By far the easiest way to save money is by using the law of lazyness.

The law of lazyness is shopping at home in your bed, in your pajamas, at midnight on the internet and then sleeping in the next day because you are so "exhausted" from shopping.

Now I take this "law" a little farther and I only pay for things at really deep discounts preferably with a coupon code and a rebate too.

Here is an example for you to see how it works.
Say I need to buy school uniforms for my child (my kids don't wear uniforms, but this makes for a really easy example as I recently helped an online reader with this exact purchase).
1. I would go to Ebates (sign up if you haven't already by clicking here) and look to see what companies are listed that sell uniforms.
2. You will see that Lands End sells uniforms.
3. Click on the link to Lands End.
4. You will now get 2.5 % cash back on your purchase right now from Lands End. Look to see is they have any specials on their home page, maybe a free shipping coupon or a dollar off
or % off coupon. If they do read the instructions on how to use it and follow them.
5. If you did not find a coupon code on the website open a new internet window but keep the Lands End one open too.
6. Do a google search for "Lands End" coupons.
Jackpot.... right the one down that works best for your needs.
7. Shop


Remember to shop through the rebate links whenever possible. It may seem like a small amount of money that you are saving at the time, but it all adds up!


Some of my favorite websites that list good deals (besides The No Excuse Budget Website ) are
http://www.fatwallet.com and http://www.slickdeals.net. Both have forums where people post when they find a good deal on both the internet and in regular stores. It's fun to keep an eye on what
others deals are out there, but you need to be careful not to buy something just because it's a good deal. You have to actually need it and have the money budgeted to buy it. Fat Wallet also has a rebate program too.


My favorite rebate programs are Ebates and Upromise . Ebates has tons of stores to shop through and upromise does also. Ebates gives you actual cash back. Upromise deposits money into an account for college savings and also to pay off existing student loans for you or your family members. You can sign up other family members to help you save for college through upromis too!
