Hello! Welcome to my referral links page. When you use my links to shop, it can save YOU money, supports my blog and also helps fund the giveaways I do every month for my email list.
My Patreon page can be found here.
Grocery Shopping:
Walmart Grocery pick up ($10.00 off $35.00 order for YOU!)
Save $10.00 on store-brand food that you would have bought anyway, with Walmart's FREE grocery pickup service. I usually do an order once a month. It saves a ton of time.
Ibotta ($10.00 welcome bonus for YOU!)
Save at least $0.25 on groceries every week with their "any item" rebate. Save even more with "any brand" rebates or stack coupons with rebates on name-brand items.
Ebates ($10.00 welcome bonus for YOU!)
My last Ebates bonus was $0.17 for a Shutterfly order that I only paid shipping for. Even the shipping cost is eligible for some cash back with Ebates!
Swagbucks (Free Money)
This is a rebate site similar to Ebates. I don't bother watching videos, answering surveys or doing internet searches because it's not worth my time. HOWEVER, the "SwagButton" that goes on your internet tool bar will alert you if any "swag codes" are available. Each code is worth $0.02- $0.06 each. All I have to do is click on the link, copy the code and paste it to my swag button. It takes me a couple months to reach the $3.00 cash out limit, which can be spent on Amazon.
Healthcare Costs:
Samaritan Ministries (list "Bethany Bontrager" as how you heard about Samaritan when you sign up)
Looking for a good alternative to pricey health insurance? Samaritan Ministries is the Christian cost sharing ministry that we use to cover healthcare costs over $300.00. For a family of three or more it costs $495.00 per month. Over $10,000 of maternity costs were covered for the birth of our baby girl. We consider this just as good and reliable as health insurance, plus our monthly check goes directly to another member to cover actual hospital bills.
Miscellaneous:
Books & Reading:
Scribd is a subscription service that offers unlimited ebooks, audio books and PDF files for $9.00 per month. In the past, I tried Audible, which gives you two audio books for $15.00 per month. That's not a bargain, plus their library doesn't include as many independently published books or ebooks like Scribd does. This is one membership service that is Renaissance Housewife Approved!
Cloth Diapers:
Diaper Depot (10% off YOUR first order!)
Wait until your favorite cloth items are on sale or discounted (preferably both!), then use my code to get an additional 10% off. An easy way to get 25% off a purchase that is going to save you money anyway.
Photo Books:
Shutterfly (a free photo book for YOU!)
From time to time Shutterfly runs a "free photo book" promotion. The shipping is usually around $8.00, but even that cost is eligible for an Ebates rebate. I love doing photo books for vacations, special events and baby pictures.
Hotel Stays:
Airbnb (make your first booking and save up to $55.00)
We like to use Airbnb while traveling in the U.S. With a little bit of planning ahead, you can often get a better bang for your buck; more amenities, more rooms, and more nights for the money!
