There are lots of deals to be had online, only if we knew how. Here are some of my favorite ways of finding online deals.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Computer
  • Internet Connection
  1. Step 1

    Check slickdeals.net regularly. They post a huge number of deals every day.
    If you do not want to visit their web page every day, sign up for deal alerts by going here:
    http://forums.slickdeals.net/dealalerts.php?do=viewdealalerts

  2. Step 2

    Whenever you order online, don't forget to check out http://www.retailmenot.com
    They have a wide variety of coupons for all major online retailers.

  3. Step 3

    Use Live search cashback to earn back a percentage of the money you spend.
    http://search.live.com/cashback

  4. Step 4

    Always do a Google search of the item you want to buy for coupons and sales. For example, if I was planning to buy a Nintendo DS, I would do a Google search of "Nintendo DS Sale" and "Cheap Nintendo DS" and "Nintendo DS coupon" before buying.

  5. Step 5

    Consider buying second hand from ebay.com or craigslist.com
    You can buy rarely used items in good conditions for sometimes upto 60-80% off from these sites.

Tips & Warnings
  • Always use caution if you are meeting up the seller when you are buying from craigslist - choose a public meeting place during the day time.
