The Internet Can Save Your Family Money

Five deals from popular brands via the web.

Savings are easier to access than you think. You don’t have to hunt around town or wait for Sunday’s newspaper. The internet is chock full of promotions and coupons just waiting to be used.

This week, we hunted on the web and found some family-friendly savings. Get a free sample of deep conditioner to keep your locks luscious despite the summer heat. Or save money on your dental needs, courtesy of Colgate.

If you’ve got furry friends at home, a popular dog food brand has a coupon for some chow. And you can save on your kids’ appetite, too, with plenty of coupons from Kellogg’s.

And you might like cleaning the floors a little more if you save money on the products you use to scrub it – but probably not.
