Just about every girl I know loves online shopping. If you're anything like me though, you have a hard time committing to buying things online. I immensely hate paying for shipping, so I'll only buy things online if I can get free shipping, or if it's a great deal. The internet is a wonderful place though, and there are tons of deals to be had. These are some of my tips to get the best deal from your online shopping experience.
If I'm not just browsing clothing or shoe websites, and I'm actually looking for a specific product, I use Google Shopping. You can find the best price on an item and take it from there.
Once I find the website that I want to buy from or if I'm on a site already, I check to see if they offer cashback on Ebates.com. Ebates is a fabulous resource if you shop online a lot. They offer you a cashback percentage on certain websites. Go to the website to get more details (and sign up using my referral link, maybe?!)
After, hopefully, finding my website on ebates, I move on to retailmenot.com. This website is my absolute favorite for online shopping. All the coupon codes that are out there for your website are going to be on this site. I'm sure most people know about this site, but I don't know how many really utilize it. I usually won't buy something online without a coupon code I found here.
Once I've gone through all this, I checkout... Then, I anxiously check the mail and tracking information everyday until my purchase gets here!
If you're shopping on Amazon and have a college email address, sign up for Amazon Prime Student! It's well worth it, and once the trial ends, it's only $40 to get full Prime benefits. Amazon doesn't usually do coupon codes, but Amazon Prime gets free 2-day shipping (and as y'all know, I hate paying for shipping.)
There's a lot more websites that I frequent to shop online, like Sephora and Charlotte Russe. These are just some of the basics to cover general purchases.
Obviously, there are a lot more great resources out there for online shopping. What are some of y'all's favorites?
xo,

I won't purchase ANYTHING unless I have checked retailmenot.com. Can totally relate to the online shopping addiction. I'm sure the majority of my clothes/shoes in my closet are from online. Also a great place for shoes online is DSW and just fab.com!
This is really nice! I didn't know about retailmenot.com. Will start using it more often and maybe I can commit to buying things online lol
