Coupon Clipping, Revolutionized: CouponChief.com!

Posted on: September 15, 2009 @ 6:00 am 1 Comment »

I love to shop online, and buy everything from high heels to textbooks, snacks to electronics, and everything in between. My one rule? I never, EVER check out without searching high and low for a coupon code! It’s rare that I don’t find one, and I can’t even tell you how much money I’ve saved! Just this week I’ve saved around $30 on school-related orders, if that gives you any idea.

Out of the many coupon-related sites available today, CouponChief.com is a favorite! They’ve totally updated your mom’s Sunday ritual of clipping coupons out of the newspaper (which I still do before grocery shopping, shh!) by providing an easily searchable online database of coupon codes.

If you’re not already in the process of checking out, you can use the alphabetical Store Listing to see what websites have great coupons available- that way you won’t have your heart set on a pair of super expensive shoes and then fail to find a discount! Instead, you can find those new pumps on a site where you already know you’re going to save! Another way to do this is to just use the “Browse by Popular Tags” box on the side- you know I’m bookmarking the Beauty Page- and you should too! If you’re anything like me, you have a product wish list a mile long… What a great way to keep an eye out for ways to snag those items at a discount! Benefit, Avon, Clinique, and Ulta are some of the first names that come up.

Some of my faves other…

Okay, so not totally beauty related, but… This week, I purchased my textbooks online from Barnes & Noble and was able to save a big chunk of money because Coupon Chief has a page just for them! If you haven’t ordered your books yet, check it out!

Another invaluable page? Um, duh- Sephora! I have NEVER checked out on Sephora without using a coupon code, because they always have at least one running… So why would you miss out? Free samples, free shipping, those aren’t perks you want to ignore! Some are even combinable, for adding shopping pleasure.

Yet another site I use constantly that has a page? Shoes.com, baby! The first coupon code is for 20% off your entire order! Seriously, what else can I say to convince you that Coupon Chief is a must-see?

Oh, what, you want more? Okay, fine! If saving money isn’t enough for you, how about the earning it? With the Pays-2-Share Program, you can do just that! Create an account, upload coupons (I’m sure you receive tons of codes in your email every day through whatever site updates you’ve subscribed to), and earn 2% of the sale when someone clicks & shops via your code!

Saving money, earning money… Coupon Chief is just making it so much easier for a girl to shop!

Current, Upcoming, and Free Gifts from Rue La La!

1411538620_RLXL_1

I’ve never seen XCVI clothing before (shame on me!) but I think that it’s my favorite boutique on Rue La La thus far! I actually snagged the jacket about- the “Black Tinted Accent Ruffle Jacket”- earlier today and I cannot WAIT for it to arrive! The original price was $138… My price, shipping included? $68.95! Less than HALF the price, even with fees… How awesome is that? I would love to have picked up some of the other pieces in the boutique, but my boobs & butt require that I try pretty much everything on in the store. I snagged the jacket because even if it doesn’t work, Rue La La has a 30 day return policy that includes free return shipping!

Also, before I talk about more of my faves and update you on what’s coming next, here’s a really neat offer from Rue La La:

Rue La La will be hosting a Mobile Giveaway next week and all members who order from their iPhone will receive a $25 iTunes gift card and iPhone cover with purchase. Valid August 24th-August 28th! How cool!
