Free shipping can be hard to find at some of the big retail stores where the best deals can be had. I am in love with the fact I have found free shipping coupons for Best Buy!!! The main reason I love shopping online is being able to do comparison shopping!! It is so easy to open multiple tabs to compare prices, specs and reviews side by side! Shopping for electronics can be expensive and very time consuming!!! With three kids it’s also a huge pain to accomplish and most of the time you don’t feel successful at getting the best deal and the correct equipment!
Now Christmas is coming so these are great ways to be sure you are saving the most with your money!! And as well as the holidays are prime time to grab new electronics!
- Research the reviews for the model number Amazon and Wal-Mart seem to have the most honest reviews and be sure to read them all. Sometimes people just have a grudge against the company.
- Use search engines to compare the prices online sometimes there could be a $10 price difference or the same price but one site offers free shipping and others don’t.
- Keep receipts and familiarize yourself with the companies return and exchange policy!! I will often leave the box together in case I need to return it to get a better deal. (I start Christmas shopping in Sept with stores that have a 90 day return policy but most electronics are 30 day returns)
- Use sites that offer you cash back for shopping online!! I use this money to save up for the next Christmas or as a snowball debt payment on my student loans.
- Sometimes if the store isn’t affiliated with a cash rebate site it will be found on a site that offers you points to redeem towards gift cards at a later date!
- Search the net for discount codes and free shipping offers. This can add to even larger savings!!
When do you start your Christmas shopping? What do you do to make sure you are getting the best deals?
