Pinch Your Pennies


So I have heard a lot about this website from my sister, but have never really tried it until last night. What the website does it list all of the grocery stores in your state and then has their sales for the week. The program rates each item if it is a good buy or not. (That is always my problem, I don't know if it is ever really a good deal just because it is on sale.) So that part is WAY helpful! Then it also figures in the coupons from that weeks Sunday paper and lets you know where to use them. I thought it sounded complicated, but actually it is fun! Last night I spent $36.00 and saved $37.00! I'm still getting the hang of it, but I thought that was pretty good for my 1st time. If you want to look at the website, I have it listed on my sidebar.

Autumn told me about it and I have been looking at the web sit but I haven't had a chance to buy anything yet. It's hard when you don't have the store right there close.

I checked this out the day you posted this.
I already bought some clothes from Sears for 18 dollars! I hope they look good.
Thanks for the recommendation.
