Apps for Saving Money With Online Coupons

Saving money can be done in many different ways. The use of the Internet means new methods can be used when purchasing products on a website or at a local retailer. One way consumers can save money is to use online coupons. These come in the form of a promotional code to use at checkout or a coupon to send to a local printer. Visit Professor Savings to learn more about saving money online.

Saving Money

The Internet has many sites that can be used to find coupons for various products. This includes health and beauty products, clothing, and grocery items. The use of smartphones means a consumer may find coupons using various applications. Coupons that are found online offer a great way for consumers to save money on various necessities.

Coupon Codes

Many sites have an option to enter a promotion code or discount code when the consumer has reached the checkout page. A coupon code can be entered by hand or by copy and paste. One thing about using a coupon code is knowing where they can be found. A code is not necessary when shopping, but needs to be entered before completing the purchase.

Many companies offer their customers newsletters which a sent via email. These newsletters may have a coupon code to save twenty percent to 30 percent or more on a purchase. One thing about the type of coupon code for a consumer is where it can be used. Most coupon codes are only applicable at specific retailers.

Printable Coupons

Consumers who visit Smart Source and other coupon sites have the option to select the coupons which are available for many products. These coupons need to be printed and used at a local retailer. This can offer consumers with significant savings based on the products they buy. One thing about the use of an online coupon is the expiration date.

Sites that have coupons available to print means not having to clip coupons from a magazine or from a local newspaper. A consumer who receives email updates from various companies may have deals that are offered via a coupon. The consumer will need to print the email to have a hard copy of a coupon to use when making a purchase. Many restaurants use this as a way to attract customers.

One thing to keep in mind with printable coupons is any restrictions that apply. This means a consumer may need to buy two or more items to use a coupon. Consumers may not want to print a coupon which is set to expire in a few days unless they plan to use it immediately.

Coupon Apps

Many smartphones have apps that can be used to find deals and coupons. Coupons can be saved to use when at a grocery store or other type of retailer. Consumers can also receive fliers for various stores or even newspaper inserts. This is a great way for consumers to save money on food and other items they may want to purchase.

[Review] Circlons Icon Pack

Circlons.. An interesting name for an interesting icon pack.

This is one of the better circular icon packs out there, right up there with Cyrcle. This icon pack features 1500+ icons, all in HD. They truly look beautiful on my Galaxy S4′s screen. The developer covers everything, and then some. He even gets some of the apps that no one else seems to, like AdSense, Analytics, and the new Carbon for Twitter.

The Circlons icon pack has one of the most unique and beautiful apps accompanying it that I’ve ever seen, bar none. The layout is superb, functionality is quite amazing, and even better, the size small. How, you ask? The app hosts all 32 HQ wallpapers in the cloud, and you download them on the fly as you view them! I wish more developers would take this route.

Speaking of the 32 wallpapers, normally I don’t end up using the wallpapers that come with an icon pack, but Circlons were so good, I couldn’t pass it up! It’s been my wallpaper now for well over a week (and normally I change that every day or two). It matches the icons perfectly, and is just awesome looking. But, not only does it match the icons, but it matches the Zooper Pro widget that is designed for the icon pack.

Zooper Pro widget, you say? Yes, there is a matching Zooper Pro widget made by the icon developer that he put out, and it’s phenomenal. It comes with:

– Digital Clock and Date in 7 Colors (12h)
– Dynamic Weather with Current Condition and Temperature
– Dynamic Weather with Temperature
– Dynamic Battery icon
– Dynamic Battery icon with Battery % text
– Google Search and Voice Search in 3 Colors

And here is what the developer has to say about the icon pack:

DirecTV drops The Weather Channel, accuses it of loading up on reality TV

Usually, when there’s a dispute over a pay-TV system carrying a channel, it hinges on sports or in-demand shows like Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead and Mad Men. This time, it’s DirecTV sparring with …The Weather Channel? Believe it or not, as of midnight ET, the venerable forecast standby — and former good friend of the satellite broadcaster — has been switched out for another channel since the two couldn’t reach a new deal. As usual there’s a war of words over who is in the wrong, with The Weather Channel claiming DirecTV’s move puts lives in danger by replacing its experienced forecasters with a “cheap startup.” In response, DirecTV says that TWC has shifted nearly half of its programming to reality TV and that besides WeatherNation (now broadcasting on 362 in TWC’s place), it has weather news on local stations and emergency channels.

This fight is a surprising one, but we probably should’ve seen it coming once TWC launched an array of new shows and started randomly assigning names to winter storms. The only real question? With constantly updated weather info available from Google’s search and almost any phone’s home screen (TWC itself offers apps on platforms from Android to Apple TV), how long will it take before viewers notice the channel is gone?
