#4. Add your wishlist to cart and leave it.

Your retailer would definitely reach out to you with special discounts and offers on those particular items to finish the purchase. In e-commerce terms, when a potential customer provides their contact information but doesn’t complete the order, their cart is stored as an abandoned checkout.

To recover abandoned cart, the retailer would remain back. In a recent Reddit thread, several Redditors confirmed that receiving abandoned cart email reminders had a positive effect on their decision to purchase.

#5.Sign-up and refer-a-friend offers

This is going to be a simple trick, use multiple email ids to accumulate coupons and the same can be used for future purchases.
