When online shopping, I have learned a great idea for saving money which I would like to share: always search for coupon codes before finalizing your purchase.
Coupon codes are promotional codes provided by the online retailers to entice shoppers to their websites through offering free shipping or a percentage off.
I receive coupon codes in the mail frequently, but don't always have them handy when I need them to enter into the website. So, instead of purchasing the item without the coupon code, I "google" the name of the retailer and the word coupon.
A good example of this would be "googling" the terms "lane bryant coupon" all together (less the quote marks).
When I did this just a moment ago, I received a link to a page from coupon cabin which I have pasted below. It contains various coupon codes which I can use on the Lane Bryant website to save money when making a purchase. (certain limitations do apply, just like in the regular store)
or this one from Coupon Mountain:
It works for many online retailers. Try it out and if you find another great coupon posting website, please let me know!
Until another frugal moment hits,
The Frugal Queen
