This thread is for tips on shopping or deal searching, online or off. I have been wanting to do a comprehensive one but I'll just start the thread slim.

I sometimes find good coupons at Retailmenot the same people who made Bugmenot (which seems to be down right now, and doesn't have much of a relation to deals).
I've never scored anything on woot.com but some people really like it.
Here's a mobile phone coupon feeder at cellfire.com I haven't registered yet.

This is an article I used to get more out of craigslist I especially like the RSS via firefox's livebookmarks. I've been looking for a Nikon D50 body, preferably under $250 :)

I don't go crazy searching for rebates and stuff but I usually check eBay for new in box (nib) stuff, check Amazon, Google Products, and Yahoo! Shopping. it really depends what I'm shopping for.

holla! lucky i don't own a car, and probably won't for at least 5-10 years
good plan
insurance, gas, registration, the car, repairs, and contingencies for accidents adds up.

Insurance + Gas + Payment = $200/month for my motorcycle. ;) Totally worth it.
i guess motorcycles are better value... but not much good in the winter :(
Winters down here aren't that bad, so it's okay.

REI has an anniversary sale going on.
I want the Keen H2's for $65. I found a pair but they didn't let me have it on discount because the shoe's color scheme wasn't the sale color scheme. Now I can get it online, but it's nearly $80 taxed and shipped. Unhappy :(
