Thrifty Penny Tools


Let's say (hypothetically of course) you're tolerably obsessed with these Matiko Giselle Sandals, but being on a thrifty stint, you cannot afford all three of their $$$ price tag.

We can't just leave these homeless little darlings all alone.  We must rescue them using what I can only describe as online metal detectors for bargain treasures.


1) PriceBlink: Notifies you of applicable coupons for the store on which you are presently shopping (also offers price comparison & a wishlist)


2)Invisible Hand: Just like Adam Smith's theory on self interest and market competition, this little tool helps supply your demand for lovely things at even lovlier prices.  The invisble hand alerts you whenever an item is available at a lower price on the product or flight you're shopping.  

Ta-Da: the Invisible Hand reports that our sandals are available for one less dollar sign ($$) at Amazon, and PriceBlink found us 12 coupons at Endless.

Thanks to my little sister Ashley for introducing me to these two new browser buddies.

Now have you entered the Thrifty Penny Giveaway?  While penny parsimony is commendable,  shopping strategy stinginess is unforgiveable.  Let us share and win.
