eCoupons

A quick note for those that like to shop online (and for those that don’t, you are not fit to wear the “frugal” name). Always remember to do a quick search for online coupons before you checkout. I was shopping at Sports Authority today after I found out that my local Sport Authority would still string my tennis racket for free if I bought my strings off the website. Normally, I purchase the strings at the store, but the website had a closeout deal on $18 strings marked down to $5 (needless to say, I bought a couple). I also found some fancy new Adidas golf shoes (on sale…of course) and an inflatable pool for the Frugal Family to escape the summer heat. Before you knew it, I had run up a triple digit bill. As I was getting ready to checkout, I noticed the little box for coupon codes. A quick search for “sports authority coupons” directed me to Coupon Cabin where I found a 15% off coupon. A mouse click later, I was back at the Sports Authority checkout with a slightly fatter wallet for my troubles.

Ciao,
Franco

Great tip! I always neglect to go "looking" for coupons. I tend to wait for them to be sent to me.
