Cheap and Cheerful Chatter: Bargain or Not?

I've been following a few bargain listing sites on Facebook -- Babysteals, Kidsteals, zulily and Mamabargains to name a few. While I see some great products at super prices, I am wondering if these sites encourage the "I need it now" mentality for products, thus increasing impulse spending.

Cheap and Cheerful wants to know: Do you follow these sites? Does it increase your overall spending or simply help you target good deals?

  1. I don't follow any of those sites, but I find that I probably save more than I would otherwise spend by following the sites that I do follow.

  2. Caitlin, Which sites do you follow? I'd love a few more "leads" to conduct my experiment!
