What do YOU save money on online?

The Internet is a great place to get certain things online for cheaper prices than you would at brick-and-mortar stores.  Often the Internet is seen as a way to get even new items at cut rate prices.  Stores such as Amazon.com and Half.com, that offer discounted prices and show you how much you’ve saved, and websites such as Craigslist and eBay, where a vast market drives prices down, have taught people that on the Internet, it is possible to get something for “virtually” nothing — pun intended.

Here are a few of the many things you can find cheaply online.

1. Cell phones and accessories.  You can find unlocked cell phones for great prices on places like eBay, and cellular phone accessories such as Bluetooth adaptors at any number of retailers online.  These things tend to be ridiculously cheap online — though you do have to watch for ridiculously inflated shipping on sites like eBay, where sellers try to make up the money they are losing by overcharging for shipping.
2. Other electronics.  You can find all kinds of electronics for good prices online, from 2 way radios to Blu-ray discs and players.
3. Collectibles.  An avid doll collector, I can tell you firsthand that there are tons of collectibles at great prices online — way more selection and way better prices than you ever would have found prior to the Internet, I might add.
4. Books.  Whether you are looking for a good novel to read for pleasure, or textbooks for your classes, the Internet is full of websites where you can buy cheap used and new books.

This short list only scratches the surface of the things you can find for cheap prices online.  What are you looking for that you would like to save money on?
