeem for electronics, jewelry, toys and other items. Bonus! As a panelist, you’ll be automatically included in sweep- stakes for extra gift cards, rewards and cash.

✔ SCORE DEALS ON ORGANIC AND GLUTEN-FREE GOODS WITH BERRYCART!

This free rebate app offers cash back on organic foods and beverages, including gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian products. Popular brands include Runa, Saffron Road, Beanitos and Coco Libre, which usually don’t offer coupons! Simply download the app, then browse for rebate offers and unlock the ones you want by performing a task like taking a quiz or learning a fact. After you buy, upload a picture of your receipt to the app, and you’ll get cash deposited in your Paypal account. You can also select a gift card option. Bonus! When coupons are available, you can use them in addition to Berrycart’s rebates, so you make even more!
