My Ultimate Online Bargain Adventure and a $500 Prize Opportunity!

### My Best Online Discount Experience

The Internet has undeniably changed many aspects of our lives. We can reconnect with people we haven’t seen in years and access information instantly. Even the post office is cutting back on delivery days because so many people use email or automatic bill pay.

One of the best changes the Internet has brought into my life is how we shop. Items I want to buy are generally cheaper, and there are plenty of online discount codes and deals available to make purchases even more affordable.

I’ve saved money on Amazon and other online retailers for years, but my biggest win came while planning a family vacation in 2010. We decided to go out of the country for the first time and stay at an all-inclusive resort.

I checked out all the major travel websites—Expedia, Travelocity, and Book It—and relied heavily on user reviews. We found a resort that seemed perfect: Dreams in Cancun, Mexico.

Initially, the vacation cost over $5,000 for flights and hotel, which was a bit steep for us. However, about a week later, I checked again and found that Expedia was offering special promotional discounts. Additionally, prices varied significantly depending on the dates.

After closely monitoring the prices, I found a combination of discounts and bonuses on Expedia that brought the cost down to just $3,000! Not bad for a little bit of research!

Now it’s your turn! Enter the contest and show off to your friends about how you won $500 on the Internet.
