Check Out Price Comparison WebsitesWhether you are

planning to purchase a small appliance for your kitchen or a large investment like a car, you can search for reviews and price comparisons online.

Check Out Price Comparison SitesEven if I want to buy

a book from Amazon, I check the reviews first before I put the money into it.

Subscribe to Coupon BlogsEach day, I get

several emails from different coupon blogs that I have subscribed to.

These are kept current daily and give you the best deals on groceries and other items.

Subscribe to Coupon BlogsSometimes they

show you where you can print coupons for particular products.

Many of these blogs have already done the hard work for you in matching current store deals to newspaper and printed coupons that are available.

Participate in Online DiscussionsOften, you can find

like-minded people who are also trying to live frugally on various forums and blogs.

I don't mean to spend all of your day chatting online.

Participate in Online DiscussionsBut if you keep an eye

on these sites, you can pick up tips and ideas about saving money.

You may have questions about a certain product or service and someone else in the discussion may have had an experience with it.

Check Out Authority Review SitesThere are product

review sites popping up all over the place.

Some of these may be writing reviews without ever having used the product.

Check Out Authority Review SitesSearch for high

authority websites that have been around for awhile and have a high page rank.

Read and see if they have actually tried the products and what they have to say about them.

Important to RememberRemember that a deal isn't a deal unless you

wanted the item anyway! It's easy to get carried away, even on

couponing, and buy a bunch of things that you wouldn't normally get or use.

In my zeal, I have at times spent more than I normally would just because I had coupons. Use these frugal tips to spend wisely.
