If you shop online, Active Junky should be your home page. At the very least, bookmark us, add us to your favorites, or get our URL tattooed on the back of your hand so that you never forget to use our site. Why? Well, when you log in to Active Junky, click through to one of our 900+ partner retailers, and make a purchase, you earn Cash Back, which we pay quarterly via check or PayPal. Long story short, we help you save serious moola.
We are, at heart, an outdoor site—our founder started this business over a decade ago as a newsletter to help outdoor enthusiasts score cheap gear. We’ve since built a loyal following of adrenaline junkies who regularly use our site to nab the best deals on outdoor gear and sports equipment from outstanding retailers like Patagonia, Backcountry, Moosejaw, and more. But over time, we’ve steadily expanded our roster of retailers, and we now partner with hundreds of great stores that have little to do with the great outdoors.
Active Junky members are quick to use our site to purchase a new mountain bike or backpacking tent, but they sometimes forget to explore our constantly expanding network of stores if they need a razor, laptop, table saw, or case of wine. So consider this a Public Savings Announcement: all of those items and much, much more are available through Active Junky. Health and beauty? We’ve gotcha covered. Office and tech? Check! Home and garden? Yup. Travel? No problem—book cheaper flights and hotels when you start your search at Active Junky. Quite frankly, we don’t discriminate when it comes to saving you dough.
Given the current COVID-19 crisis, online shopping is more prevalent than ever: not only do we want to avoid taking trips to the store at all costs, but saving money is also a top priority. Keeping that in mind, we’ve compiled a list of 15 stores that you might not expect to find on Active Junky. These aren’t outdoor-specific stores—we’re talking about name-brand retailers and online heavyweights like Apple, Office Depot, The Container Store, GameStop, and more.
Finding a discount on Apple is trickier than finding a Honey Crisp in a barrel full of Braeburns. Terrible apple jokes aside, Active Junky members earn Cash Back when shopping for eligible Apple products, which include Apple Watches, Airpods, Airpods Pro, Beats Headphones, and the new iPod Touch.
You don’t need to be a sommelier to know that wine (any kind of wine, really) pairs well with quarantine. Get your go-to wines delivered straight to your door, or explore Wine.com’s virtual cellar by varietal, region, and rating to find new favorites. One bottle probably isn’t going to cut it—we recommend stocking up with at least a case. Maybe two. Matter of fact, make that three, please.
Travel might not be in our immediate future right now, but that doesn’t mean we can’t dream. Active Junky members who shop at Expedia earn Cash Back on qualifying hotels, air travel, rental cars, and cruises.
Thanks to quarantine, it seems like everyone is working from home these days. Office Depot & OfficeMax will help you outfit your home office with furniture, monitors, and printers, not to mention stock up on everyday essentials like ink, paper, pens, and more.
These guys make real good coffee. We love their whole line up of products. Buying in bulk and getting cash back from Active Junky helps us justify the price to keep our addiction to coffee going.
Need business cards? A sign for your business? What about custom-printed t-shirts or greeting cards? Vistaprint handles all of those needs and more. And best of all, they offer serious Cash Back through Active Junky.
Simply put, cars are needy. Whether you want to remedy mechanical problems, purchase a discounted part, or wash and detail your car after a muddy camping trip, Advance Auto Parts will help you keep your car sleek, up-to-speed, and satisfied.
To those of us who are organizationally obsessed, the Container Store is heaven. The only downside? Those containers run steep. Save dough on your next online box bender when you start your search at Active Junky.
Video games are a must to make it through quarantine. Snag a console, some new games, or even a TV from GameStop—and earn Cash Back from Active Junky in the process.
Facial hair running wild during quarantine? Tame overgrown mustaches and scruffy neckbeards with a quick stop at Dollar Shave Club. While Dollar Shave Club is known for their affordable yet high-quality razors, they can walk you through the rest of your grooming regimen, too. From shampoos and conditioners to pomades and toothpastes, the Dollar Shave Club will get you dialed. As always, start your search at Active Junky and you’ll shave money.
Treats and toys are essential services—just ask your dog. Active Junky members who shop at Petco save money on any and all things pet related: we’re talking food, beds, crates, leashes—the list goes on and on. You can even earn Cash Back at the Petco Pharmacy when you buy flea and tick treatments, antibiotics, heartworm medication, and more.
Groupon is a discount site. We are offering a discount on a discount site. We assume your mind is now blown. You’re welcome.
Saks Fifth Avenue stores may be closed at the moment, but they’re open for business online. Maybe you’re in need of some new shoes, or perhaps a fresh outfit will keep you looking sharp in your next Zoom meeting. Either way, shopping sprees that start with Active Junky save you money down the line.
Mega-brand Microsoft is best known for its revolutionary software, but it's also the brains behind Xbox, a myriad of video games, and an impressive line of Surface laptops and tablets.

Overstock peddles everything from furniture and bedding to kitchen appliances and trampolines—oftentimes at an extreme discount. If the above stores haven’t had what you’re looking for, chances are that Overstock will.
Active Junky will always be an outdoor brand, but deeper than that, we’ve always had one main goal, and that’s to save you money. Maybe getting an “ActiveJunky.com” tattoo is out of the question, and that’s OK. Truth be told, we just want to make sure that you never miss out on savings when you shop online.
But if you do end up getting an “ActiveJunky.com” tattoo, please send us a picture. We’d love to see it.
