Interestingly, while you may be used to the brick-and-mortar methods of saving money, you are probably not aware that shopping online offers many of the same benefits.

Prime Business Africa has just thought with your cap on. Here are some of the best tips to save money while shopping online.

  1. CLINCH THE EMAIL LISTS OFFERINGS: Oh yes, you read that loud and clear! Yes, be the typical proverbial hunter who has learnt how to shoot without missing since the bird decided to grow sense overnight. Email marketing is one of the most effective forms of marketing for retailers both online and offline. Because of this, they will generally incentivize their customers to sign-up for their email marketing campaigns. As long as you are willing to exchange your email and contact information, you can generally save big on your first purchase with the company. In addition, you can get updated on any sales events they have throughout the year and get exclusive coupons they only deliver to those signed up.
  2. FIND PROMO AND COUPON CODES: Your coupon search doesn’t have to end because you are shopping online. It’s easier than ever to find eligible coupons to use on your online purchases. You can use cashback sites, third-party coupon plugins, and other tools to find coupons that can save you money. If you are planning on making a purchase, you should always be searching for coupons that could save you money. You would be surprised to see how easy it can be to identify coupons that can save you big on your online purchases.
  1. LEAVE ITEMS IN YOUR CARTS FOR EXCLUSIVE OFFERS: This is a hidden trick that not many know about. While this isn’t going to work for every online store, it’s a very effective way to save money for the e-commerce stores that use it. These retailers will generally have plugins that will automatically offer abandoned shopping carts coupons and other discounts to incentivize them to complete their purchase. If you ever plan on buying something and you don’t need it right away, it’s worth trying. If the retailer uses this method to increase shopping cart conversions, they will send you an exclusive offer to incentivize you to complete your purchase. It will save you money and they will complete their sale.
  1. MAKE USE DISCOUNTED GIFT CARDS: “This is a money-saving trick that not enough people use,” according to Yamuna Gibson, a savings expert. If you know, you will be purchasing something in the future, you can generally find ways to save a good 5 to 10 percent off the total purchase price with discounted gift cards. This generally requires a good amount of planning. After all, you won’t always be able to acquire a gift card from a specific retailer. Therefore, you’ll want to try to plan out larger purchases ahead of time. That way, you have a good idea of what gift card could save you money.
  2. LEVERAGE YOUR CREDIT CARDS: Credit card providers want you to spend money. If you aren’t spending money, they aren’t making money. Because of this, they will generally look to supply their customers with incentives to spend more. They will do this in the form of cashback offers and direct offers from retailers. This is a win-win for the credit card company and the retailer. It gets you to spend money and it gets the retailer business. If you have a credit card with these offers, you want to be looking through the offers to try to find ways to save money at retailers you’re already shopping with.

You see? You can actually save money shopping online. Really, there are many ways to save money while shopping online. Just try and leverage some of these tips the next time you go online shopping and leave your mouth agape with how much you would have saved.
