The Basics

5 favorite sites for online coupons

Continued from page 1

RetailMeNot.com

Why the experts like it: RetailMeNot.com's dedicated community is what makes this site stand out. Users indicate whether a discount code worked for them, helping shoppers quickly filter out bad deals, Hunt says. They also add comments, pointing out when a code last worked, or any strings attached. "It's pretty darn reliable," Hunt says.

E-mail alerts notify you when new codes are posted for your favorite retailers.

Sample deal: Save 20% off neighborhood car rentals from Enterprise using code "ETC7HC." The offer expires Dec. 20.

SmartSource.com

Why the experts like it: SmartSource.com merges local store sales and an array of coupons to print out and online deals to help consumers maximize savings, says Lisa Lee Freeman, the editor-in-chief of Consumer Reports' ShopSmart magazine.

The selection is great, and entering your ZIP code yields even more deals specific to your area. (As with Coupons.com, check that your supermarket accepts coupons printed from the Web before downloading the software.)

Sample deal: Save $5 on Aquafresh White Trays Pro-Gentle System.
