Get premium cable channels for less each month (and cancel whenever!)

What is the biggest thing holding you back from canceling cable? If it’s that you want to stay up-to-date on your favorite premium cable networks, I’ve got maybe the best news ever!

You can get channels like HBO, Starz, Showtime, and more for a 14-day free trial and then for a few bucks each month.

But wait… here’s my favorite part… you can cancel at any time!

My husband and I got the HBO subscription so that we could watch the current season of Game of Thrones LIVE (which, by the way… you can go straight to the end if you want to be THAT person with the spoilers).  Once the season ended, we canceled the subscription and that was the end of it. No contracts, no one begging us to keep the expensive package. Nada!

Check out your FREE trials of Amazon’s premium channels!

Amazon coupons

There are some items that have coupons for when you check out. These are the best kinds of coupons in my book! The less I have to do to save money, the better!

All you need to do is click and the coupon is automatically added to your cart.

Other buying options (third party sellers)

Did you know that Amazon uses different people to bring them their products to sell? It’s called Amazon Arbitrage (and you can actually make a lot of money from doing it for yourself).

Basically, that means that you can check to see if other people are offering a lower price for the same product. All you need to do it click the button that says “New and Used from…” and see what other prices are available. This is especially helpful for books that you can get used for a very steep discount.

Get free gift cards

You read that right. You can earn free Amazon gift cards from Swagbucks. This is a totally legit thing and it’s even how I paid for all of the cloth diapering supplies for my sons.

Just do some super easy tasks (like watching a commercial or a movie trailer) and you earn your gift cards.

Get started with Swagbucks here and get a special bonus!

Get ShopTracker (earn $3/month for letting them see the things you buy)

ShopTracker is a totally free way to earn money by literally doing nothing. They are tracking trends as to what people are buying, but none of your personal information is at risk.

And did I mention that it’s free? All you have to do is sign up and earn your easy money when you shop online.

Get started with ShopTracker here and earn money doing nothing at all!

Share your Prime with family

No, this isn’t a scam. You can actually share Prime with your family members.

If you don’t think that you can swing that $99 for the year of Prime right now, go in on it with your family. You can ship to many different addresses with the same Prime account and can store different cards as well.

Get no-rush-shipping and earn credits for Pantry (and more)!

If you’re not in a hurry to get your purchases, you can click on the “no rush shipping” option and get a sweet $5 credit for Amazon Pantry and even a credit for electronic purchases.

Basically, if you get enough of those nifty credits for the electronics, you can download movies for FREE from Amazon! Every movie in my video library was purchased through Amazon’s credits. And I just needed to wait a few extra days for a package that I didn’t mind waiting for!

Get a free 30-day trial of Prime here! 

Open box deals

Open box deals are my favorites! You get a VERY steep discount on the same great products from Amazon but at a huge discount because the box was opened. There’s nothing wrong with the product (or Amazon will buy it back), the box was just opened.

(Pro tip: this isn’t just from Amazon; you can get sweet open box deals all over the place!)

Amazon brand

Did you know that Amazon makes its own brand? YUP – Amazon Basics.

Right now their selection is a little limited, but I’m sure that it will be growing soon. The big highlights are their batteries, office supplies, and electronic accessories.

But check them out! I got a paper shredder, a laptop stand, and my laptop backpack from them (yes, I’m a nerd) and they are all really great products!

Check out Amazon Basics and see what they’ve got to offer!

Subscribe and Save

If you haven’t checked out the subscribe and save option on Amazon, it’s a game changer.

I order our laundry detergent supplies from Amazon, and subscribe and save has helped me to never run out of detergent because every 3 months, it gets delivered to my door without me needing to worry about it.

Subscribe and Save saves you 10-15% off each item you buy and will ship to your home automatically in the intervals that you select.

They are also kind enough to email you before your box ships to remind you that you ordered the items. It’s easy to cancel or reschedule deliveries, too.


These are my favorite crazy money saving Amazon hacks that you need to try out today. And don’t forget, you can try Amazon Prime for FREE for 30 days!

(I did this on December 1st so that I could get all of my Christmas shopping done for free shipping!) And remember with Amazon that you can cancel at any time. 🙂
