The next time you are shopping online, load up your cart, says Robert Pagliarini — but before you check out, look for a “chat” or “live help” button. Click it to open a chat session with a customer service rep. Type that you have a full shopping cart but you are comparison shopping.

This doesn’t work all the time, but it will often enough to save you some money.
