Savvy Shopping Tips
Whether you love to explore the stores or stay at home when you shop, we're all looking for a great deal.
To find those treasures usually means we have to do some digging around, especially if you're trying to pick up a big ticket item.
You don't want to have buyer's remorse after paying with your hard earned money.
I also know time is an issue for many people, so I'll just cut through the chase and give you two sites help you quickly find what you're looking for at a great price – Consumer Reports and Amazon.
In this episode we get into:
- how you can find the perfect gift for your loved ones
- getting discounts on big ticket items
- making sure you get the best price when you shop
Thanks to Jim from Scotch Addict and Ray from Squirrelers for their help.
Hope you enjoy!
