Finding a good deal is always a great feeling. However, this is normally done by walking past your favorite store and seeing a Sale sign for the coming weekend, or whilst you're busy shopping, seeing that an item has been reduced for the next 2 days, or even worse, hearing about it from your friends after the sale has finished.
Coupons are one way of getting a a good deal, but they just weren't always available for what you want, or you just don't feel like handing over a grubby coupon to get a discount.
The internet has made it a lot easier to find deals these days. Many deals are available on the internet, allowing for instant purchase on the discounted item. But by far the most important development is the access to information. Knowing when a Sale is going to be happening at Guess or knowing that some item is discounted at your supermarket for the next 2 days, etc. Most deals and discounts are still not available online, so it is this knowledge of when and where, either online or in the real world, that a good deal can be found that makes life easier. And cheaper.
A good example of this is www.loadeddeals.com where a user such as yourself can upload details of any deals that you hear about, and then other users rate that deal Up or Down. This allows the best, or most popular deals to rise to the top so you can always know what the best deals are.
Happy shopping
