Online Shopping

I love the holidays, but the chaos that comes with it can be overwhelming. At least we have a little break before Valentine's hits us.

I read an article that was a good reminder of the pitfalls of shopping online. A few of the main points were...

  • Watch out for so called "free" or low-cost trials or samples that may require high shipping fees
  • Be sure there is a posted privacy policy that guarantees the safety of your personal information
  • When buying, have a look for an "s" after the http: in the Web site address. That means its secure and your credit card info is protected. As in https://
  • Be sure to hang onto a copy of your order and confirmation number, in case you need later

Just being cautious is always a good idea.

Freebies

I've always been into deals, and have just started looking into freebies.

Since this blog serves as a kind of journal, I thought I'd post some places to find freebies and freebie related offers online.

absurdlycool, thunderfap, and the freebie directory are all great, but I really like heyitsfree.

January savings

The new year has arrived and the January savings are to be found just about EVERYWHERE!

I like to check Amazon deals often, but there are so many more out there!
(Recently I found this site for checking amazon deals which saves me time.)

One thing better than deals is freebies!

I'll start blogging more on freebies as I find them!
