Some things in life sound too good to be true, like earning money for buying your childhood (or, ahem, college hangover) favorite — mac ’n cheese.

We know. We know. As an adult, it’s kind of gross when you really think about that orange powdered cheese, but it’s so worth the nostalgia.

Oh, and you can get an Amazon gift card just for buying some.

Yep — the Fetch Rewards app will give you points toward a free Amazon gift card when you stock up on Kraft mac ’n cheese — or any other grocery essentials for that matter.

Just snap a photo of your receipt. That’s it! No clipping coupons. No claiming offers. No surveys. No barcodes.

Sooo… Want to Get Paid for Buying Kraft Mac ’n Cheese?

With Fetch Rewards, you’ll earn points for scanning any receipt, no matter what you purchase — and no matter what grocery store you purchase it from. Super simple.

You’ll earn even more points when you buy specific brands and products, including Kraft, Klondike, Oscar Mayer, Huggies and more than 200 other brands you likely already buy.

Here’s how to get started:

  1. Download the Fetch Rewards app (available for iPhone and Androids users).
  2. Create your account. You just need the basics — no credit card information or anything super personal!
  3. Enter code PENNY when it asks for a referral code. This will get you an extra 2,000 points once you take a photo of your first receipt.
  4. After your next grocery run (at any store), snap a photo of your receipt to collect your points.

How to Get Your Points

The points you earn per receipt vary, depending on what (and how much) you purchase. Promoted brands and products earn you more — as much as 5,000 points for one item.

Once you collect 3,000 points (they add up fast!), pocket a $3 gift card to popular retailers, including Amazon, Kohl’s and Target. Or, save up your points for higher value gift cards.

Just remember: Fetch rejects receipts more than 14 days old, so don’t forget to take that picture! You’re basically throwing away free gift cards if you don’t.

Sign up with Fetch to get started.

And let’s be real. You can use those gift cards you earn to buy even more mac ’n cheese, and that makes us feel all warm and cheesy inside.
