About two weeks ago I downloaded an app to my Iphone called "MobiSave" (sorry Droid users, it's only iphone right now).

It lists grocery and household products eligible for $1/back. You just snap a picture of your receipt after you shop and you get reimbursed via paypal (so use whatever email you use for paypal to sign up your acct with the app). There several sales coming up at CVS that coincide with this app making them money makers in some cases. Right now it's unlimited, once they remove the item from your cart (meaning you've redeemed it), you can add it back in. (You can't buy two of a like item though and get reimbursed twice, it's once per receipt if that makes sense).

For the last couple of weeks I've been getting unlimited free Bumble Bee tuna, Snapple, Yoplait, Barilla pasta and more. You can use coupons against the products.

Also of interest to this board...there is $1/Charmin, $1/Colgate and $1/Huggies. I submitted a receipt for a free huggies redemption at CVS and got my $1 back within a couple of hours.

I will validate that they really do pay you back quite quickly--usually within 24 hours. It seems too good to be true, so I've been trying to get while the gettin' is good!

I have an Android phone but my mom has an iPad!! Do you have to register before you buy it or can the receipts be dated before you sign up?

[coffeewench]

I'm pretty sure it's 1.add item(s) to your mobisave cart, 2. buy the item(s) 3. scan receipt.

But I haven't tried an older one so I can't say for sure.

So if I buy 11 Charmin in 11 transactions (not going to, just asking ) I'll get $11 PP?

Edited: Yes, if you did 11 separate transactions you would get $11 back .

[coffeewench]

Now if you purchased 11 different Mobisave items on one receipt you'd get $11 in one transaction.

[coffeewench]

Oh whoops sorry you did say 11 transactions (I need my glasses) . So your answer is yes.

[coffeewench]

I also love this app because you can use it at places you wouldn't traditionally be able to coupon at --Big Lots, Grocery Outlet, etc. You can submit a receipt from ANY store.

I've been getting free Pillsbury Grand Biscuits because they're .99 at Grocery Outlet right now and $1/1 on Mobisave.

Booo. I have a droid too. Sounds really good though!

[coffeewench]

I'm sure it's only a matter of time until they expand to Droid. If you have an Ipod touch with wireless (to upload receipts) you might be able to use it?

[princess_skrappy]

would it work on I POD??

[princess_skrappy]

LOL Thats funny, you typed that as I did!

[missdanalu]

I don't think our Touch has a camera. I can take a picture with my phone, email it to myself, put the picture on the Touch and then submit it.

Hmmm...

It wouldn't work without the camera. The app has a native scanning program in it that doesn't allow you to choose from a photo album.

Here is info about the app, hope this is okay to link to:

MobiSave | Shop.Snap.Save

I'm going to download it and try it now. Can't hurt to at least try it, but you're right, it does seem too good to be true, !!

It does seem too good to be true! However, since they have paid me over $50 over the last week and a half, I know it's legit and I'm going to ride it out as long as I can .

[yay4coupons]

Wow!! I will definitely hop on my moms iPad before my Saturday trip and do it. I am getting Huggies, Charmin and Bumblebee so it's worth a shot!!

And if Pillsbury is included that'd be cool! The coupons for those items suck

[missdanalu]

One last question can you submit the receipts back to back or do you have to wait in between?

[coffeewench]

There is $1/Pillsbury (ANY), $1/Tide, $1/Cascade...really amazing coupons.

You can submit them one after the other but you do need to give some time for the item to be removed from your cart, otherwise the computer will get confused and overlook it on the receipt.

You're basically (by virtue of clicking the coupon into your cart) telling the computer which products to search for on your reciept. Once it finds it, it deletes it from your cart. This process takes a bit of time, especially if the computer misses it and you have to manually enter it.

It has it's glitches, but overall it's been VERY WORTH IT.
