TAMPA - Department Stores Email Lists

Last week we suggested ways to save money by joining restaurant eClubs. We can do the same thing with department stores, local retailers, and some of your other favorite places to shop.

Many retail outlets offer coupons or discounts simply by signing up on their email list.

A few reminders:

  • You may want to keep your coupon email separate from your personal emails. Create an email address solely for your money-saving emails.
  • Play the numbers game. For example, if a coupon offers $10 off of a $20 purchase, and your purchase totals over $40, split up your purchase as two transactions so you can use two coupons and save $20 rather than using just one coupon saving $10.

How good are the savings? *Here are some recent examples:

  • Macy’s offered $10 off of a $25 purchase.
  • Aeropostale offered $10 off a purchase of $50 or more.
  • Bath & Body Works offered a free Signature Collection item with a $10 purchase.
  • Kohls offered a $5 coupon just for signing up with their email list.

*Some offers may have already expired

Here are a few links to some popular retailers to get you started:

So get going! Start saving! Look for my other saving tips to come soon.
