I had to get my kitchen sink (copper farmhouse) and cooktop ordered. I already knew what I wanted to get, so that part was easy. I picked out the sink months ago. I picked out the cooktop from Lowes a month or so ago and the model one I wrote down is no longer offered at Lowes but they had a similar one for same price and same size (as I had already given our cabinet lady sizes of appliances.)
The sink and strainer was $498 total at Home Depot. My Ebates app on my desktop popped up and said it would be cheaper buying from Houzz, plus a 2.5% cash back that Home Depot doesn't have with Ebates.
Price at Home Depot: $498
Price at Houzz: $485
When I was checking out, my "Honey" app did some coupon code searching and as usual, found nothing (I just need to delete that app!) so I googled coupon codes and found one for $40 off a $400 order!
(I'm rounding some numbers to nearest dollar, for ease of reading)
$498 - Home Depot price I thought I was going to pay
$485
- $40 coupon code
- $12 ebates
-$9 credit card cash back
$424
total savings $74
The cooktop was on sale for $539 at Lowes
I spent $1 and bought a 10% off Lowes online coupon code from ebay.
$540
-$54 (10% off $539, rounded)
-$5 ebates
-$11 credit card cash back

total savings $69
Just trying to save a dollar wherever I can!
Good savings for a little bit of effort. Smart consumer!
ReplyDeleteit was very little effort, that's for sure.
DeleteYou are a very smart shopper! Well done on getting all those discounts!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I was super happy to find that $40 off code
DeleteThat is a big savings! If you look at the time spent in finding these extra discounts, your hourly wage was huge! What did you ever do about the other appliances Lowes no longer carried?
ReplyDeleteI haven't done anything yet, LOL. That's next on my list to figure out.
