1. Shop according to sale flyers
- Easy to do, no coupons or newspaper subscription required.
- Sale price + coupons = major deals.
- There are many different sources for coupons.
- With the exception of food, beauty supplies, and basic housewares most items can be found for less online, especially electronics.
- This isn't for everyone, but you can buy gently used items for very cost little compared to retail.
- When you buy online cashback programs will earn you 1-10% of the amount you spend, hey, I love free money! I earned over $100 in cashback in the 6 months I used bing (now discontinued) while buying items I needed.
- Sign up for multiple sites, always refer to the different cash back sites, to see who is offering the highest % at that time. During holidays you are more likely to find a higher percentage offered.
- Fatwallet, ebates, Swagbucks (if you signup, please use these links so I can be credited as your referrer)
- Second to cashback, I {heart} swagbucks! They are totally legit, and in just a few months use I have scored $25 in free amazon gift certificates! All you have to do is register and use their search engine to periodically earn "swagbucks". Swagbucks (SB) can be redeemed in their store for all sorts of goodies. Also, if you refer a friend, you earn points as they earn points! Register here.
- Walgreens and CVS have programs that enable you to get tons of freebies, and often pay you to shop.
