Thumbs up Eleven Great Websites That Will Save You Time and Money

Hi guys,

There's some great links for saving time and money out there - here's a few I've been using:

For Real Estate Values: 80 million listings. Values based on recent sales of similar homes in your area-
Zillow

For Travel Deals: the only travel website you'll ever need-
Kayak


Here are some others:
Eleven Great Websites That Will Save You Time and Money

Anyone else out there have any good websites they use regularly?

From the main site:

http://www.propertyroom.com/default.aspx

Cheap stuff from police auctions. Sort of the craigslist of law enforcement I guess.

I never thought of that! It makes me think of another one.
http://freecycle.com/

An up and coming Craig's list type site as well.

I love this site. There is a $45 weekly emergency food planner. It's probably more like $80 now but she has some really good frugal ideas.

Check it out.

I have used zillow many times. Especially to advertise on. It has the quality type of visitors I am looking for. Entrepreneurs looking to create cash flow.

Thanks for the tip on the travel sites!

Here's one if you're in to living green: http://dotearth.blogs.nytimes.com/

There's a ton of these sites out there, but I like this one, especially, because it's always posting new things in the news around the topic.

Talking Free pet stuff

I love free stuff and we found a really great website last week

Zootoo.com

They have tons of free things for our four legged family members and money saving coupons as well.

I like Retail Me Not: http://www.retailmenot.com/

The last time I renewed my domain names, I found GoDaddy coupons at Retail Me Not that saved me a substantial amount of money.
