If you’ve read this site for any length of time, you know how much I love the PerkStreet checking account ^[2] for its cash back rewards programs, its no-fee approach, and its ease of use. One of the great things about this unique bank is its commitment ^[3] to rewarding customers everyday and its commitment ^[3] to “mix it up” a bit and let customers actually VOTE on which merchants they can shop for up to FIVE PERCENT CASH BACK. Well here is what other PerkStreet ^[2] customers voted on for the month of May 2012:

Now get 5% cash back at:

Zappos – sandals, rain boots, hiking boots, tennis shoes – you name it, Zappos has it and for the month of May, you get 5% cash back when you use your PerkStreet ^[2] Debit Mastercard.

The Sports Authority – with May comes fishing, canoeing, camping, and all sorts of sports events. I’m about to head to my son’s Little League game myself. You can either buy from their website or at one of their physical stores. Either way, you’ll still earn 5% cash back in YOUR pocket rather than that stodgy old banker’s (read How to Switch Banks in Six Easy Steps ^[4]).

Williams-Sonoma - inspire those tired old recipes, add some color to the table, or improve your morning coffee efficiency with an online purchase or by visiting one of their 250+ stores nationwide. While there, don’t forget to think of the special Moms and graduates in your life. Mixing bowls and soup pots go a long way, regardless of your phase of life.

Hallmark – don’t forget Mother’s Day on May 13 and all those graduations before, during, and after. My oldest daughter graduated from high school and two of my nephews graduate college so getting 5% cash back from Hallmark will come in handy for me.

If you’d like the opportunity to VOTE on the 5% cash back as well as get 1% to 2% cash back every day, head on over to PerkStreet ^[2] and set up your account. It’s fast, easy, and … rewarding.
