I’ve had a few reader questions and comments lately pointing out that many of you subscribe with Google Reader or Feedburner and may be missing out on some important information. Here are 5 Top reasons why you should visit websites every once in a while.
1. Many deals go fast, within a few hours, so if you only check posts at the end of the day, you may miss some HOT deals or coupons. A Great example this week was the Healthy Choice coupons, which really did reach the print limit within a few hours. If you are checking into the site, you can catch some of those fast deals before they are gone.
2. You don’t want to miss all the extras on the sidebars. Blogs have items on their sidebars that can give you great information on deals, hot posts, or how to find more information. Here at Saving Cents with Sense, you can also find what giveaways I have available, the Swagbucks widget (which you can find out swagcodes!), and the Chat box, which allows you to instantly interact with those of us on the website at any given time.
3. Comments make the post. Many of you leave valuable comments on posts that have more information or can help each other out. You may have a question that someone already asked or know the answer for someone else. Adding and reading each other’s comments will help build the community here so we can all help each other as we find money saving tips.
4. Resources. I have several resources listed in the top menu bar of my header on coupons, grocery store and drug store deals, FREEBIES, and other items. Right now, I have the Back-to-School page listed at the top so that you can find it quickly to get all the best deals at your favorite stores. These resources are always there for you, but I may add/change a few things depending on the time of year or what is HOT at the time.
5. Personality. If you visit many other sites/blogs, you’ll notice a wide variety out there, and I think you can learn a lot about the owner of the site. Hmm, what does my personality say? :)
With all that said, please continue to subscribe to your favorite sites. I, personally, love using Google Reader and having email updates in my inbox. However, I just want to make sure that you all don’t miss out on any great deals or other resources that will help you save!
As always, I love to hear from you, so don’t be shy, comment away! :)
