Finding eBay and Paypal Coupon Codes
25 October 2006If you’ve ever bought anything through eBay and Paypal, you’ve probably seen the little box that says “I will enter an eBay/Paypal coupon during checkout.” The bigger question you may have is where do you find those coupon codes?
While there are several services available to allow sellers to give their customers coupons, chances are you are looking for a more generic coupon code that isn’t tied down to one seller.
Probably the best way I’ve found so far to find coupon codes is a simple search. Using your favorite search engine like Google, MSN, Yahoo, or Ask simply do a search for “(ebay,paypal) coupon code october”. You’ll have to wade through plenty of old codes, but if there are any codes available, you’ll find them eventually. Of course, change the October to whatever month it may be. November? “(ebay,paypal) coupon code november”. December? “(ebay,paypal) coupon code december”. Oh, and the parenthesis are search engine lingo for OR. You’ll get returns that have either of the terms inside the parenthesis.
Another way to find them is to keep a list of frugal forums. Many of these sites have areas where people share coupons and coupon codes. When you are looking for a coupon, simply visit each of them and do a search to see if there are any valid codes. Currentcodes.com is also a pretty good resource for ebay and paypal coupon codes as well as many other retailers.
Finding the codes won’t be easy, but the reward for doing so can sometimes be very nice. If you have any current codes, feel free to use the contact form here and send them. I’ll be happy to post them here.

Ebay and paypal promotional codes absent this year? I cannot believe they would just omit codes for this shopping season. Time to boycott Ebay/paypal.

I love ebay, coupons and saiving money and I am what many call an addict. I used to use fatfingrs, until I found auctionegg.
so if you want a few good sites for ebay check out fatfingrs and http://www.auctionegg.com they have a special dollar deals section and ebay misspelled auction finder, plus they give away a free windows program that I used that find the typo auctions.
Here is the link to the free tool if you want to download it:

I have found that http://www.Couponcactus.com is the best site for most stores. Sometimes you do find better percentages at other sites but they have combined coupon codes and cash back like no other site. When you combine both aspects togethor you get the best savings. Not to mention that have all the stores most sites have but many more. If you end up joining this free site, do me a favor and tell them 5565668 recommended you as I will get comissions as well. Definatley give them a shot, I would highly reccomend it.
