A couple weeks ago, my friend Manisha from NY Social Agenda emailed me with a new site her company has created, called Crowdtap.  With Crowdtap, you share your opinions and in exchange, earn points and rewards.
To get started with Crowdtap, you need to log in through Facebook Connect to verify that you are a real [...]

Maybe my ethics will be called into question again today after yesterday’s post, but I thought I’d share a favorite deal that I heard about earlier this summer.  If you have an active .edu email account, it’ll now come in handy.  My friend Lisa at Fantabulously Frugal shared that with your student email address, you can [...]

Such a simple and smart idea: collect a database of local bodegas that deliver and compile it on a website.
I can’t tell you how many times I’m cooking something late at night and I realize I’m missing an ingredient. Or I’m having people over and we’re running low on beer and snacks. I hate putting [...]

Here’s a secret:  most weeks I spend $2.70 on coffee.  From Starbucks.  And I have a venti iced coffee every weekday.
Want to know the secret?  Starbucks offers 54 cent refills and no, I’m not gross and I haven’t been using the same cup all summer.  What I have done however,  is invested $3.21 (including tax) [...]

Through September 3rd, SeamlessWeb has a new promotion: Pickup Paydays. What this means is that when you place your order via SeamlessWeb and select Pick-up rather than Delivery, you’ll earn Pickup Points. I checked it out online and it looks like most places will offer 5 or 10 Pickup Points. Once you accumulate 50 Pickup [...]

Sometimes I get really excited when I see a great deal on Groupon, KGB Deals or LivingSocial.  I buy it and then wonder, “Oh my God, when am I gonna use this?”
I’m not the only one who suffers from that OMG moment - Caryn sent me a frantic email a few months back as she [...]

Almost a year ago, I wrote about Bing Cashback and how you can use this site to get money back when shopping online. I raved about it, and told everyone I knew that they had to use it when shopping online. A few weeks back I shared the site with a friend, who then informed [...]

I was in shock the other day when I discovered a discount website that I didn’t know about - VillageVines. VillageVines is different than a KGBDeals or a LivingSocial because unlike these sites, VillageVines caters only to restaurants and doesn’t involve a printable coupon.
With VillageVines, you pay a fee, usually about $10, and in [...]

Saving money is what we’re about, which is why we’ve told you about deal sites like Groupon , Blackboard Eats, BuyWithMe (which is officially back after its teaser debut), etc. With at least 40+ other sites with similar propositions, some focusing on verticals such as beauty (Spa Sally’s) or food and drink (InBundles), these few are [...]

Sorry to our gentlemen readers, but this one is for the ladies. We already told you about some of our great finds at Shecky’s Girls Night Out, but at the time we didn’t include Bluefire Cosmetics, a discount retailer that sells premium brand makeup at wholesale prices (e.g., Bobbi Brown lip pencil in soft rose [...]
