Black Friday is not what it used to be. More and more shoppers are opting to sit in
their jammies shopping online as opposed to waiting in line for hours and
fighting for one of a limited supply of the hottest toy or electronics
item. Online stores have responded with
huge discounts referring to the Monday after Thanksgiving as Cyber Monday. Last year I picked up some awesome bargains
on Thanksgiving Day.
You can optimize your online holiday savings by shopping through
a portal such as ShopatHome.com and Ebates.com.
Simply register with them, search the list for the store you want and
click on the “coupon”. You will then be
redirected to the store you have chosen.
After completing your purchase you will be credited for the percentage
offered in the deal you chose. I’ve
gotten rebates ranging from 3% to 8%. We
purchased a riding lawn mower last year through ShopatHome.com, we received a
check for $120.00 and we got free freight delivery directly to our door. In addition, we used our cash rewards credit
card and received an additional 1.25% cash back on top of that.
Check with your bank and major credit card, they may also
offer a shopping portal with a cash rebate.
Whichever way you choose to do your holiday shopping
remember to gift from the heart and keep to your budget!
