I heard all the hype about Ibotta so signed up. What a nightmare! Don't waste your time thinking you're going to save tons of money. The exorbitant time you have to spend chasing down the rebates and then emailing back and forth with customer service is better served by clipping real coupons. Take the Walmart receipt code hype for example... supposedly you just take photo with your phone and Ibotta will in fact know what you bought and give you the rebates immediately. NOT! It doesn't work and now I've wasted several days with going back and forth with customer service and I still don't have the correct rebates. I even tried only purchasing 4 items for each receipt and that doesn't work either. Excuse after excuse and still no resolution.

I could have saved more money by just using regular coupons or store sales and saved the money on the front end rather than spending full price and hoping for a rebate. There are terrific coupon clipping services where you can pay very nominal clipping fees and obtain newspaper coupons.

I was optimistic at first because of the hype but now I see that's all it is... hype. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere.

Any time there is an issue, they are Johnny on the spot to remedy it!
