Coupon Codes are your friend!

Wow two in one day after such a long time! This is something that I just had to share!

Coupon Codes are your friend! You're thinking WTF? Read on!

Three times now I've saved money with online orders by googling for coupon codes (sometimes referred to as Promotion Codes). Basically, when you are filling out an online order form with all of your shipping details and whatnot after shopping around a site, there may be a field on one of the pages named "Coupon Code" or "Promotion Code". This is your friend. All you do is open a new browser window or tab, go to google and type in the name of the site you're on and the exact words they use for the field, and hit search. If that isn't fruitful, then try some alternate words for the field (ie. if it's labeled Coupon Code on the site then try Promotion Code/Number or Savings Code/Number). There are entire sites out there dedicated to these codes! Anyway, if you are fruitful in your search, just go back to your other browser window and paste in the code you found and apply it. If it doesn't work, try another. I haven't found a situation where more than one would work on the same order but it doesn't hurt to try right? I've got a free product from one site (it was a useless product, but it was free!), I saved the shipping charges on my cell phone (saved me 20-ish bux) and I've saved 10% on ordering Contacts! (pretty much paid for the shipping there too!)

Anyway, happy saving!

Till next time!
