Superfiller makes it a snap to find cheap stuff on Amazon.
(Credit: Rick Broida)Raise your hand if this sounds familiar: you have just under $25 worth of stuff in your Amazon shopping cart--not quite enough to qualify for free shipping--so you go trolling the site for something small and inexpensive to tip the scales.
Of course, finding the right something is never easy, so you decide to treat yourself to an item on your wish list...and end up spending way more than you'd planned. Amazing how easy it is to justify spending money to save money, no?
Superfiller makes it a snap to find "filler" items that bring your total to exactly $25, thus qualifying you for Super Saver Shipping.
Let's say you're $1.15 shy of $25. Plug in that amount and Superfiller quickly builds a list of about 20 items that match (or come close). Below that, you'll find categorical lists: books, music, office products, and so on.
Pick the item you want, click the link, add it to your Amazon shopping cart, and presto! You're out the door for $25.
Yeah, I know, we're talking about saving a few bucks, tops. But every little bit helps, right? And admit it: You love getting free shipping. It makes you feel happy and successful and smart. (No? It's just me, then?)

Free Shipping On)
There's a new Web site in town that has Cheapskate written all over it: Free Shipping On. Terrible name, great service: It enables you to search Amazon and eBay for only those items that have free shipping. It also corrals free-shipping deals from over 500 other stores, from Apple to Home Depot to WebUndies.com.
I particularly like the eBay search tool, as it drives me nuts when I find a seemingly great deal on something and then discover a ridiculously inflated shipping charge. Both the Amazon and eBay tools can be added to your browser's list of search engines, meaning you can use them without having to visit Free Shipping On proper.
While you're at it, stop by Deal Locker, a discount-coupon site from the same developers.
