My Five Favorite Money Saving Websites

These are my top five favorite websites that I visit on a daily basis for money saving posts. I have saved a great deal of money by following these sites.
  1. moneysavingmom.com - Crystal at moneysavingmom.com posts deals and articles from a mom's perspective. Her blog is one of the first money saving blogs that I started following when I was a new mom. 
  2. howtoshopforfree.net - I read Kathy Spencer's book "How to Shop for Free" which led me to her website howtoshopforfree.net. I find the most valuable part of the website to be the grocery store forums. The grocery board moderators post the sales flyers for grocery stores matching them up with coupons. 
  3. thekrazycouponlady.com - Gotta love the name of this blog, right? I found out about this blog last year when one of the two women who run it was featured on the "Extreme Couponing" show on TLC. She was shown dumpster diving for coupons. I would not go that far for coupons. She does post some great deals. Every week, she posts the best deals at CVS, Rite Aid, and Walgreens and has a weekly feature on how to only spend $5 getting the best deals of the week.
  4. thesimpledollar.com - Trent at the simpledollar.com is a full time blogger that posts articles about saving money. I find some of his ideas a bit extreme. For example, he makes his own laundry detergeant. No thanks! I just ignore the extreme ideas and read the articles that I find interesting.
  5. getrichslowly.org - Get Rich Slowly is similar to the Simple Dollar and posts one or two articles a day about saving money. J.D. is the founder of the site. Now it has a few regular writers who post on a range of money saving topics.
