Don’t Forget Extra Savings When Booking Hotels
I feel really silly. I’m all about checking evreward.com for almost every purchase I’m about to make, even when it’s a long shot. But somehow the fact that you can earn cashback for booking through a hotel’s website completely escaped me, until this morning when I had an email from Ebates announcing cashback at Holiday Inn was doubled to 8%!
So now I’m writhing when I think about the $5-$10 extra savings I could have with my recent Radisson and CountryInn bookings I made. To help you avoid the same pain, here’s quick highlights of all the major hotel brands offering cashback and a link to their evreward pages with full reward options. Neither Hyatt nor Kimpton appear to be participating at the moment.
(If you decide to sign up for a Mr. Rebates account, like I did, as a result of these findings, please feel free to use my link or keri@heelsfirsttravel.com. You’ll get a $7.50 sign up bonus and give my cash back balance a boost as well 🙂 )
