Coupon Clipper or Discont Code User?

I have never been a coupon clipper. I admire people who save tons on their grocery bill by using coupons. That isn't me. I've never been that disciplined.

Once again I say YIPPEE for the internet.  Now when I'm shopping online, I can just Google the name of the company and coupon code or discount code.  Just got to http://www.google.com/ and enter your info (i.e. DSW coupon code). The search will return a bunch of sites that contain codes posted by shoppers. It will return sites like; Retail Me Not and Coupon Cabin. Some of the codes listed will work and some won't. A few of the sites will list the expiration date of the code.

Once I select my items I try the code.  The site will let you know if it works. Many times you'll get multiple codes. Of course I always try the biggest discount first.  Some web stores (like DSW) will accept more than one code for additional discounts.



My latest discount find was 20% off of my order at shoes.com.  The site advertised 15% off on their header but I took a chance and did a search.  I found a 20% off coupon and got an additional $5 off of my order. They were already offering free shipping.  As most of you know I hate to pay for shipping.  Most sites offer free shipping at one time or another. This is especially great if you do lots of internet holiday shopping.

Happy Discounting and Shopping!!
