Hey! Someone in my Facebook group shared this website with us so I came to take a look. I’m definitely loving the information. I’m book-marking and will be tweeting this to my followers! Fantastic blog and amazing style and design.
I’m really impressed with your writing skills and also with the structure to your blog. Is that this a paid topic or did you customize it your self? Anyway stay up the nice quality writing, it’s rare to look a great weblog like this one these days..
Amazon is my favorite one..but I didn’t know there is so many other programs that can help to save money when we shop. Going to sign up with some of them. Thanks for sharing.
I have eBates and Amazon Prime Rewards and while I don’t remember to use eBates, Amazon is a regular for me. I will check out the others as they would come in handy when I need additional discounts.
I’ve been seriously considering getting an Amazon Prime Card.. Now I just might have to – Thanks!
I love Topcashback besides Rakuten, because they offer sometimes even better cashback. Thank you for these tips! I just got the Amazon card and loving it.
This is great info! I did not know about some of these before. Thank you so much for sharing.
Too many ads took away from the pleasure of reading your blog. But nice article and good tips.
This is such great info. I’m already an Amazon Prime member but will check into their credit card and the Be Frugal app.
I’ve used CouponCabin, but none of the other sites. Thank you for this information.
Very useful tips. I would definitely give it a try. Thank you. 🙂
Oh wow! I must look into the Amazon card, thanks for the tip.
It’s crazy how many savings programs there are out there! I have trouble even keeping track of all of them. Thanks for this list.
Thanks for the tips! We love Amazon Prime!
I love online shopping because of all the savings too! I have heard of some of those options but not others like Honey. I will have to check it out!
Ah OMG! You’re the best…I’m def looking into these right away…thank you :*
That Amazon Prime Rewards Card is absolutely amazing! I use mine all the time and I save so much in return!
I know I should be doing more things like that. I have a hard time just signing up for all those things but I know that if I did I would be saving a ton of money.
This is very interesting. Every gal’s dream. Will have to look more into this!
SINCERELY OPHELIA

I use ebates but its really only good on my computer because my browser reminds me to login. When on my phone and apps I do not get the notifications. It would be nice to buy everything online but its not possible for some stuff.
I have used a couple of these apps. Another one I like is ibotta.
I have grown very knowledgeable shopping online over the last two years. Living in Korea and not being tiny boned, shopping online is the only way I can find clothes that fit.
Awesome! I’m all about saving money, and living in the sticks I like to shop online. Thank you! I hadn’t heard of a few of these.
I’ve been hearing a lot about Topcashback and I’ve never tried them eventhough I do a lot of shopping online. The benefit sounds very awesome. I must try it soon!
An eye opening read !
Great tips. So many of us shop online now. We need to be more savvy about it, as the retailers are saving and making money through the huge surge in online shopping.
I’ve not heard of the amazon card, will look into it straightaway!
I just love this, thank you! I do have that Amazon card–I love it! I’ve already earned so many points for gift cards.
This is seriously interesting! Didn’t know about before, I’ll sure check for it!
Useful post
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for tips
I just recently became a HUGE fan of online shopping! And you can’t go wrong with saving money 🙂 Thanks for the tips, I will be definitely checking these out!
I do almost all of my shopping on line. It is too people-y to shop in stores. I also love Beatles and Groupon.
I have been considering signing up for Amazon Prime, but haven’t yet. This was just the boot I need 🙂
Thanks for the tips. I love to shop online and will have to try some of these ideas out.
Ooo this are all great tips. I just downloaded honey and am really excited to see what discounts it finds for me! Thanks for sharing, this is so helpful!
Interesting ? how about border taxes?
I love honey, but I haven’t try the other coupon sites yet. Thanks for the tip 🙂
I signed up for Be Frugal and Top Cash Back! 🙂
How do these compare to Rakuten? I’ve been using Rakuten for awhile now and I’m in love with how they work, but it’s still great to get some savings from them. What are the big differences between these three? Thanks!
TopCashBack is suppose to have the highest cash back rates but befrugal also claims they do. I believe they both have about the same but are BOTH higher than ebates. But ebates gives you the most money for referrals. Try them all and you won’t lose ;).
Oh gosh, Amazon always gets to me! haha!
Nicely written! Thanks for the tips, will be very useful!!
