Fatwallet.com
I've used Fat wallet for several years and they've always come though with the small payouts. But, don't try buying a large ticket item. They will find a reason not to pay every time. I had it happen to me twice in a row. Both times, their "investigation" lasted weeks, with the same result: no payment. So, I'm done with them.
Try for yourself, but they're not worth the effort.
Alice.com
Alice.com sells brand name drugstore and nonperishable grocery items at very reasonable prices (with certain items offered at unreasonably low prices). They also have a limited selection of green/organic products and a few premium or high end products. Shipping is free on every order (with a minimum of 6 items). Many of their products have clip free coupons that are automatically deducted from the price when added to your cart. Items ship within a few days and arrive within a few more days (my orders have all been shipped USP).
Some of my recent purchases include Bounty Basic Paper towels...

Rock Auto
I attempted to place an order on the RockAuto.com website this past weekend that resulted in problems that the company was unwilling to admit to or reimburse me for. After selecting the part I wanted to buy, I came to the page requesting my address and billing information. I filled out all the info and clicked the "Place Order" button. I was immediately returned to the same screen with a message saying that something was incorrect, to fix it, and click on the "Place Order" button again. Unsure what was wrong, I tried about 4 times before I gave up. The order was never placed, but 4x the charges...

Overstock.com
I discovered Overstock a couple of years back when I was doing some comparison shopping on some books. If you want to get a book, more than likely, it is way cheaper there than at Amazon.com, which to me, is the biggie in low prices, but then again, if Amazon is the King, then Overstock has got to be the Queen!! because honey, she undercuts them with a no more than $2 shipping fee which for me is such a blessing. Mind you now, you may not get EVERY book you want, and you can also get electronics, clothes, bedding etc, but nine times out of ten, if it's popular, you can get it there for less. I...
review »Edible Arrangements
I got to try the chocolate dipped fruit last week. I got a cute box with 6 chocolate dipped fruit inside. There were 2 strawberries, 3 oranges, and 1 banana. The fruit was good, better than I expected. The chocolate however was the best I'd ever tasted. I really liked the flavor and it really complimented the fruit well.
What I didn't like was the price. I think it was around 14.99 and I just feel that's a bit too expensive. So I'm not sure I'll be buying again but I will surely miss that chocolate! But it would make a nice gift for those that can afford it.
LeatherUp.com
I almost didn't order from this company based on the reviews here. I'm glad I didn't listen. My first order was a pair of gloves and goggles. Great products and the shipping was as fast as anywhere I have shopped online. Next I thought I'd take the leap and order a jacket, risky proposition since the sizing reviews vary wildly even on their website. I reviewed the sizing chart and and went with the reccomendations of one size up. Boom- not even CLOSE!! I thought- okay, here's where we test the customer service aspect. Followed the directions (I have an irritating habit of doing that) and sent it...

FTD
I wish I had read these reviews before I ordered. I will never use FTD again. Ever. Tell all your friends.
Background: I am in the military, and I am away from home a lot as you can imagine. The weekend of this order was my anniversary. I had to go to duty through that period. Now, my wife has cancer... not asking for sympathy, just so you understand how mad this made me.
So I ordered flowers via the FTD website for delivery on the day of our anniversary so she would know I was thinking of her, while she was sick at home from the after effects of chemo. Imagine my surprise when I got home and......

Overstock.com
Overstock.com offers a wide range of products and I really like the categories. Also, the search engine is fantastic! You can search by price, category, sizes, etc. I will admit that some of the prices aren't the best BUT where can you get everyday shipping of less than $3.00 on ANY item without a specific purchase total???? Most sites may give you free shipping on certain items or on the purchase but that's the one great thing about Overstock.com - It's always this way. Shipping and handling is a make-it or break-it deal with me. I have bought a few things from this site and I've...
review »mypoints.com
This is awesome!!! I have been a member for over a year and it's for real!! I have been on other sites where the rewards are either impossible to earn or never arrive. This is not the case here. You do earn points slower if you do not shop on line but you can still earn points other ways. You earn points by taking surveys, reading emails, visiting sites, shopping on line, playing games, referring friends, taking special offers and more. Most people are already shopping on line so you mine as well get something extra for doing it! They offer special sale prices and free shipping offers for mypoints.com...

Rue La La
I had a nightmare of a return with RueLaLa also!! I returned an item and never saw the credit on my account — it was a $249 item!! I kept being told it was a computer glitch… an IT error… they gave me a $10 credit for my troubles and someone would call me back. Nobody ever called me back. I repeatedly called them and they kept saying the same thing — computer glitch, someone will get back with you. I then went to dispute it with AmEx. The first dispute I opened with AmEx was denied after RueLaLa sent them copies of their internal screenshots showing I was credited. I re-opened the dispute...
review »eBay
I LOVE ebay! Ebay has been called the world wide garage sale and it's true.
You can find almost anything on ebay. There are old, vintage items that you discontinued and hard to find. You can find things that are still new in the box and are cheaper than other websites and stores. You can win things for well under the price that it should be.
There is also something fun about going through the auction process with people from all over the world.
Selling on ebay is also a valuable tool to use when you are in need of some extra cash, going through closets and need the space so you decide...

Hautelook
I've gotten so many items from this site @ amazing prices. It always feels good to see something I've bought from HauteLook on another site selling for 70% more than what I paid for it! Shipping takes about 2 weeks, but this is how they can keep their prices low. If you go in knowing how long shipping takes, then the wait for it is not so bad.
BookSwim Book Rental Club
This is one of those "why didn't I think of that?!?!" websites. Just joined up BookSwim.com and got my first batch of books yesterday. Sweeeet.
ebates.com
I have been using this for about 2 years. My first purchase was a " Royal Palace Rug " from QVC - buy going threw Ebates fist the linking onto & purchasing my rug Threw QVC I earned back $ 75.00. I tell everyone about this . It has become a major part of all my shopping
Amazon.com
I have been shopping with Amazon.com for several years now. I love how you can type in just about any product and Amazon has it listed. I can read reviews on products before buying them and comparison shop. The prices are good too and I really love the free shipping on orders over $25.00. Not all items qualify for the super saver shipping, but there are certainly a lot that do! You can also buy used items from private sellers, just be sure that the seller has good ratings!
I have also been selling on Amazon for a few years now as well. It is nice to be able to make a little extra...
