Internet Wedding Budget Stretchers

With all the media attention and focus on the ECONOMY, money-saving, penny-pinching tips and resources are popping up all over the place.

Take advantage of this when planning your wedding. For the next step in wedding budget stretching techniques, check out my ebook.

Do a quick Google search for “wedding discount” or “budget wedding” and you’ll find endless lists of budget boosting savings tips and ideas to make your wedding inexpensive.

Don’t limit yourself to wedding specific sites, either.  Many “frugal living” or “thrifty shopper” principles can be applied to your wedding so that you can keep wedding prices low and still have the wedding you’ve been dreaming of for years.

Try a few of my favorite sites on for size:

Wisebread.com - This group blog gives suggestions for everything from eating healthy on a budget to investing wisely to finding the best deals.  Hang out with these thrifty guys and gals for a while and you’re sure to absorb some budget stretching ideas…just by osmosis.

FrugalLiving.About.com - I am all about About.com.  Ways to make money, save money, invest money and find the best bargains doing it.  From do it yourself to “regifting” etiquette, you’ll find it here.

RetailMeNot.com - Do yourself…and your wedding budget…a favor and check this site before buying ANYTHING online.  Search by store for coupon codes that give you 5-40% off discounts, free shipping and freebies.  Here’s a search of wedding discounts on the site…but don’t forget to check out the “non-wedding” stores, too.

PriceGrabber.com - A must for online price comparisons when shopping for the best deal.

Delio.com - Offers comparisons of Ebay prices with retail sellers, plus tons of online coupon deals.

DealNews.com - Tracks the best deals in the most popular spending categories, plus the lowest price deals they can find.

DealTaker.com - While the home page lists lots of deals, troll the forums for the best unknown deals out there.
