6 Chrome Extensions To Help You Save Money Online

Shopping online is fun…until you have to pay for the items you’ve added to your cart. But there is a solution to save money when shopping online, and it’s through Google Chrome extensions!

Instead of looking for discount codes, these extensions will offer you several codes to help you save money online or take advantage of any ongoing offers. 

Let’s get right into the list and help you save money the next time you are shopping online:

1. Mino (formerly known as Minty)

 

 
The number of times I have personally saved money while ordering Dominos and using Mino codes is TOO MANY! Once added to your Chrome browser, Mino offers you many discount codes to try out as soon as you reach the checkout page on a website. 
 
The good thing about Mino is that it applies codes based on what you have in the car. So even when there are no discounts, you might be eligible for an offer you did not know about. With Mino, you don’t have to search for a buy 1, get 1 free deal. If such a deal exists, it will tell you during checkout and apply various codes for you at the click of a button.
 

2. Honey 

 

Offered by PayPal, Honey has a simple job, and it does it extremely well. When you click your cart and get ready for check-out, it will offer to check available discounts and coupon codes for you. All you need to do is install Honey and add it to your Chrome extension bar. 
 
A newer feature now allows you to get gold points when you shop, and these points can be redeemed for more vouchers and brand gift cards! Earning these points is as simple as clicking the “activate” button when you are shopping online. Having Honey installed means that it will pop up with discounts and gold point offers without you having to worry about a thing!
 

3. Klarna

 

Klarna is a rather interesting Chrome extension! Not only does it give you the option to pay in installments so that you never have cashflow problems, but it also offers coupons and discounts! If that was not enough, now you have the added bonus of collecting cashback points if you use Klarna’s coupons. 
 
Even if you don’t have good coupons to save money, you might still appreciate paying in installments to better handle your finances and avoid big upfront payments. 
 

4. The Camelizer

 

Who doesn’t love a good price comparison? This is exactly what the camelizer extension does. When you are shopping for items on Amazon, this extension can show you a graph of price hikes and falls in that specific item. 

This gives you a good idea of whether you should get the item now at its lowest price ever or wait until Christmas or summer when the prices have historically been lower.  When buying household items or waiting for that perfect price drop to buy things off your wishlist, Camelizer can help a lot!

In addition to all that, you can sign up to receive updates when there are price fluctuations on any items you are considering buying. 

5. CNET Shopping

Ever find yourself really wanting to buy something, but the price is just too much? CNET shopping extension allows you to compare prices offered by various retailers and set up alerts for when prices go down! In addition, it also offers coupons and works with some of the biggest retailers. 

An overall great extension that does it all! Even if you don’t find a cheaper price elsewhere, you may get a good coupon deal, so make sure you don’t miss out! 

6. Fakespot

 

This may not directly help you save money, but it could help in detecting fake reviews.  This could lead to better purchasing decisions and saving money in the long run by buying quality products. 

Fakespot spots reviews that could be paid or fake, resulting in customers buying a product that may not be as good as the reviews promise it to be. The extension also gives you a warning if a retailer is suspicious or has a problematic history, so you can avoid scams while shopping online. 

The More, The Merrier

You can install each one of these extensions to get the best out of your shopping experience online. You might realize that one extension is working better for you and your shopping habits than another. Based on this information, you can adjust your Chrome extensions.
