It’s so hard for me to shop with my kids, they just can’t really handle the over-stimulation of the store, the anxiety of all the non-routine that goes on, and the general OMGWAYTOOHARD that it is to take three special needs kids somewhere, anywhere, for more than 5 minutes.
Why do I bring this up? Because as a 95% online shopper (5% put-myself-through-torture-by-shopping-the-stores-in-person shopper), it’s a part of my own routine to search for coupon codes whenever I shop online. My favorite site to find these codes, Retail Me Not, is celebrating a new site design today and wants to know what you think of it.
While I’m not a couponista by any stretch, I know many of you are and wanted to make sure you also know that Retail Me Not has a stellar cache of printable and grocery coupons in addition to the coupon code. Be sure to check it out to see if there’s anything that can help you stretch the budget!
As a fun way to create buzz and tell you about their site, Retail Me Not is giving away FIVE $25 gift certificates to one of my favorite t-shirt shops — Threadless. They also gave me one too, and I’m trying to decide between Everybody Loves A Yeti and Loch Ness Imposter. Maybe I just need both.
Win it! Enter to win one of five $25 Threadless gift certificates. Here’s how:
1. Leave a comment here telling me what you like best about Retail Me Not’s new design or their services or something relevant. Non-relevant comments won’t count, so don’t make me pull over and come back there. This comment is required for entry.
2. Get an extra entry by subscribing to my blog either by RSS or email (leave a comment letting me know you did).
Contest ends next Wed September 9th at 11:59pm. Winners will be chosen at random. Good luck!

I love the design! And I'm a total design-snob, so that's saying something…
[Reply]
I love, love, love Retailmenot! I love shopping online but can't bring myself to check out before checking there for a coupon. I love that they have the coupon codes rather than making you click through their link because 9 times out of 10, I don't remember that I need to look up a code until I'm already in the checkout process!
[Reply]
What I like best about Retail Me Not's new design is how fresh and simple it still looks. The colors match very well with one another and I like how the “Search” is big. I got use to the new design right away and it's not cluttered or messy at all. The white of the background pops and I love that they chose white! I like how everything is still on the front page, such as Popular Stores. Yay to a job well done.

I love how on Retail Me Not you see success rates for different deals, so you don't spend time trying to use codes that clearly won't work for the masses. On the flip side, if a code that has great success won't work for me, I know I am probably doing something wrong and will keep trying.

Oh, you must get the Loc Ness shirt. I love it!
[Reply]
I like how you can share the coupons with other people with the email form!
[Reply]
I think it's fairly easy to navigate. I like the top today's coupons and how it's right there to view and it's awesome they have the other countrie's off on the side…and that's easy to see too if you need it.
I didn't know about this site but OMG, I love it. It's bookmarked now.
[Reply]
I love her new design! cleaner layout, much easier colors on the eyes, and much easier to focus on seperate tips etc. I loved her content on last design, but couldnt spent much time there( like my own sadly) because the layout was just too confusing for me… I will definitely spend more time at her site now. thanks for the review!

I do not make an online purchase without going to Retail Me Not first! The new design looks great & the home page is easier to “shop”. (My most favorite thing, though, is that there was a Pampers GTG code on the home page–score!)

I love how the site is organized, with a big bold search bar right at the top – because that is the main reason I go there!
[Reply]
I liked how you could enter your zip code and find coupons in your own community! I did not see their website before – but it is laid out very nicely and organized!

I absolutly love how you have a section for coupons. Not just a specific kind either, but an array of different choices. Keep up the good work!!!
[Reply]
i didn't know this site existed until now. looks very easy to read and find what you want
[Reply]
I like the easy to see and navigate top header, and the very visible coupon codes, etc.! Excellent site!
[Reply]
I love Retail Me Not because the site is SO super easy to navigate even for those who aren't so technology savvy. I can not even begin to tell you how much hard earned cash their amazing site has saved me
[Reply]
I too shop online and alWAYS try and look for coupns. Retailmenot has done the work for me and makes it so easy to shop!
[Reply]
It is wonderful that we can save big bucks with the coupon codes. I saved a lot with coupons found at http://www.deals365.us
[Reply]
I like that it's less messy-feeling than their old design — I feel a lot less overwhelmed searching on there now!
[Reply]
I think Retailmenot is very organized. I like the “Today's top coupon” section because it shows codes that have been used a lot, as well as when they will be expired. Another thing that I like about the website is the fact that it shows the success rate of the coupons. This helps us out because not only are we saving money, we will also save time. Instead of going though all the coupons trying to find the ones that work, we can just go straight to using the ones that have high percentage of success.
I also like the fact that the search bear is really big and easy to find. It will be much faster to just search for the types of coupons we are looking for. Overall, I really like the new Retailmenot.com website. Because it is so organized and user-friendly it is great for saving money and time.

I like the multitude of coupon codes, and that you can check them with the rating/comment feature.
[Reply]
I love the simplicity. Before, I had a hard time finding what I wanted. Now, the colors are more subtle and the content is better organized. I can see myself finding more deals now that everything is in order.

I have never been to retailmenot.com but I was impressed. I especially liked the “today's top coupon” feature on the front page. Easy to find the best deals.
[Reply]
I like panic now and freak out. This would be perfect to wear during finals week. Thank you
[Reply]
I love the Retail Me Not design and layout now! Part of my problem last time was just finding something I could use or want and now it's a lot cleaner and easier to use. That and the layout is crisp, alot easier to navigate and just a lot more welcoming.

Hi there! I do not shop online without checking Retail Me Not first (and then logging in to ebates.com), but had no idea they were planning a redesign. I think the coupons are easier to read now that they're bigger, and the layout of the coupons makes them bolder — I like what they've done!
[Reply]
I subscribe to your email.
Thanks!
[Reply]
I like the coupons they have for different retailers. I was disappointed though that they didn't have an offer from JC Penny. I did like the other coupons, though. I've never heard of this site before, but it's a good one to have bookmarked.
[Reply]
it's so much more easy to find things now. i love retailmenot and use it everytime i shop online
[Reply]
I like the fact that there are links for Canadian coupons – this is very, very handy! Also, the coupon success rates are extremely useful and help avoid major disappointment when trying to save while shopping online. It's a very clean design, I like that it wasn't hard to figure out how to use the site, as a first time visitor.

I really love Retail Me Not. I've introduced it to all of my close friends! Everytime I shop I check for coupons on Retail Me Not. It may be the reason why I shop online a lot more and find it cheaper to shop online. I really like the new design too. It's definitely a more professional, yet simple, clean and sleek look.

I've been using Retail-Me-Not for a year or so now and I've always loved the site – but I really do like their new design! I like the color coding of the percentage the coupon works – that's helpful for just scanning down and looking for yellow or green ones to try (and ignoring the reds!). Thanks for the great giveaway!

I like the simplicity of the coupons so you can check them at a glance.
Green = Active Coupon
Red = Unreliable/Dead coupon ie success rate <50%
[Reply]
I love their new site design. I think it is simpler to use and has a really clean vibe. I love Retail Me Not and always check there first when I am shopping online.
[Reply]
I love how the redesign has made the sign faster! Not just in loading time, but in searching time too! Always a good thing

I love that they have so many great coupons and they let you know the success rates for them so if one isn't so successful you can try another that is more likely to work.
[Reply]
I love that it's easy to navigate and I can look there before I make any online purchases to see if any coupons are available, which there usually are! Thanks.
[Reply]
Retailmenot is easy to navigate and helpful
I'll try to return the favor— go with the LochNess imposter shirt! Squids are the next best thing. I swear.

this is great for frugal moms – always looking to save money. And there are a lot of categories – moving clothes and more.

I think I am going to try their coupons newsletter. I need all the savings I can get!

I like the search box at the top and how it says over 30,000 stores to search for codes

I like that they have store like Kohl's and J.C. Penney's (stores that I go to). It also looks easy to navigate.

I like the fact that you can browse the coupons by catagory. Great when you don't have alot of time.

I check retailmenot.com before making any online purchase (and I make a lot of them). I love that their coupon codes are up to date and the success rating saves me a lot of time. The new design looks great! I like that the success rating scores are more prominent now. The color scheme is really nice and the whole look is a lot “fresher”.
[Reply]
What I like most about Retail Me Not’s new design and what struck me right away was its nice, fresh clean “look”. I like to be able to go to a website and quickly and easily access information that I cam there to get. Many website I have visited that offer similar type services are just too plain messy and cluttered in visual appearance that I get overwhelmed and end up leaving the site because of it. At Retail Me Not’s you are able to easily see what features and options are available and quickly access the information you are looking for. This is a major plus to me! Thanks so much for the chance to enter.

From success you get a lot of women mbt shoes things, but not that great mbt shoes on sale inside thing that love reviews mbt shoes brings you. Shallow men believe in mbt shoes luck.Wisdom is knowing what to sell mbt shoes do next,
