I had not thought about joining ebates until yesterday. I don't do a lot of buying except for essentials (you know food, gas, fabric). I wrongly assumed the kind of stores I shop would not be included. I have a Christmas check that I have finally decided to use and a commercial for ebates was on TV, so I thought I would check it out. I was pleased to see both Joanns and Hancocks included. So I will be exploring this site a lot more.
