4 Sites You Can Use to Save Money During the Holidays

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at OK State chapter.

Shopping for gifts during the holiday season can be stressful, but one way to relieve some of the stress is to save money. Here are 4 websites or apps that offer coupons or cash back with your festive purchases. 

1. Honey

Honey is a free chrome browser extension that is super easy to download and offers a ton of coupons when you are shopping online. I highly recommend downloading it right away, you won’t regret it. 

2. Groupon

Groupon is an e-commerce website that offers you deals on activites in your city, home goods, exotic tours, etc. You can find just about anything you want on the site at a discounted price. It’s free to make an account and the company will email you with the new deals you can check out. You can download the Groupon app through the App Store or Google Play, you can also shop them online. 

3. Rakuten

What was once known as eBates, is now Rakuten. Rakuten doesn’t offer coupons, however they offer cashback when you shop through their site. When you join for free, you get a $10 Rakuten cash bonus or a $10 Walmart gift card. The site is a great option for when you want to get your shopping done online and when you can’t find coupons for the items you are purchasing.    

4. RetailMeNot

This app is basically a mixture of everything listed above. They offer coupons, cash back, share exclusive deals and more. You can download it for free through the App Store or Google Play, or shop their website.
