After a year of practically being in PJs, and makeup not being too much in use, it’s time to refresh our wardrobe and beauty products a little to get excited again. We deserve it, you know?
One rule is, I never pay full price, as I always have gift cards to spend on practically anything. Here’s how I get free Target, Sephora, and more gift cards to buy what I want!
How to Get Free Gift Cards for Anything
You can get free gift cards just by collecting all your shopping, restaurant, grocery, basically almost any receipt, even digital ones, and uploading them to an amazing free app called Fetch Rewards. You’ll never delete this app, I swear.
It’s super simple since it’s not like other savings app where you have to scan barcodes or clip coupons. Fetch Rewards will automatically give you points to redeem for gift cards on eligible receipts just by taking a picture.
For example, I tend to keep every receipt I come across (even when they’re not mine) and upload them into Fetch Rewards before I toss them. After I get the points for each, then the receipt’s purpose is done!
It’s easy:
- Download Fetch Rewards
- Upload any receipt to get points
- Redeem points for Target, Sephora, Amazon, and plenty more gift cards
- Use those gift cards to get the newest item(s) you’ve been eyeing!
Time to start checking off things from your wishlist.
Types of Receipts
You can scan any receipt from a grocery store, convenience store, drug store, club store, cafes, restaurant, practically everywhere, regardless of the amount purchased.
Important: Receipts must be scanned within 14 days from purchase and must include the store name, items purchased, date of purchase, total amount, and store address. Any eligible grocery receipt will get you 25 points each! Other types of receipt points can vary.
You can even have the app scan for any digital receipts in your inbox which comes in handy for all those Amazon, Best Buy, Instacart, Target, Walmart, and more, e-receipts.
Redeeming Points for Free Gift Cards
It can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours to receive your points once you have scanned a receipt but in my experience, it’s usually pretty quick.
Once you reach a minimum of 3,000 points, you can head to the “Rewards” section of the app. There, you’re able to browse hundreds of different reward options by category. Available rewards include gift cards to popular retailers like Amazon, Sephora, Ulta, Target, CVS, and more.
Once you find a reward to redeem, tap the “Get This Reward” button and you’ll be sent your electronic gift. Then use that electronic e-gift code online for your beauty products!
What You Need to Know Before Using Fetch
For new users, you’ll automatically get 2,000 Welcome Bonus Points from The Smart Wallet on your first receipt! You’ll see the promo code REWARD already filled in.
Just remember to ask your family and friends to help save receipts for you and you’ll have to upload them to the app within 14 days of the receipt purchase. By uploading receipts of stuff you were already going to buy, you’ll consistently be earning points to redeem for free stuff
