I love finding good deals or bargains at my favorite stores. Summer is also a great time to find sizzling hot deals and give-a-ways. Let’s be honest: the recession has been great for finding deep discounts.

The other day Jimmy Choo had 50% off everything! Even at 50% off, all I could afford was a stupid key chain. If you’re living my reality and still can’t afford Jimmy Choo’s at 50% off, here are list of websites that give you the head’s up on the hottest deals going.
