Psst...Amazon has a secret coupon page, and it's got markdowns of up to 45%

Super-savvy old-school coupon clippers can make an art form out of saving money. And though you may think online shopping doesn't quite allow for the same form of self-expression, you'd be wrong. At least when it comes to Amazon, which has one place where you can access a bounty of coupons — just like thumbing through the newspaper in olden times. You can see what's available, search for coupons from your favorite brands and generally revel in the thrill of saving. Amazon's secret page of coupons is available to you anytime. (Get a load of the categories list in the left-hand column!)

How it works

On this special page, Amazon offers up various discounts on things like tools, pet supplies, electronics and fashion. You can "clip" (aka "click") the coupons of your choice, and the items are added to your cart for purchase — the discount is applied when you check out, now or later. Don't worry if you don't see the discount in your cart right away — it'll show up at checkout.

You can also use the search bar on the coupons page to hunt down coupons for brands you like. Above the list of categories on the left side, click "your coupons" to view the ones you've clipped; this is a great tool for comparing discounts.

The "Sort By" drop-down menu can show various groupings: coupons offering the biggest savings; based on expiration date; and the most popular "couponed" items.

Details, details

• Coupons are only eligible for one item, which means if you buy three identical massagers, only one will receive the extra discount.

• New coupon offers are constantly being added, so bookmark this hub and check it regularly for up-to-date savings.

• Although you don't have to use your coupons immediately, there is an expiration date for each, so if you find something you want, best to get it sooner rather than later.

• If you return an item bought with a coupon, the amount you saved might be subtracted from the return credit.

• You can share a coupon on social media or via e-mail, so if you find a discount that a friend will love, send it their way (it won’t take away your ability to use it).

Head on over to Amazon's secret coupon page and scope out a slew of savings. But first have a gander at these products we plucked from the latest listings. Happy shopping!

"This stuff is awesome. Smells good, easy to use and it works," said a happy customer. "To try it out, I used it on an old belt that had seen better days. I figured, if the honey stained it or something, who cares? I was surprised that with very little effort the belt softened and fine cracks in the leather finish almost vanished. I treated the belt again the next day, and it looks great. To think I almost threw it away! This stuff is my new go-to leather care product. No joke. Try it. You'll see."

$20

The TP-Link AC750 extends the reach of your home’s Wi-Fi network while also giving it a much-needed speed boost. This little guy can cover an additional 1,200 square feet.

"My bedroom is a Wi-Fi dead zone. It doesn't matter how good my router is, I will frequently lose connection altogether or get a really weak signal," shared a five-star reviewer. "I put this extender...between the dead zone and my router, and the connection is amazing. I rarely lose connection. I generally have two or three bars compared to one bar. Most importantly, my bandwidth speed is anywhere from three to eight times as strong as it was without the extender."

"I was pleasantly surprised to find that it is precisely what I need for my small living space," said this happy, hydrated customer. "The water amount is sufficient for one night, the footprint does not take up much space at all, making it easy to move from room to room, and the cord is long enough to allow me to plug it in away from where the unit sits. Two of the best features are the two speeds and the soft blue light that can be turned off when the device is in my bedroom."
