Web Sites That Can Save You Money

These are from Good Housekeeping, September 2008 by Kelli B. Grant, consumer reporter for smartmoney.com. Let me know what you think if you try them.

http://www.priceprotectr.com/ - helps you get money back if items you bought have dropped in price. Register your purchases, and e-mails will arrive when the prices have fallen. Claim the cash with an e-mail, phone call, or store visit.

http://www.honesty.com/ - lets you know how much things usually go for on eBay and what's currently for sale there, so you don't overpay when you buy. Type in an item name for price comparisons on current and recent eBay listings.

http://www.retailmenot.com/ - amasses coupon codes for discounts at 15,000 online merchants. After you enter the e-tailer's Web address, you will get a code to receive your price break. Go mobile with http://www.cellfire.com/, a site which lets you access coupons on your cell phone. Then show the code on your tiny screen (to the bewildered clerk) when you are checking out.
