Locate huge savings at Amazon

A neat little trick to locate huge savings at Amazon.com is by entering a special URL that displays products from a certain category and limits the results to products that are discounted by a certain amount.

Example URL:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/?node=468642&pct-off=90-

URL Breakdown:

Url to get to Amazon Search:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/?

Display products from the Computer and Video game category (node):
node=468642

Show products that are at least 90% off:
&pct-off=90-

That's all there is to it. The link below provides a URL generator to make the whole process simple.

Save money while you're in a store

With Frucall you can call an 800# and find out how much a product is if you bought it online. Just call the number, enter the Universal Product Code (UPC) and the best prices from major online merchants are given to you.

How this helps is two fold: 1) You can decide not to purchase and buy it online or 2) Use the price as a bargining tool. A lot of stores have a price-match policy and will match prices to an online merchant. Just last week I went to purchase contacts and the base price for Lens Crafters was $30 a box. I went online and found them at lens.com for $20 a box. Brought in a copy of the online page and Lens Crafters matched the price and also included a $30 rebate. Price matching and using online merchants is a great way to save a lot of money and all you have to do is ask if they support it.

Retail Me Not: Coupon codes for online stores

ReatilMeNot works kinda like BugMeNot but provides coupon codes instead of login credentials. Its probably me but I am so turned off by the dark design of these two sites. In fact, so much that I prefer DealTaker for my coupon codes. Judge for yourself.

DealTaker coupon codes for GoDaddy:

RetailMeNot coupon codes for GoDaddy:

You tell me which is easier to use...
