This month I’m going to focus on tips for staying organized and saving money (and your sanity) this holiday season on my Tidy Up Tuesday posts.
Even though Cyber Monday has now come and gone, the online deals are far from over. Today’s post will focus on several ways to find deals online. Most websites offer free shipping deals (good through mid-December) to hook shoppers in and compete with brick-and-mortar stores.
Here are few tips for those of you fishing for deals.
www.craigslist.org – I know this isn’t a new site but it really is a great way to find deals. I’ve had so-so experiences in the past but was tempted to try again this year on a suggestion from a friend when shopping for a Wii for my kids. I posted on the “Items Wanted” section and had a great response from a nice, normal person who gave us a great deal.
www.extrabux.com – This website allows you to compare prices, find coupon codes, and get cash back on your purchases. I’ve never used it but I’ve hear that cash=back websites are the wave of the future.
www.priceprotector.com – If you’ve ever bought something at a great discount and then seen it for less later, then this is the website for you. Just register your item and you’ll receive updates on special offers for that product. You can let them shop around and then price match for the difference if a store beats out the sale price. Either way you’re guaranteed to get what you want at rock-bottom prices.
www.savings.com – This website was recently considered the best website for accurate and up-to-date coupon codes for online shoppers, according to the experts at couponcravings.com. There’s nothing worse than hunting down a coupon code only to find out it 1) doesn’t work or 2) is now expired.
Question: What percentage of your shopping do you do online vs. in-store shopping?
Answer: 50/50 online/instore
