Save money!]]>http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2007/11/13/buy-coupons-online-save-money/http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2007/11/13/buy-coupons-online-save-money/http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2007/11/13/buy-coupons-online-save-money/#commentsFiled under:

I'm always on the lookout for cool ways to save money -- and buying coupons on the internet might seem pretty strange. But it's also pretty cool. TheCouponClippers.com is a family-run website that sells coupons: you can get hundreds of coupons for hundreds of products. They often have more than 1,000 copies of each coupon available, and the expiration date/terms of the offer are clearly listed.

The minimum order is only $3, but with shipping and a 50 cent processing fee, the site is probably only worthwhile for ordering lots of coupons. But if you find yourself buying the same products regularly (and who doesn't?) you can probably save yourself a ton of money here. The prices per coupon are pretty reasonable -- 50 cents off Dawn Direct Foam costs 5 cents -- if you live in an area where coupons are doubled, that will give you a return on investment of 2000%. Warren Buffett, eat your heart out!

For my coupon-saving opportunities, check out MyCoupons.com, which has a pretty cool list of special promotional codes for various retailers: Shoes.com, Kohls and Victoria's Secret, to name a few. They also have a pretty cool coupon blog.

SmartMoney recently ran an article about seven money mistakes to avoid:
  1. Misidentified priorities. Clipping coupons to save a nickel while paying 15-20% interest on your American Express (NYSE: AXP) card.
  2. Overly-cautious investing. The government appreciates you hoarding those 20-year old U.S. savings bonds.
  3. Misunderstanding risk; e,g., buying asteroid insurance instead of long-term care.
  4. Procrastination. Putting off funding that 401K, for example.
  5. Throwing good money after bad. Perhaps the U.S. government should consider this one!
  6. Letting your ego guide your decisions, e.g., "Who are you to tell me I should sell my Enron!"
  7. Following the crowd, e.g. "I gotta get me some WorldCom."
I thought of a few money mistakes that I might add to such a list:
