How to Save Money Online

I love to shop online.  With 6 kids, it isn't easy for me to get out to the store all the time.  Here are some tips for saving money online.
  • Sign up to get e-mails from your favorite stores.  Stores will let you know what sales they are having online and often send coupon codes for you to use.
  • Use a cash-back website like fatwallet.com to get a small percentage of your purchase back.  Some websites get paid to bring traffic and orders to their site and will give you part of that money.  My fatwallet is my favorite cash-back site, but there are a lot of them out there.
  • Buy from stores that allow you to return items in-store.  That way if something goes wrong with the order or you want to return something, you don't have to pay for return shipping.  I like to look for free shipping codes to use so that I don't lose out on the cost of shipping.  Most stores will not refund the cost of shipping an item.
  • Check out slickdeals.net for great online deals listed daily.
