Struggling to use cashback apps because you never buy the offered items? Question from a reader: I know you use cashback apps to get points and cashback on receipts, but that doesn’t work for me because I mainly buy generic brands. I don’t buy the expensive brands that give you a lot of cashback because generic brands are still cheaper, and I don’t need to pay as much out of pocket. Honestly, that’s me a lot also. The first thing I grab is a generic brand item, and I only buy “expensive” brands when they’re heavily on sale. I also don’t like spending money out of pocket on the premise that I will get cashback I can cash out at some future date. To me, that doesn’t work. The good thing is that you can use cashback apps to get rewards on generic products also! The Truth Let me be straight with you. You won’t get tons of money with these apps, especially if you aren’t buying big brand-name items and getting the big promos. But you can still slowly add up points until you get a nice amount. It’s really a tiny bit of effort, so it’s worth it. Many of these apps let you connect your loyalty or store accounts, so you don’t even need to upload your receipt. It just does it automatically. And of course, if a brand goes on clearance or has a great deal and you can stack it with cash back, you’ll get some real rewards! So let me show you which apps give you cashback on generic products also! The following links are affiliate links, meaning if you purchase any of these items using my links, I will receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. You can read the full disclaimer here.  Fetch My favorite cashback app is Fetch because it gives you 25 points for every receipt no matter what. Even if your total is $0, you still get the 25 points. You also don’t need to add offers before you upload your receipt, so you won’t miss any deals.  Fetch lets you connect many store accounts and your email, so you can get cashback at Walmart, Publix, Amazon, Instacart, and more.  You do need to go into the app and click “submit” on receipts, but it will match them to offers automatically. Fetch will also offer bonuses for small tasks or games. For example, I just got 1000 points for signing up for Dixie’s email list. That’s a nice bump for basically nothing. Download and enter code M425DF to earn a special bonus when you upload your first receipt or click here. Receipt Hog Receipt Hog also gives you a point for every receipt you upload, but since it’s only one point, it takes a long time to cash out. They do not usually have any extra cashback offers, so it takes a long time to reach enough to cash out. They also have surveys you

As your business starts making money, eventually you’ll face a nice problem: How much cash should I actually keep in my business? Should you keep three months of expenses? Six months? $25,000? $100,000? I’ve struggled with this question myself at Hill Media. Early on, I kept too little cash. Then, after learning some lessons the hard way, I probably swung too far in the other direction. Today, I don’t have one magical cash target. Instead, […]
