DID YOU KNOW OUR MOM IS A CHEAP-SKATE?


Since we live out in the country,
we do a lot of internet shopping,
but our Mom hates to pay shipping charges -
especially when the item she orders
cost less than the shipping.
She is always searching for coupon codes
to get free or reduced shipping.

Today she found this website -
freeshipping.org
and thought she'd share it with you.
According to them,
they have free shipping codes
for 2444 stores -
hope it saves you a buck or two.

XOXO

    Holy smokes! That's awesome!!! Mom hates it when there's free shipping if you spend a certain amount and she has to decide whether it makes more sense to get the item she kind of doesn't need or just pay the damn shipping! Now if she can only find nosalestax.com Mom will really be in heaven.

    Your pal,

    Petey

    Thank you, Scotties, for some good information to have. My Mom will check it out and if she can save a few bucks she can give more to rescue!

    Kisses,

    Wow, I'm going to check that out right away. I do almost all my shopping online. I do use Ebates, which makes me feel a little better about shipping, especially when the check arrives in the mail.

    Thanks for the tip! I usually only order from places online where I get free shipping so this helps with my search. I also use a place like www.ebates.com to get money back from my shopping sprees.

    Hello! I'm getting caught up on my blog visits after being out of town for a few days and am excited by your new studio!! That's going to be so nice to have and look forward to seeing the completed project!!
    I also don't like to pay shipping charges and have used this site when it wasn't offered from the place I was ordering from--It really does make a difference and makes me want to shop more since I save by not paying shipping! How's that for an excuse?

    I don't think your Mom is a cheap-skate..she's a very smart woman! More money saved means more money for treats...hehehe! *wink* Mom always wishes that she lives in the US coz there are so many things that she wishes to get from online shopping, but the shipping just kills everything I guess...too extravagant to ship to Malaysia =(

    Anyways, hope you have a great week ahead!

    What a smile! Mom must have ordered something for you! Thank you for the link. We order a lot too. We pay Amazon's annual fee, and get it back with free Priority shipping over the year. We order everything under the moon from there.
