I hate pushing carts around
I love online shopping! As I look back now, I sometimes wonder how I did without it, having to run to so many different stores with many not having the right items. By the time I was done, I’d lost the day and would come home exhausted. And, just try doing that with little kids with you.
But, now, I shop online when I can, and that means no more crowds, no heavy bags and I can do it in my pj’s!
Nowadays, it’s so easy to order and re-order my favorites, to window shop online, and to even find the perfect gift for a friend or family member.
Another wonderful thing that I’ve discovered is that it’s super-easy to coupon and code shop for so many of the stores I buy at. I almost always find a discount even for some of the smaller places. One of the newest sites I’ve discovered is Verified Codes. One of my friends loves Steampunk Art and they had a really good deal there so I sent her some. I love that Etsy shops are included as I find so many unique gifts there from different artisans.
Verified Codes was founded in early 2014 and is a wonderful resource for online shoppers. They feature coupons & deals for over 25,000 online retailers & update their database every 15 minutes. They work directly with the web’s largest brands to acquire exclusive, brand-verified coupon codes.
I really like that they have a list of deals expiring today and exactly when they expire for any last minute shopping.
One of my favorite sections of the site is the 50% off page. Verified Codes is the only coupon site with 50% off coupons & deals updated and verified daily.
Unlike some other coupon sites, they verify all coupons before they go live on their site and subscription emails. As soon as they expire, they’re instantly removed. Their sidebar lists coupons with the biggest savings along with soon-to-expire coupons & deals.
In the rare event that a coupon or deal is no longer working, users can click the ‘thumbs down’ icon and one of their moderators will be notified immediately.
I really appreciate the help when shopping online as it has become one of my favorite pastimes as well as a necessity that has been made convenient.
Sure, it’s nice to get out in the sun, to smell, taste and feel what you buy. Online shopping will never fully replace all kinds of buying; however, in this busy day and age, it certainly gives me more free time to spend with those I love, make more family meals and enjoy the latest episode of Chicago Fire.
Follow Verified Codes on Twitter to keep up with new deals. They also have a Chrome extension that will help you when shopping!

I always try to find coupon codes when I shop online. I’m like you, I would rather buy online than go to a store. Unless it’s clothes, then I need to try them on!

Wow an online code place that actually verifies that the codes work? I need to check it out. Too often I go to a site, take the time to look through everything load up my cart, and THEN find out the code doesn’t work…that’s so annoying.

This is great information. I do a lot of my shopping on-line and this will be a big help. I don’t have the best of luck with those codes, so a verified code is good.
