Web Sites Offer Deep Discounts

POSTED: 5:54 pm CST November 30, 2005

Several Web sites are helping consumer get deep discounts on a variety of items, and NBC 5 has complied a list.

For example, cairo.com
helps coupon-clipping consumers locate items on sale. The site helped NBC 5 locate Coffee-mate creamer, which normally sells for $3.19, on sale for $2.50.

We used a 50-cent coupon that the store doubled, making the final cost $1.50 -- a total savings of 53 percent.

Mail-in rebates are another way to save money, especially on electronics. And there is an easy way to make sure you never miss another offer -- rebates.com.

On the Web site, we found $50 off of an XM Satellite Radio receiver. Simply print out rebate forms from the site and mail them in.

Several Web sites offer cash back for every dollar you spend, like 5 percent on a Tivo box.

For travel savings, visit farealert.net. The site recently sold hotel rooms at Disney World for $11 per night. A five-night Caribbean cruise for $80 per person and free flights to Acapulco are also on the menu.

So-called coupon trains can also cut costs. Once you join a group, an envelope of coupons eventually arrives in the mail. Take what you want, add a few back, then send it to the next person -- no endless hours of snipping and sorting.
