Recently noticed some amazon items are 80% more expensive than ebay. Made this post for some tips and tricks on finding the best prices, deals or services for general items.

Here are some off the top of my head.

  • Government auctions often have the best bang for your buck on some items. (Tech, tools, etc)
  • Retailmenot.com seems to be the only real coupon website with real coupons. I don’t know of any others.
  • Some mobile and internet providers will offer a discount if you try and cancel.
  • Insurance companies have been caught buying sensor data from your phone and using it to raise premiums if they detect stuff like sudden stops. To get the best deal, avoid their tracking and don’t opt in to their driving performance tracking program.

Here are some potental topics

  • Bank/credit unions plans
  • Insurance plans
  • Food/Groceries
  • Hardware store supplies
  • Tools/House work
  • E-shopping
  • Couponing
  • Pitfalls
