Today one of my favorite coupon sites, Retailmenot.com, launched a new site design aimed at improving usability and search speed. The new look also includes a snazzy new logo and fresh new user interface.
Why is Retailmenot.com one of my favorite coupon sites (if not THE number one favorite), you may ask? Because any time I search for a store name plus the words "coupon code" in Google, Retailmenot.com comes up as one of the top 3 search result spots. When I click through, I get no-fuss promo codes in a flash. Codes that actually work!
Now to be honest, I was a little nervous when I heard about this redesign (why ruin a good thing, right?) but I am relieved that the site looks pretty much the same! Simple, clean layout, big ol' search box at the top, plus convenient tabs for printable coupons, grocery, and community. Phew! What can I say, I've always loved the ease of use and effectiveness of Retailmenot.com, so I'm glad that not much has changed on the surface. Behind-the-scenes, the company says things should be running even smoother and faster than ever. Sweet.

I love the new redesign, the colors make sense & still is user friendly.

thanks retailmenot.com for making life easier
The new interface is definitely bigger, bolder, and more colorful. I'll have to get used to it, but it'll be worth it!
Totally loving the color scheme and font as well:)
I have to admit though, that I wasn't always a fan of the layout. A lot of the coupons featured on retailmenot were expired, yet still featured. I really like the updated look though! Much easier to navigate, and the coupons featured section has been cleaned up a lot (all active for the stores I tested!).
I love the dark purple at the top and then the pastel blue, green and orange below. The contrast of fall and spring colors is great, and means the site will look good and appropriate year-round!
It also searched really well. I usually shop in person, but I'll be sure to check this site whenever I shop online!
I also like the fact that the search bear is really big and easy to find. It will be much faster to just search for the types of coupons we are looking for.
I really like the new Retailmenot.com website. Because it is so organized and user-friendly it is great for saving money and time.
