Don't let promo codes drive unnecessary purchases: Only use promo codes for items you genuinely need or have been planning to buy. A discount on an unnecessary purchase is still money spent.
Check for price adjustments: If you buy an item and it goes on sale shortly after, many retailers will refund the difference if you ask.
Combine with cashback: Use cashback credit cards or cashback websites in conjunction with promo codes to double up on your savings.
