Save at the Grocery Store

Here are some websites where you can find some great savings tips. Go to the company websites also like Pillbury, Betty Crocker and hunt for specials and coupons. Sometimes you can find some great deals like a 5.00 coupon for a Brita pitcher. The top one is for the Portland area but I'm sure that you can find some for your area of the country or you can start your own.

When you go to the grocery store check out the ads so that you are prepared to buy at the best prices. Our favorite stores are Winco and Walmart because they offer the best prices. We also shop at Costco. However, watch the prices at Costco because they are not always the best bargains.

Sometimes the use of Manufacturer Coupons can add bucks at the grocery store if you usually do not use the item. Many times they are for prepared foods that are not as nutritionally best as cooking from scratch. You can find Manufacturer Coupons in the Sunday paper which can be purchased from Saturday night until Tuesday. Walmart has a magazine called "All You" which has a lot of manufacturer coupons.

In the Sunday paper you will also find the store ads. Sometimes the ads come out mid week. You will have to watch your paper in your area and also you might try calling and requesting the ads from the paper.

Coupons and rebates also come in the mail. Watch for leaflets and the ads they contain. However, use the addage that if you don't need it, don't buy it. Be wise about using these ads because they can reel you in and you will find out that you are buying much more than you need.

Have an email address just for couponing. You will get a lot of junk mail, but you can sort through what you want.
