Summer can be an expensive time for families — with vacations, special events, new clothes and entertainment. Like many bargain hunters, I love Groupon for the thrill of finding a great daily deal. But did you know you the site is also a great place to find discount codes for… well, nearly anything. Groupon recently partnered with 7,500 national retailers to launch a service called Groupon Coupons. Unlike our regular model, you don’t have to register or purchase anything upfront. It’s a collected and curated group of 55,000 coupons and promo codes from top stores like JCPenney, Express, and Sephora.
Just go to Groupon.com and click on the “Coupons” button in the upper right corner of your screen.
Here are 5 things your family can save on this summer at Groupon Coupons
Photos and cards There are so many great sites for printing your family portraits or turning your vacation snapshots into adorable keepsakes. Look for codes from Tiny Prints or Shutterfly for graduation announcements and photo books. Summer is also a busy time for conferences, so take advantage of deals at VistaPrint for new business cards.
Clothes My boys grow out of their clothes quickly, so I make sure to look for the best prices. I’ve found Groupon Coupons for Lands’ End, Gap, and Sierra Trading Post (which is a great place for hiking shoes, sandals and camping gear, too). And it’s not just practical duds. There are also coupons for high-end department stores, too. I recently found deals for 20% off at Lord and Taylor and $75 off a $350 purchase at Saks Fifth Avenue.
Learning Avoid the summer slide and keep your family reading. Find used or rare volumes with a discount for Abe Books or try out a new language with $280 off Rosetta Stone. Also find deals on books or e-readers at Barnes & Noble.
Electronics There’s a good selection of coupons for your computing and tech needs, with brands like AT&T, Best Buy, Norton or Verizon.
Travel A family vacation is even more relaxing when you know you haven’t paid too much for plane tickets or a hotel room. Expedia is a partner of Groupon Coupons, and right now there are 32 different discounts available on the site.
