7 Tips for saving moneyWhen shopping on line.

Be PatientThere is a continuous

cycle of online bargains—old promotions expire, new deals come out. If you can't find what you're looking for right away, be patient and check back often.

Shop Around—Check Various WebsitesThere are hundreds of

online retailers that offer the same products at different prices. Take some time and research who has the best deal. A good place to start is Froogle, an online shopping service by Google that provides a list of retailers and prices for any given product.

Take Shipping Costs into ConsiderationSometimes you may find

a product online at a great price, but then discover the retailer charges a considerable amount for shipping and handling. When you're comparing prices consider shipping costs.

Register with an Online Coupon Service

Online coupon services are websites that scour the web for online coupons, promotional codes and links to discounts. They create huge databases of online coupons that offer hundreds of dollars in savings.

Create An Alternative E-Mail AddressOften times when you

sign up for an online coupon service you're required to provide an email address. Depending on the service and their privacy policy, this address may be given to other businesses to send you promotional material.

Don't Get Hung up on a Certain Brand Name

As consumers, we sometimes get tunnel vision, we focus on one brand name and fail to see other similar products that may be just as good or better, and cost less money. Keep an open mind as you shop.

Ask for HelpMost shopping sites have

an email address, phone number or online chat so you can contact customer service. If you're not sure what model number to get or exactly what you need—just ask. Online retailers are more than willing to provide assistance.

Read Product ReviewsOne of the biggest

advantages to shopping online is the ability to access information instantly. Before making a purchase, especially a big one, it is a good idea to research the product. You can also look for reviews written by consumers to get a buyer's perspective.

Plan If you're shopping for a

certain date like Christmas, a birthday or anniversary, plan ahead. It usually takes a few extra days to shop online because the product has to be shipped to your home. Furthermore, if you're pressed for time, you're more likely to give up a good deal just so you can get the product in time.
