    RetailMeNot can save you dough when you don’t even know

    Filed under: firefox extensions — Eric @ 8:49 pm

    I’m a poet and I kind of know it. RetailMeNot, brought to you by the perspicacious minds of BugMeNot, is both a service and a Firefox extension. The extension is new and will be the main focus of this mini-review. It sits invisibly behind Firefox’s exterior, waiting to pounce on any web site that will try and make a buck off of you. As soon as it detects a web site that has possible coupon codes, it lets you know:

    A slider bar indicates that there are coupon treasures that await you. If you’re not interested, you can close the bar or simply ignore it. Once you surf away, the bar discretely closes.

    I have used the web site for quite a while now, usually as a last check for saving me a little bit of cash. The extension is great because if you forget to check online, it’s no big deal- it will let you know from the get-go if there’s deals to be sliced and diced.

    It’s an unobtrusive little gem of an extension that I recommend. Go check it out for yourself.

      Pretty nifty. We’ve developed another coupon extension at http://www.nextcoupons.com.

      The beauty of it is you set preferences for the types of coupons you want (or even stores, or enter keywords such as ‘ipod’).

      Every time you then click on the Reload Coupon button, it’ll send you to a random coupon related to your interests. Think of it as a stumbleupon for good deals. Hoping to get it into the firefox add-on directory soon.
