Hello! I wanted to join in this linkup with Dara to share my favorite apps on my phone!
Amazon Smile – If you’re already shopping Amazon, which aren’t we all lol, I highly suggest using Amazon Smile instead! Everything is the same & at no cost to you, Amazon will donate to your charitable organization of choice. I’ve selected Beagle Freedom Project as my organization! You can sign up through here and make sure you turn on Amazon Smile in your app too!
Ibotta – I’ve been using this app for a few years now & while I’m not as consistent at remembering these days it is really easy & the money does add up! Typically I’ll just browse the deals just before or after grocery shopping & then I try to submit my receipt right after putting groceries away. Usually once I earn the minimum to cash out I will either deposit it to our bank account or I’ll send a gift card surprise to someone!
Google Rewards – This is such an easy app & another way to earn free money. Every so often I’ll get notifications to complete a survey that usually takes no more than 1 minute and earn anywhere from 10cents to a dollar depending. Then I use the rewards to occasionally buy a movie or book on the Google Store or more often I have the rewards apply to pay for my subscription to another app.
Libby by Overdrive – I use this app daily! I’ve linked my library card and then can easily access ebooks & audiobooks on my phone from my library. This honestly might be my favorite app ever because it has allowed me to read more books than ever!
Promptly – Typically my Google Rewards money earned covers my subscription for this app! I love Promptly because it is a quick & easy way to document memories & moments. I also love that I can access it via my phone or desktop.
Thrive Market – We have an annual subscription to Thrive to get most of the little snacks that we like to keep on hand in our home as they tend to have the best prices, though I do double check prices because some are actually not cheaper on Thrive! I’ve also been switching to Thrive to check prices on things like beauty products (shampoo, soaps, etc.) and pantry items like ghee, peanut butter, etc. I usually place 1-2 orders a month!
Vitacost – I like to use Vitacost to get our supplements. They also carry foods & healthcare things too so I’ve tried to start checking prices on things between Thrive, Vitacost, & my regular grocery store to find the best deal. I do appreciate that Vitacost does not require a membership.
I use Ibotta and of course Libby, but I might have to try Google Rewards!
Google Rewards is such an easy way to earn free money!
Thanks for sharing your apps! I have Amazon Smile set up to support our local pet rescue group. They cared forr 3 of my dogs before I adopted them. My brother and a few bloggers have mentioned Libby, but I haven’t bit the bullet yet. My hubby is signed up with Honey, which does price comparisons.
That is awesome you can support your local rescue with Amazon Smile!! I’ve heard of Honey, I should check it out.
My mom just told me about Libby- I definitely have to check it out! Thanks for sharing!
I’ll have to look into Libby. You would think given how much I love to read that I would have some reading apps but I really don’t.
