Swagbucks has an app (called Answer) where you’re paid 2 cents per grocery store receipt.

I don’t think so, but as with everything tax-related, I would talk to my accountant.

I’ve found this, though: https://turbotax.intuit.ca/tips/5-tax-deductible-items-grocery-store-9440

Any idea what eco friendly taxes are if a person isn’t purchasing electronics? I was encouraged to try online grocery orders and I’m 8 months pregnant so I gave it a go with Superstore and am seeing this nearly $20 tax on my order. I can’t seem to find anything online.

Are there not any sites that just want you to scan receipts, not save offers before shopping? I thought years ago checkout 51 just requested you to upload your receipts only.???

Lifestyle inflation is so easy and can knock you off your budget and savings objective in a flash. I like the clear reminder of how hard it can be to control.

Hey Dan
Quick question, do you know if receipts for everyday things like groceries or clothing can be filed into our taxes during the tax season for a higher tax return?

I believe you’d be better off printing coupons or even using apps like Flipp (that shows coupons too).

Are there sites that we can buy coupons. For instance I’m in an area where I don’t have access to any of the newspaper inserts like redplum or smart source. So I knew of someone or a place online that I could purchase some of those insert coupons it would be great for me.

After doing some online research, I have concluded that Ebates.ca has a BAD reputation for NOT paying. Below outlines my “NOT PAID” conversation which matches many others online. I will have to start blogging about my personal Ebates.ca experiences.

Thank you for telling me what I already know. BEFORE May 15, 2017…..Ebates.ca stated I was getting a “Big Fat Payment of $42.?? (something cents) on May 15, 2017” and NOW my “Big Fat Payment” has been PUSHED BACK TO AUGUST 15, 2017……WHY?

If you cannot answer this truthfully, please forward to someone who can or I will take this further on my own.

Respectfully,
R*******

A “Big Fat Payment” of $42.?? was supposed to be issued to my PayPal account today, May 15, 2017 and now I see you’ve pushed it ahead to August 15, 2017. WHY?
