Check Both Options

Often shopping websites offer reduced shipping prices when you spend certain amounts. There was one in particular recently where I was shopping, and I could save $4 if I spent $30 or more.  So I was happy about that (since spending $30 was easy to do). So with tax and the reduced shipping, my total was about $34.75. 

 

But at the last minute, I remembered I had received a 20% discount coupon in the mail for that website.  So just to be certain, I put in that coupon code and although I had to pay the full shipping price, my total was about $2.50 less!!!  And anybody who knows me knows that I'll pay as little as possible.  So it's worth seeing which option offers the best deal!
