Who doesn't LOVE to save money?
One of the best-kept secrets on the web: Online stores have sales and specials all the time that not all customers are aware of! You might not know about these unadvertised coupons and discounts even if you have a store credit card, or are signed up to an account on the store's website.
There are several good websites available that keep track of current discounts and specials, and you should be checking these websites before you make an online purchase if you want the best deal you can get!
The sites I list here are free, and most allow you to personalize the service-- even having them regularly e-mail you specials and discounts from your list of favorite stores. Shop around and keep track with these tools, and never pay full price again!
My Current Favorite: RetailMeNot.com
This has been the luckiest search site for me lately.Out with the old....
...or "I am so over Big Crumbs"
I am no longer recommending the BigCrumbs site. I used it for a couple years and never made more than a few cents a month.
I'm on to something bigger and better....
EBATES!
If you regularly shop online, you should be shopping through a site that will give you rebates for shopping at your favorite stores! In just the few months that I've been regularly using EBATES, I've already gotten more money back than I ever did in a couple years on Big Crumbs!Once you sign up, don't forget to use it!
My hack: Delete your current bookmarks or favorite links to eBay, Old Navy, Target, etc. Replace them with links to the same stores through EBATES. That way you don't have to think about it-- you click on your usual bookmark, it shows you an EBATES page for about a second, then it takes you to your shopping destination through EBATES. You shop as usual, you end up with money back in your PayPal account. It really couldn't be easier!
Featured Fun Find: Couponlooker!
According to their site, "couponlooker.com is a unique search engine that pulls together all the best coupons on the web so that you'll never miss out on a deal again."I haven't tested it much (as in, does it really grab coupons from all the coupon sites I know?) but give it a try for yourself!
Click the link, type the store you want to shop into the search box, and see what you come up with. (If I were really serious about finding a coupon for my purchase, I'd still check other sites below, just to be sure....)

- It is best to look for a lot of great coupons to save. But there are sites that presented some coupons but they are not authentic. I rather have to really check the promo codes and online coupons in my website, www.couponsaver.org. I need to help people get what they really want.

- Yeah -- thank you for adding this guestbook first of all. I think people these days are thinking coupons more now than ever before -- when we visited some friends of ours for a Saturday night pizza party, I found it more than a little interesting that they had gotten into coupons. And, the fact that they were telling US, who have been coupon people for years, to use the internet to find coupons. If I ever pay full price, I'm getting tired or lazy!
