You can look for online coupons at ShoppersResource.com in a variety of ways.

You can also look for Internet coupons by Category (see the menu to the left). Read the details of each online coupon thoroughly so you know what to expect during your web shopping experience.

Why would a company offer an online coupon or discount code? Just as paper coupons are available through a wide variety of media outlets (newspapers, flyers, inserts, magazines, etc.), online coupons are now being added as another component of a well-rounded marketing plan. ShoppersResource.com has partnered with hundreds of Internet retailers in order to bring you the best online coupons available on the Internet. Merchants offer discount codes as a way to attract new customers, and to increase sales with repeat business.

What are discount codes? Our merchant partners decide on a promotion they would like to offer - such as dollars off, percentage off a purchase or free shipping - and then create a "discount code" comprising letters and numbers, such as "ABC123." The discount code is entered either in the shopping cart or during checkout in a designated box. Please note that discount codes are known by a variety of names, including (but not limited to) coupon codes, promotion codes, media codes, key codes, promotional codes, source codes, free shipping codes, online coupon codes and reference codes. We do our best to keep up with these code names, and provide instructions for redeeming discount codes where applicable.

Is a promotional code the same as a coupon code? Yes! As stated above, a coupon code may be referred to as a promotion code, media code, key code, promotional code, source code, free shipping code, online coupon code, reference code or offer code.

What are promotional discounts? Free shipping, free item with purchase, bonus buys, buy one get one free offers, private sales and discounted merchandise are but a few ways to describe a promotional offer. To redeem a promotional discount, click on the link provided and make the purchase as outlined in the offer. Savings can usually be viewed in the merchant shopping cart or during the checkout process, and do not require the use of discount codes. There are times when an online coupon or discount code can be used in conjunction with a promotional discount!
