Getting the biggest discounts from the biggest retailers online
There are literally billions of products online and so many major retailers that it's often difficult to know what to do, where to go and who to buy from however, there are always rules when it comes to buying online and providing you follow these then you are sure to come out with the bargains you are looking for. One of the first things you must always do before buying anything online, be it a product or a service, is research. There are countless ways to research prices online but some of the more popular options include price comparison websites, shopping robots (these are websites which compare the deals posted on price comparison sites) and product aggregators such as Google Shopping.
The first thing you should always do is venture off to a price comparison site and make sure you really are getting your money's worth. It is often the easy decision to rely on a major retailer and so many people often log on to Amazon, or other major e-tailers, and buy direct without first considering the other options open to them. Even on the main Amazon.co.uk site there are endless possibilities for securing the best deals with a few simple changes to a URL you can find discounts on Amazon.co.uk that will enable you to save upwards of 70% on a whole range of products (a good way to do this is to visit The Amazon Price Finder tool at MoneySavingExpert.com).
Another great option which many people fail to consider is the second hand marketplaceagain, this is a great option for unearthing a few bargains. eBay is often the most popular choice however consumers will also be at home on other marketplaces such as the Amazon Marketplace which allows smaller stores up and down the country to post deals directly to consumer through Amazon (with Amazon taking a percentage of the sale).
A final option is to look for a good coupon code the great thing about coupons is that they take about 2 minutes to search for but when done correctly, can really land you a great deal. Coupons or promotional codes are available on any given day for most of the major retailers online and all you need to do is enter the voucher code in the discount field when you checkout the merchant will then discount the product automatically.
