Here are some legitimate and practical tips to make your online shopping experience more enjoyable and cost-effective.
1. Use cashback sites: Websites like Ebates, TopCashback, Swagbucks offer cashbacks on purchases made through their links. You can earn anywhere between 1-12% back on your purchase amount.
2. Abandon cart trick: Add the items you want in the cart but don't complete the payment process immediately; wait for a day or two until the store sends you a discount code via email to lure you into completing your purchase.
3. Sign up for newsletters: Retailers often send exclusive discount codes to their subscribers via email. It's worth signing up and keeping track of these offers.
4. Comparison shop using browser extensions: Browser extensions like Honey automatically search for coupons during checkout from different websites so that you save money without even thinking about it.
5. Leave reviews: Some retailers offer discounts or free products in exchange for leaving a review on their website or social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter.
6. Shop off-season sales: If you're okay with waiting before purchasing new clothing lines, try buying them when they go out of season – winter clothes in summer months vice versa – as they'll be discounted heavily at that time of year
7.Use virtual credit card numbers while making transactions this reduces risk if anyone tries to misuse your data.
