Ever since I was a kid, I've always had such great enthusiasm for back-to-school shopping. Now, as a parent on the flip side of the experience, I want to instill the same excitement while being mindful of our family budget.
This year, I got 100% cash back on back-to-school essentials with Ibotta's Back to School FREE for All deals, and you can score the same great deals* from July 14th through the end of August 2021.
How to get FREE learning supplies with Ibotta
Shopping with the Ibotta app was easier than I expected. Here's a brief overview of how I got my FREE school supplies:
- Download the free Ibotta app.
- Set up your account. Select your favorite stores, link your payment methods, and familiarize yourself with the app.
- Click on the "Back to School Bundle" to find out which products are available near you. Select the items you wish to shop for by clicking on the + symbol.
- Head to the participating retailer and shop for your items. You can use the app's barcode scanner to confirm if products qualify for any Ibotta deals.
- After you've purchased your items, scan the barcode on your receipt within the Ibotta app to redeem the offers.
- Withdraw any of your earnings once you've met the $20 minimum threshold.
Note: We used the Ibotta app in-store at our local Walmart, but you can shop online with the Ibotta browser extension if you prefer grocery pickup or delivery.

What did I buy?
Back-to-school shopping is more than just backpack supplies. In addition to pencils and erasers, we also got a jump start on school lunches with Ibotta deals in the dairy aisle and pantry sections of Walmart.
*Note: All offers were valid as of publishing date. Don’t forget to check your app for details, as offers change frequently and may not be available in all areas.
A single trip to Walmart for back-to-school shopping earned me more than $24 cash back, enough to cover the cost of all items that I purchased. No gimmicks or caveats... my shopping trip was FREE! Plus, I was able to shop and withdraw my earnings within 24 hours.
After last year's unpredictable schooling experience, I am so grateful to count on Ibotta for making this year's school supply shopping so much easier – especially for my wallet!
