Holey - Moley! Will wonders never cease!? (wow, I sound like my grandmother :-(

I can't believe I'm 47 years old, spend most of my free time on the computer...and I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THESE WONDERFUL WEBSITES!

I'm not sure I'm ever going to leave my house again!!

Oh, I have to go to work everyday...and pick my daughter up from school...attend school functions...

O.k., I'll leave my house...but not to go shopping

Here's another way to knock a few bucks off the monthly tab. I was reluctant at first to do it, but I quit the newspaper subscriptions completely. I can read the papers I care about online with free subscriptions anyway. My biggest issue with them was hauling all of it out to the curb every week.

If you're worried about missing the Sunday inserts, check this out:
http://www.sundaysaver.com/

Sometimes there are online-only deals that are really very good. Many stores offer free shipping to the store of your choice and accept any returns right in the store (no return shipping hassle/cost).

This is fiscally, physically, and environmentally responsible to boot!

I'm a drugstore.com shopper too! Yes, I do save by shopping there. I get my lotion from there as no one in town seems to have it - well at least those close by.

It is so dry here that sometimes you can actually feel the moisture being sucked from your skin. No joke. 8% humidity will do that to you. Nivea Nighttime Renewal is the best lotion I have found for extremely dry skin. So, I order it from drugstore.com.

I have not ordered anything from Amazon yet. A while ago a friend of mine with MS told me about how some of our local grocery stores deliver. She does this all the time as she lives on the far outskirts of town. There is a delivery charge which I am sure has gone up since the gas prices have gone up. So I did some checking in to other options - Amazon. Their prices were comparable if not cheaper than the stores.

I recently canceled my weekend paper so this is a good one, thanks! My market isn't there but I do check their circular online every week. I also check out www.smartsource.com for regular coupons. They don't have everything my weekend paper used to have but at least some of them are there.

And here's one more I use on a regular basis:

www.retailmenot.com

OT: They have a sister site, www.bugmenot.com that you can often find passwords on for sites you have to register for AND there's a temporary (it expires quickly) free email address you can set up if you need to register for something and don't want to get spammed.

Isn't that what Yahoo! and Hotmail are for?

I've abandoned that ardous registration process in favor of bugmenot, which has none. Put in an address and you're good to go! (I think for 24 hours.)

A few more good sites: www.slickdeals.net and www.dealtaker.com

I use them for freebies but they have a lot of coupon codes and deals.

Wow - this is such good information on all these sites - I wish we could get a sticky posted for "money saving tips".

I for one and going to go through all these sites and take a look when I have more time.

I am staying home more and more to save money and as I mentioned somewhere - everytime I go out - I end up getting more than intended and I used to get away with that without too much $$$$$$ - not anymore.

I am going to use more online services and save gas, save spending $$$ don't need to spend and just enjoy my home more. I do love where I live so much - small condo that it is.


Is a sticky possible ????
