Would you like an idea of saving hundreds of dollars while shopping online? Well, who doesn’t!

Being a frugalista myself who takes out heaps of coupons to save a few cents on rubber bands, I do actually love the idea of saving hundreds of dollars on online items– only if the savings are automated and I don’t have to dig into the coupons to add in the shopping cart.

Who says that shopping and saving do not go side by side! Well, Amazon Assistance has made online shopping and saving a whole lot easier. It allows you to keep track of the better deals by comparing the prices between different retailers while shopping online.
