Twitter is definitely going to be hopping during the holidays, and it’s easier than ever to find out about the latest deals, coupons and one-day sales in one place.
I’ve compiled a list of 15 retailers, deal forums and cash-back shopping sites to follow on Twitter. I’ve also added these all to a special Twitter list you can subscribe to on your own. Just follow me at @ErinGifford and then access my Holiday Deals list.
Major Retailers
Amazon: Find hot bargains via tweets with the Lighting Deal and Deal of the Day. Another Amazon Twitter account to follow is @AmazonMP3 for hot music download deals.
Best Buy: You’ll find deals, but also ambitious customer service, including online chats and texting options to help with gift ideas.
Kmart: Find out about online sales, Friends & Family events and Blue Light Specials.
Staples: Look out for Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals.
Target: Every day at 10 a.m. ET, Target tweets a new Daily Deal.

You should add a few of the "buy handmade" venues online. Many artists, including myself, are offering great coupons and sales throughout the holiday season! ArtFire.com, Etsy.com, and many others.
Great list! I love following Twitter folk for good deals. It has saved me a good deal.
Awesome list! I'm going to link to you on BargainBabe.com on Monday when I do my round up.
