How to Save Money Shopping

I love a good bargain, who doesn't?! I wanted to share some of the ways that I am able to get good deals and never pay full price for items.

- Rewards programs- sign up for your favorite store's Apps or rewards cards. Most of the time, the Apps have coupons you can use. I also check for promo codes online while waiting in any checkout.

- Sign up for a credit card (only if you shop there frequently and don't have too many cards already). I have two to my most frequented stores because of the amazing coupons they send.

- Head straight to the clearance section. I always find good deals in the Target and Old Navy clearance sections. Sometimes I don't even let myself look anywhere else but clearance! Once you get used to paying 50-70% off it is really hard to ever pay full price again!

- Shop for the opposite season. Because I am a clearance shopper, when all of the winter clothes become discounted in the spring, I buy for next winter. Again in the fall when all of the summer clothes are marked down, I buy for next summer. You do have to have patience, but it pays off in the end!
