I haven’t participated in GTT for a couple of months. Thankfully, my soul-sisters over there have kept the dream alive. We now have topics scheduled again and most of us are going to try to participate each week. I started this silly meme over a year and a half ago and I love that it gives me (and others) the chance to drop the Serious Blogging mentality and just chatter with other ladies. (And sometimes dudes.)
Sometimes I get stuck feeling like everything I put in this place needs to be Meaningful or Thoughtful or Funny or I dunno, full of Quality and really? No. This is just my place where I put stuff. And on Thursdays it’s generally fun and goofy stuff.
Such as today’s topic! Discount and sales sites. I know everyone has favorites. The whole recent flood of sales sites is basically my only favorite thing about the recession. I don’t actually SHOP on them often, but oh do I window shop on them. Pretending to buy stuff on the Internet is one of my favorite brain-soothing procrastination methods.
Here are my favorites:
- SlickDeals.net Mostly tech stuff, but sometimes ridiculous amazing Amazon deals. Like Haribo Bears.
- RedTagCrazy.com* I don’t shop here often, but once in a while something I can’t resist pops up. Denim, mmm.
- KidSteals.com Amazing deals sometimes. Quick shipping.
- GreenBabyBargains.com I haven’t bought anything here before but I love that they focus on green stuff.
- RetailMeNot.com This is a must-check site before you check out on almost any online retailer.
- Overstock.com Excellent prices on small furniture and party dresses. Good shipping prices.
- Kayak.com. Despite the five gazillion pop ups, it’s a good way to compare airline prices.
- Hotels.com. I love the interface for quickly and easily comparing prices on a map.
What are your favorite discount/sales sites?
