6 Websites that Will Save You Money

When money is tight, we have to get creative on how to save a dollar here and there. The small savings add up to big savings, and we can stick to tight budgets while meeting our financial goals.

You deserve the best deal out there, but you may need help finding it. If you are looking to save money online, here are some great online resources to help you stretch your dollar even further while hunting for deals.

Ebates

Ebates is a great money-saving company that allows you to get cash back after shopping through its partner stores. They have affiliate relationships with thousands of stores. All you have to do is visit Ebates.com first and then click through to the store of your choice. You’ll receive cash back, discounts and other great offers.

If you’re wondering how this works, Ebates gets a commission from the stores it links to. Then, they split this commission with you. Some stores will only provide a few points cash back (think: 1 percent), but others will have very lucrative offers from time to time. It adds up! Ebates is great—though it might look questionable at first, trust me—it’s a quick and easy money saving tool.

Swagbucks

Swagbucks is a great rewards program that allows you to earn money, or swagbucks, back. Each swagbuck, or SB, is the equivalent to about 1 cent. Most commonly, swagbucks are earned after sign-up when the users complete online surveys. Each survey may be worth anywhere from 1SB to 1000SB.

You do not have to fret about where your information is going, because Swagbucks is up front and honest about the entire process. Your rewards eventually begin to add up and you have quick cash! There are lots of other ways to earn cash too (other than surveys) so be sure to take a look.

Slickdeals

Slickdeals is a great-find for anyone who loves searching for the best deal, especially for larger purchases. It is a massive deal-sharing site where members both share and rate deals that they have found and/or used. It makes it easy to find the best deals for what you are looking for, and the voting process helps prevent you from wasting your time on sub-par options.

Honey

The Honey app is an automatic browser extension that will help you find and apply coupons or deals whenever you are shopping online. The app literally applies coupons for you when you are in your shopping cart and checking out. They help you save even when you are unaware that a coupon exists. Right now, Honey is available on desktops, with plans to move mobile in the future.

It is completely free at this time, because Honey earns a small commission from their partner stores each time users buy online.

Giving Assistant
