Favorite Sites

My favorite websites vary across the board but most pertain to saving money, gathering and sharing fitness and travel information and helping others.
While trying to save money I click on Shopathome for additional savings.:
REI.com because great deals can be found, especially at the outlet store. From time to time there will be a 20-30% off deal on one item. Since I like a good deal, I place multiple orders and have them shipped to the store for free.
Performance Bike also has a lot of great deals on bikes and cycling gear. Sometimes free shipping is offered, even on oversized items. Performance Bikes usually offers a 10% off coupon but at times will allow them to be stacked. Currently, coupon code 727 should get you 10% off and an additional 4% savings by clicking on the link above.
 Steep and Cheap offers flash sales on certain items for a minimum of 30 minutes. This site can be addictive so buy it is advised to buy only what is needed. If time permits, a quick price search should be done to make sure the deal is sweet enough to jump on.
Geartrade offers new and used deals on a host of items from clothing to kayaks. It is much like the worlds largest outdoor flea market. Items sold are from people wanting to get rid of things or items that have been returned without tags and cannot be sold as new. I have bought and sold items here and have been satisfied. One thing I noticed is that prices tend to drop by a few cents on a daily basis. I believe it is sponsored by Backcountry.com because their name is on a lot of seller listings.
Speedo USA is another good one for gear. Often coupons from 20-25% with free shipping over $70 are offered. Currently SPD181 is the code that offers 25% off as well as 7% rebate from the link.
Amazon is where I find deals on books and music especially since most items ship for free when $25 or more is spent.

For information on fitness, I visit:
Runnersworld to find out about all things running and triathlon related.
Slowtwitch for triathlon relate topics
Bikeforums  for ALL things bike related. This is one of the best cycling sites in the world.
IAMTRI for all things tri and race locations around the world
Raceplace events and race listings in California
Beginnertriathlete  known as BT is a site for triathletes of all levels who share information and tips.

Being a travel agent, I enjoy learning and reading about the worlds destinations and how I can help others with their travel plans. I like to visit:
Flyertalk  for ways to make and save money, maximize my travel earnings and gain travel tips from frequent travelers.
Tripadvisor to read travel reports
American Airlines for travel deals since I hold miles with this company.
