Let me tell you something most Amazon shoppers don't know, and it's costing you. Over 80% of people are losing money every time they hit buy now. Not because they're careless, but because Amazon is smarter than they think. Behind the scenes, there are hidden tricks, silent price shifts, and discounts they'll never show you unless you know where to look. But that ends today. In this video, you're going to learn 12 Amazon shopping secrets that can save you real money fast. We're talking about the kind of tips Amazon employees wish you didn't know. And trust me, once you hear number one, you'll never shop the same way again. 12. Open in incognito mode for lower prices. Have you ever felt like Amazon's reading your mind? You browse a product, think twice, walk away, and boom, the next time you check, the price magically goes up. That's not just coincidence. It's algorithmic manipulation. Amazon tracks what you view when you view it and how often you come back. The more interested you seem, the more the price quietly climbs. But here's the twist. Go incognito and suddenly it's like hitting a reset button on Amazon's pricing tricks. One viewer from Ohio told us he was eyeing a cordless tool set, checked it three times. On his last visit, it had jumped 15. But when he opened an incognito window, not only was the original price back, but it was actually $10 lower. That's a $25 swing for simply using a private browser. That's a full tank of gas or a week's worth of groceries earned by clicking a different button. Sometimes the smallest moves are the ones that pay off the most. Let's get one thing clear. This isn't about hacking the system. It's about understanding it. Amazon's algorithms can't manipulate what they can't track. That's why going incognito, logging out, or even switching devices before your final purchase can be a gamecher. It's the kind of trick that seasoned shoppers swear by and casual buyers are just starting to discover. So, next time you see a price go up, remember number 12. Then smile, go incognito, and watch the savings roll back in. 11. Shop the hidden sections: Outlet, Warehouse, and Renewed. Amazon isn't just hiding deals, it's practically burying them. Most shoppers never realize there's a secret layer to the site, the outlet, warehouse, and renewed sections. These aren't clearance bins filled with junk. They're treasure troves of perfectly good products. Some returned, some overstocked, some just with a dented box. We're talking about items that are brand new or nearly new for a fraction of the original price. And the best part, Amazon still backs them with full warranties and return policies. Take this story. One shopper was hunting for a high-end smart speaker priced at 150. In the regular listings, it looked like that was the best he could do. But after searching Amazon Warehouse directly, he found the exact same item, same model, same warranty for just 59. That's not just a deal, that's a win. Most people wouldn't think to check a separate page, but those who do are saving hundreds, even thousands a year. It's like finding a VIP entrance to a store you thought you knew. Here's the takeaway. Amazon won't hand you these deals. You have to know where to look. Just Google Amazon Outlet, Amazon Warehouse, or Amazon Renewed. Bookmark them. Visit them first before any big purchase. Because once you've seen what's really available behind the curtain, you'll never settle for full price again. It's not about being cheap. It's about being one step ahead. Smart shoppers don't just scroll, they dig. 10. Use no rush shipping to earn digital credits. We live in a world that's always rushing. But what if slowing down actually made you money? That's exactly what Amazon's no rush shipping does. Instead of choosing 2-day delivery, pick the slower option at checkout. And Amazon rewards you with digital credits. These credits stack up fast and can be used on movies, music, Kindle books, and more. It's like Amazon saying, "Thanks for being patient. Here's a free episode of your favorite show." One viewer told us he made this switch on just five orders in a month and scored a free ebook he had been eyeing for weeks. No hacks, no tricks, just a smarter shipping choice. Think about it. If you're not in a hurry, why rush? Especially when waiting means walking away with value you didn't pay for. It's passive savings and it adds up more than most people realize. This is the kind of mindset shift that separates regular shoppers from savvy ones. Every checkout becomes a choice, speed or smart. And for the things you don't need tomorrow, choosing no rush is the most underrated power move on Amazon. Get rewarded for slowing down. In a fast-paced world, that's a rare win. Nine. Subscribe and cancel to unlock discounts. Now, this one sounds sneaky, but it's totally by the book. Amazon's subscribe and save feature can knock up to 15% off essentials like shampoo, coffee, cleaning supplies, even pet food. But here's the trick. You don't have to stay subscribed. Place your order, lock in the discount, then cancel the subscription right after it ships. No penalties, no guilt, just real savings. Take this story. One mom from Florida uses this exact move for baby wipes, diapers, and detergent. Her annual savings, over 120. Enough for a weekend getaway or a solid grocery run. The best part, she doesn't have boxes piling up every month that she doesn't need. Just the discounts when she needs them. Let's be clear, this isn't scamming the system. It's understanding how the system works and using it wisely. Amazon designed this feature to keep you coming back. But nothing says you have to commit forever. Use it when it works for you. Cancel when it doesn't. That's not cheating. That's shopping like a pro. Eight. Combine coupons with price history tools ever clicked buy now. Thinking you got a killer deal only to find out it was actually more expensive than last week. Yeah, you're not alone. Retailers are masters at manipulating price tags, but smart shoppers fight back with data. Tools like Keepa and Camel Camel Camel let you track the price history of any item. They show you when the price really dropped and when it's just smoke and mirrors. Here's the trick. Don't just rely on Amazon's flashy 33% off banners. Open a second tab. Plug that item into one of these tools. See if the discount is real. Because if it was cheaper last Tuesday, that deal is just noise. But if today's price is the lowest in months, then you've struck gold. Now, combine that insight with an Amazon coupon, and suddenly you're not just shopping, you're strategizing. You're stacking savings like a pro. This is what separates impulse buyers from intentional ones. And once you do it a few times, you'll never look at a product page the same way again. Seven, take advantage of lightning deals. This one's all about speed and knowing when to pounce. Amazon's lightning deals are timed offers that vanish faster than a parking spot on Black Friday. 1 second, they're there, the next, gone. That's why you need to use the Amazon app, set deal alerts, and create watch lists for your favorite categories. It's your way of being in the right place at the right time, every time. Let me tell you, I once nabbed a 200 air fryer for just $79. It was sitting in my alerts. And when that notification hit, I tapped fast. Gone in 3 minutes. That's how quick these deals move. You have to be ready or be left behind. This isn't passive shopping. It's deal hunting at its finest. And here's the thing, most shoppers never even notice lightning deals. They scroll right past. But you, you've got the inside track now. This is your edge. So, keep your alerts on, your app ready, and your reflexes sharp because the next crazy discount might just hit in the next 30 seconds. Six, find secret coupons outside of Amazon. Let's pause for just a second. If these tips are already opening your eyes, do us a quick favor. Hit that like button and subscribe to Frugal Daily. We drop fresh hacks every single week, and some of the biggest money savers are still coming up. Trust me, if you've ever overpaid on Amazon, you're going to want to stick around. Now, this one's wild. Amazon doesn't show all the coupons it could offer. There are secret promo codes floating around out there, but you have to know where to look. Sites like retail, me, not people.com deals, and even Reddit threads like our Amazon deals are gold mines for hidden discounts. I once found a 30% off code for a kitchen appliance buried in a Reddit comment with no mention of it on the actual product page. Clicked, applied the code, saved $45 just like that. Think about it. How many times have you checked out without checking anywhere else for a deal? That tiny extra step, spending 2 minutes on a deal site, could be the difference between paying retail or getting a steal. Amazon wants you to believe the best deal is always on their page. But now you know better and you're armed with the knowledge most shoppers don't even think to search for. Five. Make your wish list public and share it. It at first glance this one sounds like a myth, but believe it or not, it actually works. When you make your Amazon wish list public and share the link, Amazon's algorithm registers external interest in those products. It doesn't take much. Few clicks from a friend or family member can trigger internal signals that suggest increased demand. And sometimes in response, the price quietly drops. It's like whispering to the system that something is gaining traction and Amazon listens. I put this to the test myself, added two kitchen gadgets to my wish list, made it public, and shared it with my sister. She didn't buy anything, just viewed it. And the next day, both items had dropped in price by over 10%. Maybe it was coincidence. Maybe it was algorithmic magic. Either way, I walked away with $18 in savings without lifting a finger after the share. You can't make this stuff up. What makes this tip special is how passive it is. You're not using coupons, not searching for codes, not even tracking prices. You're just making your wish list public, something you already use to stay organized, and letting Amazon's algorithm work for you. If saving money could be effortless, this would be the perfect example. So, before you buy that big ticket item, try sharing your list. You might be surprised what happens next. Four, buy discounted gift cards from third-party sites. Now, here's a secret most people never think about. You can actually save money before you spend it. Websites like Ray, Rakuten, and Honey offer Amazon gift cards at 5 to 10% off. No strings attached. That means if you buy a $100 card for 90, you're locking in instant savings before you've even added anything to your cart. It's one of the easiest wins in the frugal playbook, and it's totally overlooked by most shoppers. Let's say you're about to do your monthly stock up. Toilet paper, snacks, household items. Instead of using your credit card, you buy a discounted gift card and use that for checkout. Boom, $10 saved in seconds. And that's just one order. Do this monthly and you're looking at $100, $150 back in your wallet each year just for thinking ahead. No apps, no coupons, no browser extensions, just smarter buying. And here's the real kicker. Amazon never advertises this. They won't tell you to shop with third party discounted gift cards because it cuts into their profit. But if you're serious about stretching every dollar, this is one of the simplest hacks with the biggest returns. It's not about playing games, it's about playing smarter from the very first step of your shopping process. Three, sort today's deals by biggest discount. Amazon's today's deals section is one of the most visited pages on the site, but 90% of people use it wrong. They click scroll aimlessly and hope to stumble upon something useful. That's a losing strategy. Instead, change the filter to sort by discount, high to low. It instantly reorganizes the page to show you the deepest discounts first, often 50%, 60%, even 80% off. That's where the real gold is. Most people never even realize this option exists. They assume the first few deals shown are the best, but Amazon ranks them based on popularity, not savings. By switching that one filter, you stop shopping like the crowd and start shopping like the pros. It's not about what's trending, it's about what's actually worth your money. And this move changes everything. So, next time you're browsing the deals page, don't just scroll. Take control. Sort by the biggest savings and start from the top. You'll be shocked by what's been hiding just a few clicks away. Frugal shopping isn't about being cheap. It's about being intentional. And this one-click trick proves it. Two, use the shopping guides tab in the app. Amazon's shopping guides tab is one of the platform's most underused features, and it's pure gold. Powered by Amazon's own AI, it studies your past searches, purchase habits, and wish list to deliver a personalized list of deals and recommendations. But here's the kicker. Many of these offers show up here before they appear on the main pages. That's right, early access just for paying attention. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by too many choices, this is the fix. The guide narrows things down, saving you hours of mindless scrolling, and it's shockingly accurate. One viewer said it helped her find the perfect set of cookware on sale, something she had no idea was even discounted. It's like having your own digital shopping assistant who knows exactly what you want. Using this tab regularly turns Amazon from a cluttered marketplace into your personal outlet mall. It's streamlined, smart, and made to help you win. You don't need a coupon or a code, just the wisdom to know where to look. And the shopping guide tab, that's your shortcut to smarter, faster, and cheaper buys. One, ask Alexa to track price drops. This one feels like science fiction, but it's absolutely real. If you have an Alexa device at home, you can use it to track price drops for you. All you have to say is, "Alexa, let me know when the price drops on this item. As long as it's in your cart or your saved list, she'll do the rest, monitoring it day and night like your own personal price watchdog. I've used this feature for everything from electronics to household essentials, and it works. There's something satisfying about hearing, "Your item just dropped in price." It's effortless. No browser tabs, no checking daily. Just ask once and let Alexa do the hunting. One guy saved $60 on a gaming monitor this way. All because he knew to ask. It's a reminder of the world we live in now, where smart tools can make us smarter shoppers. If you already have Alexa, put her to work. And if you don't, this feature alone might justify the investment. Because let's be honest, saving money while doing absolutely nothing, that's the ultimate frugal win. At the end of the day, this isn't about spending less. It's about spending smarter. Every dollar saved is a dollar earned and a dollar you keep in your pocket.
