“Just Revealed… 86 Online Shopping Secrets That Will Save You Time,
Money and Hassle, Guaranteed”
(While Assuring Your Online Security and Privacy)
Dear Online Shopper,
Ever heard one of those jokers you work with bragging about some great online deal they just snagged?
The season’s hottest toy… that eye-popping new LCD Projection TV… the automotive whatchamacallit… or maybe that newfangled cell phone with more features than a movie theatre?
It’s enough to drive you crazy! Or make you green with envy.
How the heck are they finding all this cool stuff at rock-bottom prices? These guys aren’t brainiacs. For some strange reason, YOU can never find those deals when you shop on the Internet. How come they can save all that money while you pay top dollar?
And besides, how do they figure out if these websites are legitimate? After all, you hear all these stories about how it’s dangerous to pay with a credit card online. What do these friends and co-workers know that you don’t about shopping online?
If that sounds like you — if you’ve ever wanted to know how to make online shopping work for you — your luck is about to change. You’ll be mesmerized by what I’ve learned.
I was an ordinary consumer, with too little time and too little money.
But I discovered extraordinary online shopping strategies that, to my amazement, had media reps clamoring to interview me…
You see, I never pay full price for anything I buy online, I’ve never had a security problem or payment glitch that wasn’t easily resolved – and the world is my shopping mall!
Check out these stunning deals I’ve gotten recently…
Just yesterday I ordered a gourmet Bravetti 8” omelet pan. It retails for $49.99. I paid just $9.95 and paid no taxes, no shipping and no handling fees. It’ll be delivered straight to my door within a week.
I never pay more than half price for inkjet cartridges.
Oh, and our teenaged son’s Pearl Drum Set, a Christmas gift a few years ago – Santa didn’t cram it down the chimney. Mom bought it online.
Ditto for my hubby’s Garmin GPS Receiver, which he likes to take when he’s canoeing or geocaching. Why pay $499 when you can get it for $120 less, plus free shipping, plus no tax – and get a $40 rebate, too?
Look, I’m not trying to brag. I’m not a computer programmer, I don’t work for Amazon.com and I’m not a rocket scientist, either. I haven’t always shopped this way.
I’ve always hated to pay full price for anything.
And I certainly have better things to do with my time than fighting crowds, grumpy cashiers, and city traffic when there’s something I need to buy for my family. (Or yes, when I feel like splurging on myself!)
Back in 1999 I wrote a book about business cards. And I figured I’d try selling it online. It was kind of a lark, just a hobby. I’ve always liked computers and surfing the ‘Net.
My thinking was “Why not give it a try and see if I can make a little extra money with a sideline, online business.”
To my amazement, that “hobby” business card book is still selling to this day, around the world. And it became the first of multiple products and websites.
Fascinated by my unexpected success, I delved more deeply into the concept of “online businesses” and how they worked. I analyzed what made them effective, from both the angle of being a consumer and the angle of being a seller.
I took courses. I took notes. I studied.
And, of course, I kept shopping too…
What I learned convinced me that it’s not complicated to shop online.
It really isn’t, even if you’re new to the Internet and have absolutely no online business experience.
Shopping online is something anyone can do, with a bit of coaching, a bit of training, and the right tools. You CAN find what you want at the price you want to pay. You CAN order right from your home or even during a lunch break at work.
The “catch” is that online shopping is different, with a different set of risks.
Security concerns are the main reason people don’t shop online. They’re worried about internet security and about giving out their credit card information. Not to mention these online “scams” they hear about.
Yet it’s no more dangerous to shop online than it is to shop at Wal-Mart.
It’s merely a matter of knowing what security precautions to take.
When you shop at the mall, you don’t leave your car unlocked, do you? Or leave your purse unattended in a shopping cart? Or flash wads of cash in front of strangers?
Of course you don’t. Those security precautions aren’t difficult, and they’ve become second nature to you. Online security precautions are just as commonsense and simple. Once you know what they are, they become second nature, too.
So how do you figure them out? What can you do? There’s simply no reason to go on wasting your time, your energy and your money in shopping online without this knowledge!
It’s time for YOU to begin seeing REAL savings from your online shopping trips!

All those years… all those sites… all those tools… all those deals… it’s absolutely mind-boggling!

The Insider’s Guide to Shopping Online is sort of a “condensed version” of everything I know. Nothing is included in the manual (actually, it’s more of a “toolkit” – more about that in a minute – that doesn’t meet one of the two following criteria:
It has to save me time, money, or hassle; and
It has to be safe (no credit card worries or email privacy concerns)

The second half of The Insider’s Guide to Shopping Online focuses on the tips, tricks and tactics that have saved me the most money over the years.
These are the secrets most people never learn.
Most online shoppers feel pretty good when (and if) they snag an occasional 10% off deal or “Free Shipping with Minimum Purchase” offer.
You’ll be equipped to use these strategies and go way beyond that. In fact, you can save thousands of dollars every year by applying only a few of these secrets. And you’ll seldom, if ever, need to pay full price for anything online, ever again!
Part Two of “The Insider’s Guide to Shopping Online” reveals my
hard-won, closely-guarded discount shopping secrets:
The two very best money-saving strategies in my shopping arsenal; I try to apply them every time I shop because one of them is almost certain to save me big-time bucks!
How filling in an often-overlooked field on your order form can pay off, big-time; once you become aware of this field you’ll kick yourself for not noticing it before

How to qualify to buy brand-new merchandise at half price, or less! It doesn’t matter if you own a store, you can easily qualify to buy merchandise using this particular discount, too.

How to slowly-but-steadily earn shopping credits or cash back, all year long; it’s like getting $50 or $100 gift cards, absolutely free!
How to combine savings strategies to really multiply savings; why settle for a measly $10 off deal when you can save in 5 or 6 more ways on a single offer?
For NON-U.S. shoppers, there’s an entire section on INTERNATIONAL websites you’ll find helpful! (Included as requested…)
And as if that weren’t enough…
I’ve even included a chapter on Gift-Buying Strategies online.
What do you buy for a 16-year-old kid when a) he hates your taste in clothes and b) you hate his taste in music and c) it’s got to be electronic and d) it’s got to be “cool” and e) it has to be less than $100?
Whether it’s for Grandma, your boss or your spouse, if you’re scouring the Internet for gifts, you absolutely MUST read this section. Especially if you have no idea what to get! (I’ll show you exactly where to look.)
How much is all that information worth to you? How much do you think you could save in one year – one month – even ONE PURCHASE – if you knew exactly how to get the best price and got paid to shop there, too?
How much are these time, money, and hassle-saving
shopping strategies worth to you?
I don’t know how much you shop online – or how much you would do so if YOU KNEW what I KNOW – but it’s as plain as the nose on your face that shopping online saves in SO many ways.
Shopping online saves:
Gas;
Time;
Sanity (Not having to drag tired or hungry kids – or a spouse, for that matter – to six different crowded stores in one afternoon is a real sanity-saver in my opinion); and
Money
I don’t know how far you live from the stores you want, and I don’t know how firm your grip is on sanity at the moment…
So let’s consider the time savings. I can’t put a true value on it (I mean, you never get back an hour you waste, right?)… but let’s say your time is worth a measly $10 per hour or so. If this how-to report saves you 10 hours of driving, fighting crowds only to find out the store is out of your size, placating cranky kids by buying food or junk they don’t need and gulping $4 gourmet coffees to keep you going… that’s worth an easy $100, wouldn’t you say?
But I CAN help you quantify the kind of savings the information in this guide guarantees. Just in this letter, I’ve mentioned…
A Palm Treo from Amazon. Savings: $128.00 (46%)
A Disney tent. Savings: $110 (85%)
A gourmet Bravetti Saucepan. Savings: $40.04 (80%)
A beautiful Entertainment Center. Savings: $433.01 (61%)
That’s only a few items, but the total saved was $711.05. (Not to mention the shipping savings. And no taxes.)
What would you do with that $711.05 you just saved? Buy furniture? Put it towards that trip to Hawaii? Sock it away for the kids’ college fund? Splurge on a weekend at a spa?
With THAT kind of easily-doable savings, the actual price for this manual ought to be comparable, right? Maybe $697 or so? Look at how fast you can recoup it! You could easily save thousands of dollars this year alone!
But that price is a bit ridiculous. There’s no way I’d charge you that much. For one thing, it doesn’t cost me that much to get this amazing info TO you. It’s delivered electronically (it’s a document you read on the computer – print it out if you want, you’ll get it right after you order) so I don’t have printing costs or delivery costs.
And besides, we’re fellow shoppers out looking for deals. It’s a lot of fun for me to tell friends and family about a great new website or a hot new way to save money. I get a real kick out of this!
So here’s the price… a mere $67. Friends tell me it’s MORE than fair – they don’t want me telling you about some of these sites anyway!
But it IS the New Year, and I’m feeling full of goodwill, so…
