Hack #2:
Search up bath and body works coupons (insert current month) because each month they issue out 3 coupons, and one of them happens to be a free $5 lotion with no purchase!

There's nothing worse than splurging on a pair of ripped jeans, only for them to go on sale 2 weeks later. However, if you bring it with the receipt, most stores will refund you the difference.

If you donate your old clothes to H&M, you get 20% off your purchase every time!

Clear your history before online shopping ... some stores might sneakily hide coupons or vary pricing based on your browsing patterns and demand—so make sure to always clear your history and cookies before shopping!

Point systems are a great way to earn money back from your purchases. For every purchase you make at your favourite store, points will rack up until you get discounts or gift cards to use next time.
