Tricks to Finding Amazon Discounts
If you are anything like me, you shop on Amazon a lot. I’ve been using the site since it just offered books, and over the years I have watched them add just about anything under the sun via their own marketplace and 3rd party sellers. I recently bought some bar stools via Amazon, because the price the 3rd party seller was offering through Amazon was cheaper than on their own site.
Plus, a lot of survey and reward programs online pay in Amazon gift certificates, so I usually have a balance to spend.
If you know where to look, you can usually find a coupon code to use for most any Amazon purchase. There are also special sales and discounts – again, if you know where to look on their site. You can even find ways to buy Amazon gift certificates at a discount.
Coupon Codes
Amazon used to make it easy to find great coupon codes, but lately I have found myself spending an hour sifting though various sites looking for codes that have not yet expired. As precious as time is, I finally figured out it was not worth my effort. Thankfully, Deal Locker thinks it is worth their effort. They maintain a very handy Amazon coupon code list that is absolutely worth bookmarking.
Discounts
There are discounts all over the Amazon site every day. Locating the discounts that work for you often turns into a game of hide and seek. Here is an Amazon discount search tool that actually allows you to sift results by category or even by the amount of the discount. Want to know every item on the site that is discounted 90% or more? Just put in those parameters and off you go! I did a search for Toys and Games discounted 90%-99% and came up with a huge list.
Amazon Certificates
What could be a better way of saving money than to get your hands on discount Amazon gift certificates? Believe it or not, they are out there. Find the sellers who are offering ceortifcates for less than their original value and you’ll get more bang for your buck when you go to check out at Amazon.
Discounts are why I shop online more than in the stores near my home now. I still like going out and window shopping, but I can do better with comparison shopping and snagging the lowest price online.
