The internet is perfect for doing both of the above in the title. Namely saving money through coupons, deals, and other offers by companies who are not publishing their promotions so much in newspapers anymore.
You can also make money online by taking various surveys which pay you individually, or by working on building a network of friends who use products when you recommend them.
Basically how it works is, you build a blog on a topic related to lets say beauty. Once your friends visit that beauty site they see that you have used that product. Obviously this is where trust comes into play. So lets say all your girlfriends are going to be spending money on pedicures. You know that there is a special online for a local shop which is willing to either pay you a commission, or give you a free pedicure when you recommend others who get them. This is the perfect opportunity for you to get something free or making some cash by simply referring people online who you know.
Facebook has become another hot spot for sharing deals and connecting with friends. Have you thought about building a community or working with a community of like interests on Facebook to make money on online? This is the perfect opportunity to let people know what products you have tested and what really works for just about any brand you can think of.
