online shopping saving tips

CASH REBATE: Before accessing any U.S. online shopping websites, first register with Ebates. It will pay you in cash via PayPal (the most convenient) everytime when you click the online shop's hyperlink via Ebates. You don't need to be resided in the States to enjoy this benefit. Lately Asia Miles iShop also provides similar benefit, if you are an Asia Miles member, you may want to check with this website first to see if the shop is on their list, you earn Asia Miles instead of cash here, not bad if you wanna redeem a ticket!

SHIPPING: Many U.S. shopping websites does not provide international shipping, even if they do, the shipping fee is unreasonably and unproportionally high. OneNow or Borderlinx provide you with a U.S. address then DHL the parcels directly to your designated address in HK. It saves shipping costs if you are buying from different stores as they consolidate the packages and send you in one-go. Quick and reliable, I have used OneNow for many times!

DISCOUNT COUPON: Before you proceed payment, search "coupon" or "discount" of the brand, you'll see there is always a blank asking you to provide a promotional code/voucher/coupon on the payment page and you may enjoy extra discount, free domestic shipping for it.

PAYMENT: Some U.S. merchants (e.g. Sephora) do not allow payment by a HK-issued credit card, OneNow provides a service (with extra handling fee) to pay on your behalf.

Always compare the price of the same item offered by different websites, the difference can be huge.

Happy Shopping : )
