Retailers may think they’re being sneaky with you, but you can be even sneakier back to them without their departments even realizing it. Suppliers need consumers, which means your patronage and purchases with their company is required for them to make a profit. These retailers need you, and as a result, we’re going to show you how to be sneaky with them in the process.

1. Wish Lists:
Someone at their team is checking your wish list out every day. It’s part of their customer service department. The more items you add to your wish list, the more likely they’ll throw you some discounts.

2. “As Is:”
Did you know you can search returned items on a site by typing in “as is?” Items are sold at 50 to 70% off if they have been returned.

3. PriceBlink:
Add this feature to your browser so it compares all of the different prices that your desired product is listed at. That way, you’ll know you’re getting the best deal.

4. Seasonal Trends:
If you have an expensive purchase coming up, try and align it with seasonal trends like Martin Luther King Jr. Day or President’s Day. You can always count on a holiday discount.

5. Download Apps:
Most retailers have apps today so they can market to you directly. Download their apps and check out what special savings you get from them as a reward.

6. Store Pick-Up:
If you really want to save money, you can shop at home, but elect for an in-store pick-up when you’re done to avoid any shipping and handling fees.
