Local Deals

The web site Pocket Your Money provided the following.  The surprising one was Target's daily special.

Groupon

Groupon will send you an email each weekday with a deal specific to your metro area. I’ve seen deals on restaurants, salons, dental work, car repair and everything in between. Each deal is offered in a limited quantity and for one day only. The deals must be purchased by a minimum number of people too, otherwise they’re cancelled (but I doubt that happens very often).

Adility

Adility works the same way as Groupon, where you are emailed one deal every day that’s specific to your local area. Their deals are always offers for 50-90% off full retail price.

Restaurant.com

Restaurant.com sells coupons (they call them certificates) for area eateries. Each coupon requires a minimum purchase, but even with that you can get some great deals. Right now, use the code DINE and you’ll get 50% off any Restaurant.com certificate, plus a free $10 Restaurant.com certificate good on a future purchase. Learn more about it by reading this review, Restaurant.com: What It Is and How It Works.

Swagbucks

Who doesn’t like the thought of earning by surfing the web? Swagbucks let’s you do just that. You earn points that are redeemable for gifts. My favorite is the $5 Amazon gift card that costs 450 points. An active web user could likely earn that in a few weeks. When you join Swagbucks right now you’ll get 60 bonus points for registering when you use the code POCKETDOLLARS. Swagbucks just had its 2^nd birthday and in this Happy Birthday Swagbucks article, I share a plethora of ways you can rack up Swagbucks quickly.

Target Daily Deals

Don’t you love walking the back aisles at Target looking for great clearance-priced deals? Better than that, you can check out Target’s Daily Deals. Every day they offer exclusive deals online that are good for that day only. They have a couple each day, so when one sells out the next comes up. You can subscribe to get these deals via email, text or RSS feed.
