We’re named PennySaverUSA.com for a reason. America is our home and we’re proud of it! So much so, in fact, that we’ve decided to offer an American flag-themed discounted premium ad placement package to everyone who places an ad on PennySaverUSA.com.

This premium ad placement package is the subject of the latest Save Money Monday installment.

This is an example of what your discounted premium ad would look like.

Before we get into the benefits of the new premium package, let’s review how to place an ad on PennySaverUSA.com.

With spring cleaning just around the corner, this is especially important, so you can make some money from your discarded items, instead of just throwing them away.

Placing an ad on PennySaverUSA.com is completely free. All you have to do is register for a free account with PennySaverUSA.com, pick an appropriate category for your item and put in the details and price. It is advised that you include a picture of your item to help potential buyers see what they are purchasing, but it is not required.

While a free ad (especially one with a picture) will get your ad out on the site, the best way to guarantee it gets seen by the millions of PennySaverUSA.com visitors is to purchase premium ad placement. Premium ad placement costs $20 and bumps your ad to the top of the listings for the category you picked.

Enter our new American flag-themed discounted premium ad placement package. For only $18 you can get premium ad placement (which normally costs $20 as mentioned above) AND an American flag icon (value: $2.50). That’s enough to get those patriotic juices flowing!

Any paid icons or packages you’d like to see us offer in the future? Let us know in the comments.

First and foremost, PennSaverUSA.com is an online classifieds site. We have online coupons, online contests and daily deals, but our core service remains online classifieds.

Place a free online classifieds ad through the PennySaverUSA Facebook page.

As such, we have made and are continuing to make major enhancements to help you sell your stuff through PennySaverUSA.com online classifieds.

There is lots of competition in the online classifieds space, and if we had a penny for every time we heard that Craigslist was the “new PennySaver” we’d have enough money to pay off the national debt. But the fact of the matter is … the “new PennySaver” is actually PennySaverUSA.com!  (the original PennySaver print publication is still going strong in its own right).

PennySaverUSA.com features multiple online classifieds categories in which you can list what you are selling. Even better are the newer enhancements for sellers.

A big one is that you can now place your online classifieds ad from our Facebook page! If you happen to be on Facebook and are chatting with friends or just catching up on your wall or news feed and remember you wanted to sell something through an online classifieds ad, you no longer have to leave Facebook to do so.

Just visit the PennySaverUSA Facebook page and click on the “Place a free ad” tab on the left-hand side of the page located under the “Welcome!” tab. Then just fill out the fields and your online classifieds ad will be published to PennySaverUSA.com. Easy as pie.

Get premium ad placement and paid icons for a discounted $12 price.

Coming shortly we will also have Halloween icons available for your online classifieds ad at the very low cost of $2.50. This will really help set your ad apart.

We will also have a special holiday package deal for $12 that includes premium placement (normally $20 by itself) plus the Halloween icons. In order to take advantage of this great deal, just make sure to click the “Check out today’s bulk deals” on the enhancements page (step two of placing your ad). See the image to the right.

Forget all the competition and go with the trusted source for 50 years when placing your online classifieds ads: PennySaverUSA.com.

Please let us know in the comments about any other enhancements you’d like.

This is a very exciting time for PennySaverUSA.com. Things are happening at a furious pace and we have a ton of news to share with you about our online classifieds developments.

You can now place and view ads on the PennySaverUSA Facebook page.

We recently put functionality on the PennySaverUSA Facebook page that allows you to place an ad right from Facebook. Today, we took our online classifieds to even a higher level: You can now also see listings right from our Facebook page.

If you haven’t “Liked” us on Facebook yet … what are you waiting for?

Another awesome development in the online classifieds category is the creation of our new mobile app for garage sales called MOGASA. We highlighted the app’s features last week, but now we have another big announcement.

In addition to MOGASA’s “Join the Hunt” contest in which you can win up to $350 as a team or $150 as an individual, the MOGASA staff is holding its own garage sale in Anaheim, CA. All the proceeds we make from the sale will to Charity Water, an organization that gives clean water to those in need.

A smaller, yet important notification nonetheless, is that we have added a new dog breed to our place an ad online classifieds feature. You can now place an ad for King Cane Corso dogs.
