Tip of the week:

I post a lot of “when you join their newsletter deals”. Here are a couple of tips: 1) Don’t sign up for the email list until you’re ready to use the coupon as most expire in 1-4 weeks.  2) If possible, sign up at least 1 day before you plan on using the coupon as some coupons are not sent immediately. 3) Sign up using a 2nd email address the next time 4) Don’t hesitate to sign up, get the coupon,  and immediately unsubscribe. All’s fair when it comes to getting discounts!
