Online Shopping Lingo

Experienced online shoppers know that there’s a lot more involved in finding good deals online than visiting sites such as Amazon.com and clicking on the “Today’s Deals” link. (Although that’s certainly not a bad idea!)

The deals worth bragging about are a lot more elusive, so savvy online shoppers turn to coupon, refunding and bargain sites for help. Yet for online shopping novices, visiting such sites may, at first, seem like visiting a foreign country. You see phrases such as:

GDA! BBW B&M BOGO on soaps, HTH

And you think WHAT? Huh? What are they talking about? What language is THAT?

(Translation: Good Deal Alert! Bath & Body Works brick-and-mortar store has buy-one-get-one on soaps, hope this helps!)

I mean, it’s enough to make you want to TYHO! (Tear Your Hair Out – I made that one up.)

Before you click away in frustration, let me reassure you that it IS possible to speak like a native – you just need a guide to the terminology, acronyms, abbreviations, definitions and common word usage found on rebate and premium product lists, coupon and online code lists, and refunding and trading forums.

Each site you visit may have its own particular phrases, but generally speaking the most common terms are found in the list below.
