Online coupons; they are everywhere. The weirdest thing (in my opinion) is that not everybody takes advantage of the savings.
Why would you pay more for something when you can get it for less?
It’s not like it takes a long time to find an online coupon, really it’s usually just a couple of minutes for me. What if 2 minutes could save you 10% on a purchase? Would it be worth it?
Whether it’s an online coupon for dollars off, a percentage off or free shipping, it’s still saving you money. So isn’t it worth a couple of minutes here and there to save a few extra bucks with each purchase?
Whether you are buying clothes, there are coupons available out there such as Nike coupons, eBay coupons which are found everywhere online.
Of course not all online stores give out coupons codes, but so many of them do. Remember, small savings adds up over time—that’s how I got to where I am today.
Are you saving money with online coupons? Or are you paying more for things than you need to? What could you do with the extra savings?
All it takes to save money with online coupons, is a quick search for the store and then you just click on a link. Really, it can be that easy. Then you save money…what’s not to love about the simplicity of that?
What if you don’t care about saving money? Or what if you want to save money and help others at the same time? Well, it’s your lucky day.
I recently became acquainted with an online coupon site (Save1.com) that donates a meal to a hungry child with each online purchase you make. I think that is beyond awesome.
For every online purchase you make, you can save money with an online coupon—plus you can feed a hungry child. This is a great way to help others, especially for those who cannot afford to give.
Are you using online coupons to save money or give back?
I’ve been hearing a lot about Save1 lately, sounds like a great company!

In addition to using shopping bots to get the lowest prices, I routinely check for coupons. Besides saving the sales tax, I generally can save anywhere from 5-50% compared to retail.

I’ve never tried out any shopping bots before, are they some you would recommend?

Before I buy anything online, I check to see if there is a coupon or promo discount code I can use, and almost every time there is! As they say, a dollar saved is a dollar earned!

I don’t purchase anything online before I go around to check for a coupon. I would feel upset if I didn’t get a coupon or at least check. Save1 sounds like a pretty cool concept.

It really does, I love being able to help others. Usually we just donate clothing, food and personal care items.

I definitely don’t take advantage of online coupons as much as I should. Occasionally I use a coupon code I come across on Facebook but I don’t actively seek them out. Thanks for providing that website, I will check it out!

I never heard of save1 but am going to look into it. I primarily use the Ibotta app for saving money on groceries in addition to coupons. For other online purchases, I hit up some of the popular coupon sites to find codes.

I’m a big fan of Ibotta too. I wish they would have a lot more offers at once, but I’m sure they will as they become more popular.

I have been making a point of searching more for online and printable coupons lately. It really is amazing how little effort it takes to save a respectable amount of money!
Alex recently posted..Laughter and Assorted other Happy Thoughts
Exactly. It’s easier to look for the coupon codes or even printable coupons from a store. You can enjoy great savings too. You don’t have to be an extreme couponer since they’re easy to find.

I’ve never heard of Save1, I’ll have to check them out. I use online coupons as much as I can. It makes no sense to me not to try when you can generally find something. My favorite is to get free shipping as that can be such a big percentage of the overall bill.
John S @ Frugal Rules recently posted..Carnival of Passive Investing #27
I love getting free shipping too, but I hate it when you have to spend more to get to it. Sometimes it just doesn’t make much sense.
Jen Perkins recently posted..Saving Money Isn’t Always Easy
I don’t and there is no other reason for that than general lack of organisation. I suppose that I have been operating at such level of commitment (work) for so long that anything, even 2 minutes, seems like a great effort. Another reason is that I tried Groupon and had very bad experience. Were I to link using coupons with something worthwhile – e.g. providing a meal for a child – I’ll probably find it easier but there is nothing like that in the UK that I know of. Off to check

I always give a quick search for coupon codes before I checkout when shopping online, but I really don’t put much time or effort into it.

I have heard of Save1 and I think their concept is a great advocacy. I normally do my shopping online so I visit their site regularly and purchase coupons. Not only that I save money from the coupons but I also contribute to help feed the hungry children, no matter how small the amount is.

My fiance and I are huge on coupons! You should see us at Bed Bath and Beyond, we have coupons that we got from back in 2008 (interestingly they take coupons nearly 10 years old!). My personal favorite is redplum.com, you can find all the coupons your heart desires without ever getting up from your computer 😉

I hang on to all their coupons too, I love that they’ll always except them.
