The holidays are approaching and many of us are preparing our gift list! With tight budgets this year, follow my tips to help save money shopping online.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    If you participate in Upromise (see article in the Resource section below), be sure to use the links on their site for all of your online shopping.

  2. Step 2

    Help save money for charity by shopping through www.goodshop.com and choosing a charity of your choice (see article in the Resource section below).

  3. Step 3

    Before you check out of any online shopping site, be sure to search for coupon codes. Simply type the name of the retailer followed by coupon codes (LLBean coupon codes). This search should take you to sites such as couponmountain.com and couponcabin.com, etc. You can do the same to find free shipping codes. You can usually save between 10-25% on your purchase!

  4. Step 4

    If you are military (active, reserve, retired, or a family member) always ask retailers for if they offer a military discount. You would be surprised how many will give you a 10% discount! (see article in the Resource section below).

Tips & Warnings
  • Especially during the holidays, many sites offer free shipping so pay attention to those emails that come through and take advantage of the promotions!
