A few months ago, I was reordering my checks from Checks in the Mail. As I was checking out, I saw that they had a box for a discount code. I did not have a code, but I decided to open another browser window and see if I could find a code by typing in “Checks in the Mail discount code.” Sure enough, I found one and received $2 off my $14 order.
Just last week, I was purchasing a restaurant.com certificate for a Mexican restaurant my husband and I were going to. The price was $15, which would give us $25 off our order at the restaurant. However, I once again opened another browser window and typed in “restaurant.com discount code” as my search. After opening a few links, many of which had expired codes, I found a valid code, so our certificate that would have cost $15 only ended up costing $6. I saved $9 by taking another minute (if that) to search for a discount code.
If you haven’t tried this, try it. You will be amazed by all the discounts you can find!

I never buy online without searching for coupon codes! Saves a lot of money 🙂
Also, not sure if you use Ebates, but I do and really like them. You find what you want to buy and then click through their site to get cash back. It adds up slowly but surely and then you get a check. I've gotten back a little over $100 fron them so far – very worth it!
LOL– I do this all the time too. Why not save a little extra if you can?
that is a great tip thanks for sharing your secret
