Save on Gifts With Online Coupons
Having survived another holiday season (and thoroughly enjoyed it!), it's time to start thinking about gifts again. As I've admitted here before, I'm not the world's greatest gift-giver. Not even close. But I do try to give gifts that are a bit unique. Sometimes that means I get reactions like "What the hell is it?" or "What am I supposed to do with that?" Other times I get somebody something they hadn't seen, or even thought of, before but that they instantly fall in love with or decide they don't know how they managed to live without it. Those times are rare, but I'm getting better.
One way I look for unique or unusual gifts online is to spend a lot of time checking out small "mom and pop" type online stores. Another way is to use the big shopping portals to find online stores I haven't seen before. One type of shopping portal I really like are the coupon sites, and because different coupon sites feature different stores, I tend to keep quite a few of them bookmarked -- CouponChief, FatWallet, CouponCabin, etc. Using coupon sites helps me find really cool gifts and save a few bucks at the same time.
For example, CouponChief keeps me up-to-date on potential savings from some of my favourite sources of great gifts -- Adagio Tea coupons, Figis.com discounts, and great deals at Solutions.com.
Using coupon sites, price comparison sites, and product and merchant review sites are all great ways to find new products and online shops that you might never have discovered otherwise. And in many cases, they can help you save a few dollars as well. Keeping a few in your bookmarks, or even throwing together a little personal links page (online or offline), is a good idea.
Disclosure: CouponChief is paying me (through PayPerPost.com) to talk about their site. But they don't pay me to use their site to find great deals at sites like Gaiam, Books-a-Million, Alsto's, Cyberguys, or HenryFields. It would be totally cool if they did, though.
