Getting &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.retrobloom.co.uk/discount_codes.htm"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;money off &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;a big (or little) purchase feels great - like you're winning the shopping 'price wars', so &lt;strong&gt;avoid paying full price&lt;/strong&gt; on all your online shopping trips, that's an order (with money off I'm hoping!)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;We pay full price for simple convenience more than anything else, however there are many simple things you can do (and none of them underhand tricks or un-ethical methods) without spending too much valuable time doing them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;If you're less prepared to spend money like it's going out of fashion and don't mind &lt;strong&gt;paying full price every time&lt;/strong&gt;, then save time and quit reading right now - this is for the rest of us that want discounts and &lt;strong&gt;money off&lt;/strong&gt; that damned &lt;em&gt;RRP&lt;/em&gt;...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff6666;"&gt;Cheaper Prices AND Money Back? How Very Rewarding&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;Suppliers dictate prices and there are so many retailers, online and high street, that try to cut prices and discount items to make us feel like we're getting a &lt;strong&gt;decent discount&lt;/strong&gt; - it's all in the mind really - the shop slaps a sale sticker on and we instantly feel like we've 'saved' money, but did you know that &lt;strong&gt;online&lt;/strong&gt; shop was selling it at an even cheaper price, or that you could get money back every time you shopped online? You would be surprised.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;Whether it's &lt;strong&gt;discount prices&lt;/strong&gt; on health, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.retrobloom.co.uk/holidayoffers.htm"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;travel&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt; or &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.retrobloom.co.uk/shopping_tips.co.uk/htm"&gt;shopping&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.retrobloom.co.uk/shopping_tips.co.uk/htm"&gt; offers &lt;/a&gt;you want then you can find discount offers everywhere, just take time to search a couple of sites or use &lt;strong&gt;cashback sites&lt;/strong&gt;, shopbots, or even Ebay!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff9966;"&gt;Getting Cash Back&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;A '&lt;strong&gt;cashback&lt;/strong&gt;' site is setup to a) find an online shop quickly and b) give you &lt;strong&gt;money back&lt;/strong&gt; when you spend (surprisingly!).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;Yes they use adverts to build revenue, and prices aren't necessarily cheaper, but you get some of the sites profits back as a way to attract you to the site and get money off your purchases - you click through an advertiser and buy something, they will repay you in cash or loyalty points which you can convert to vouchers to spend in your favourite store.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;A couple of examples of cashback sites are:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.pigsback.co.uk"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;PigsBack&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;- Earn 'Piggypoints' each time you shop through PigsBack.
