You’ve already learned what it takes to maximize your spending and why cash back shopping should be your top priority when making purchases, but did you know there are certain stores that always offer rewards, bonuses or cash back incentives?! The CGS Team is sharing 8 stores that always offer some form of reward, discount or cash back feature for frequent shoppers.
AutoZone
If you have a car, you know how costly maintenance can be. To get cash back on your auto care purchases, you don’t want to skimp on the AutoZone rewards program. Every time you make a purchase at AutoZone, you will receive a credit. After 5 credits, you get a $20 reward. You also get access to exclusive offers and discounts.
Best Buy
Another area that most people indulge in is electronics. Best Buy is one of the leading retailers for electronics, appliances, movies and more. Join the My Best Buy program and you will accrue .5 pionts for every dollar spent. Once you hit 250 points, you get a $5 reward. The more you spend, the more the points balance increases. Since appliances aren’t always cheap, this is a great program to save on future purchases.
Kohl’s
The coupons, discounts, and cash back offers that Kohl’s Yes2You Reward members get is unreal! Every dollar you spend is equal to a point. After 100 points, you’ll receive a $5 reward. Not to mention, reward members receive 8 additional offers during the year, a special birthday offer, and double points opportunities.
Macy’s
You can find just about anything you need at Macy’s. To take advantage of the rewards and cash back offers, you will need a Macy’s store credit card. That may sound like a hassle, but it’s worth it! Macy’s Star Rewards members get 25% discounts with star passes, free shipping, 5% back in rewards, and a special birthday offer. Card holders also receive coupons throughout the year, access to the annual “friends and family” discount to share with others, and exclusive sales.
Petco
Pets can be expensive, and they do require maintenance. Help cover the costs of pet care and expenses by joining the Petco Pals Rewards program. Reward members get one point for every dollar they spend, and once they reach 100 points, a $5 reward is earned. Members also get a free birthday treat for their pet, free shipping on all repeat delivery orders, and additional discounts throughout the year.
Starbucks
We all know Starbucks can be expensive, but somehow, we always end up going back! If you frequent Starbucks on the regular, consider signing up for the Starbucks Rewards program. You earn two stars for every dollar you spend and once you reach 300 stars (in a calendar year), you become eligible for a free drink at that level and for every 125 stars then on. Members also get free in-store refills and a complimentary birthday treat.
Ulta
Beauty lovers! Take advantage of the Ulta Ultamate Rewards program to save money on your favorite beauty products, supplies, and services. Every dollar you spend equals one point. After 100 points, you will earn $3 off your next purchase. Makeup and beauty supplies can add up quickly, but that means your rewards will too!
Walgreens
There is a Walgreens on every corner (pun intended), so take advantage of your prescription and drug store purchases by signing up for the Balance Rewards program. Shoppers earn 10 points for every $1 spent. Points quickly turn to cash back rewards. The more points you accumulate, the bigger the cash back reward will be.
