YAY! Hip2Save is on Telegram! 🎉 

Telegram is the app you didn’t know you needed! It’s FREE and super easy to use!

Listen, even though I work at Hip, I’ll be the first to tell you I cringe at the thought of downloading yet another app and giving myself the responsibility of checking it daily. I get it… it feels like a hassle.

On the flip side, I’ll be the first one to tell you if there’s one app you NEED from us, it’s this one! 🙌🏼

Join us on Telegram to see the HOTTEST deals first!

Since I’m not very tech savvy, I’m excited to make Telegram easily digestible for all of you so you’re equipped with everything you need to know to join us on this new and VERY exciting journey! ✨

Not long ago, a reader asked us why she should use Telegram when she already follows us elsewhere. 🤔

After we responded, we were thrilled with her follow-up message:

“I’m really liking Telegram so far! I like the timeliness and as well as having photos so I can scan messages quickly.” – Madison, Hip2Save reader & Telegram follower

What is Telegram? 

Using Telegram is just like sending a message. Think of it like texting or Facebook Messenger. It’s extremely user-friendly and you can even send notes, video files, and more.

So it’s like texting, but enhanced! 👏🏻

Why are we on Telegram?

You may be wondering why we’re on Telegram 🤔 when we already have our own Hip2Save app, we’re social on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and more. And, you can already get hot deal alerts texted right to your phone.

The fact is, Telegram is so much more convenient for YOU to get alerted to HOT deals right when they pop up… and it’s FREE, so why not?! 🙌🏼

You’ll have the ability to get notified instantly about the hottest deals, promo codes, legit freebies, and limited-time sales since Telegram is truly the fastest way to receive messages. We’ll even be posting some deals before they hit our site! You can also message friends and connect with more of your favorite communities.

You can choose to receive notifications instantly (which we recommend for time-sensitive deals) or turn notifications off and scroll through the best deals at your leisure. Even better, it’s compatible with your phone, tablet, or computer.

We love the structure of our Hip2Save Telegram chat because you can easily shop for the very best (and latest) deals, view photos, and head to our post to read more if you wish. Basically, it’s all our best deals packaged up in a concise, easy-to-read manner so saving money just got a whole lot easier and it’s all in one place. 👏🏻

I know if I’m scrolling through any app on my phone before bed, it’ll be Telegram. 😏

Here’s how our Hip sidekick, Nicole, uses Telegram to score great deals:

“Telegram is awesome! It can be a bit overwhelming with all the messages if people are chatty, but it’s a great way to skim through a lot of deals fast. Typically, I have my app muted and I tend to just check it periodically so there can be a lot of deals to sort through quickly. I love being able to read the short title under each image which cuts right to the chase with the item and the price or percent off. I’ll read whatever comes after it if it catches my eye. Telegram is such an efficient way to shop for deals.” – Nicole

    Long time user of H2S and the telegram app…so glad to have you guys on one of my favorite platforms! πŸ™Œ

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    We’ll even be posting some deals before they hit our site!
    not sure why this was in bold – feels like i have to download another app – and us loyal hipsters who dont want to download will miss out – feels icky – like we are 2nd best. surely not your intent, but thats how i read this.

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      SO sorry for the confusion on that wording, Mary.πŸ’—πŸ€— Sometimes it can take a bit longer to write up a post and have it posted than it can to send you the link really quick on Telegram. SO while we’re writing it up in more detail and adding in our best images, we can get it sent out to you real quick, just in case it sells out quickly or the price goes up. Just another way to try and get you, our valued readers, the deals as quickly as possible. Thank you so much for commenting. We appreciate you and hope you are grabbing some great deals! β€οΈπŸ™ŒπŸ₯°

    I don’t have room on my phone for any new apps. The last update made me take off several apps just to update my phone. LOL Thanks for letting me know though.

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      I can understand that, Pat. You’re very welcome! ❀️

    • Tammy

      Pat, I am in the same boat. But, you can also use your computer. Use the link posted above and you will be able to preview the site before deciding. Just to clarify, it’s in the box that says: “Here’s how you can join…” and click the “Hip2Save Telegram Link.” HTH

      • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

        Thanks so much for the helpful comment, Tammy! Much appreciated. β€οΈπŸ€—

  4. Kelly

    LOVE Telegram!!! Lots of REAL news there and I’ve enjoyed following Hip2Save there, as well. Hardly spend anytime on other social media outlets these days.

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Oh awesome! Thanks for sharing how much you’ve enjoyed Telegram, Kelly! πŸ™ŒπŸ’—

    Not a fan of the telegram app. This is so much easier for me.

    • Jessica (Hip Sidekick)

      Thanks for sharing your feedback, sla129. πŸ’ž Glad you’ve found the site easy to navigate and helpful for scoring great deals! πŸ€—

  7. Kelly

    I love Telegram for real news and spend way more time there than FB. I have enjoyed following H2S there πŸ™‚

    • Jessica (Hip Sidekick)

      We’re so happy you’ve been loving the deals posted over on Telegram, Kelly! Thanks for the positive feedback! πŸ™Œβ€οΈ

  8. Kay

    Downloaded then deleted it. Not worth it for me. Sticking to the H2S app only. I also bypass the emails, FB, Instagram, LTK, and now Telegram. It’s way too much.

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Thank you for your feedback, Kay. πŸ’– Glad you’re still enjoying the H2S app. We’re always here on the other platforms too if you decide to rejoin while the deals are HOT for the holiday season ahead. πŸ€—β€οΈ We sure appreciate having you as a valued reader.

    Just an FYI. Is Telegram safe from hackers?
    Although Telegram is a relatively secure messaging app, it has several vulnerabilities and security pitfalls to keep in mind: It collects and stores some of your personal information. It is often used with malicious intentions. It has experienced several data breaches.Oct 24, 2023.
    Is Telegram owned by Russia?

    Telegram was launched in 2013 by the brothers Nikolai and Pavel Durov. Previously, the pair founded the Russian social network VK, which they left in 2014, saying it had been taken over by the government. Pavel sold his remaining stake in VK and left Russia after resisting government pressure.
