Good evening everyone.  I know today was full of Chase Sapphire Reserve chatter, but there is another deal worth mentioning this week.  Ebates is now offering triple cash back (at least 3 times the standard cash back rate) for several merchants.  If you are new to Ebates, you can sign up for a free account (link) and get a $10 bonus after you make your first purchase of $25 or more.  Also worth mentioning, there are currently 26 merchants offering in-store cash back (add a Visa or American Express credit card to your Ebates account, link merchants to the credit card, and earn cash back for in-store purchases).  Depending on your shopping patterns, some of these cash back deals can be very enticing.
