How to Find Online Shopping Deals

 Online shopping has redefined the word "convenience" to many shoppers out there. Say good bye to snobby sales associates, crowds at malls and stores, searching for parking, and carrying heavy purchases. With the ability to shop online becoming more prevalent, it is important to know how you can find the best deal without having to pay a hefty price for the luxury of shopping, all within the comfort of your own home.

1. Sign up for e-mail newsletters. This is the best way to be notified of exclusive online sales and discounts.
2. Search for coupon codes using search engines such as Google, Yahoo!, or Bing.
3. Search for the product itself, too. You might be able to find the item selling for cheaper through another merchant.
   Say if you were looking for a Guess shirt, it may be cheaper at Macy's than Guess. Or if you're looking for a Logitech keyboard, it may be cheaper at Buy.com or Fry's than Logitech. Amazon is also one such merchant.
4. Look for deal websites that may have listed a coupon or deal of your product.
5. Try: spoofee.com, fatwallet.com, bensbargains.net, slickdeals.netMake purchases through websites that give you cash back by linking to stores through their websites. If you go to evreward.com and enter the name of the merchant you are shopping at, it will list all the sites that give you cash back and the percent you will earn.
   
   
6. Some credit card companies also do something similar. Sometimes if you link to a store through the credit card website, (e.g. ShopDiscover) you will receive cash back. Also check all of your cards to see if there is a discount or certain percentage cash back for using the card at a specific store.
