Lets Talk About skin Care, Beauty And Health Tips

Do you know which grocery stores are cheaper than others? Do you use coupons? Do you shop at multiple grocery stores because you know you can can some items cheaper at one store and others cheaper at another? Do you wait until grocery items go on sale to buy? In other words, do you put effort into saving money on groceries and other household items like detergent and cleaning supplies?

Answer
Without using coupons, typically Walmart is cheaper than Publix or Target, but Winn-Dixie is also very cheap. I'm not sure what other stores you have in your area, but stores like Raley's, Stop and Shop, Shaws, Dillon's, Save A Lot, etc are cheap as well.

I personally use coupons to save my family money. I sometimes shop at multiple stores to get the best deal because some stores will have different sales and I can combine coupons with sales to get things for even cheaper or sometimes free.

If I need an item, I will most likely buy it, regardless of price. Thinks like meat, dairy, and produce rarely go on sale, but when they do I stock up.

My weekly shopping trips sometimes require some time to gather my coupons, search for coupons that may be around for items I need, and take into account the sales at all the stores near me. Drugstores like CVS and Walgreens tend to have the best prices on health and beauty products and cleaning supplies. Publix has great sales on groceries and paired with coupons, I sometimes cut my bill in half.

If you're interested in trying to save money on groceries and household items, take a look at my blog! I post weekly deals from CVS, Walgreens, Publix, and Target as well as online deals, coupons, and much more. You can even subscribe through Twitter, Facebook, email, or RSS reader.

How can I print off coupons from the net ?

My pc is out dated and I can't download the coupon printer program to print off the online coupons. I know I can get coupons through my newspaper and the mail but there are tons more coupons that I can get online that isn't offer through my newspaper/mail. Is there another way for me to get these coupons that are being offer online without downloading this program?

Read the second to last paragraph below....

The best coupon website that I have found is http://www.HotCouponWorld.com. It has loads of information about every type of coupon you are looking for. There is so much information that you really have to take the time and read through all the forums to get the full benefit.

I get a lot of great printable coupon links off of this forum http://www.hotcouponworld.com/forums/printables/ Tons of grocery and health and beauty coupons

This site has also helped me to match my coupons with sales at certain stores and if you read through the forums will teach you everything you need to know. I save the most money shopping to CVS which I always thought was too expensive. When you use their sales and their Extra Care Bucks rewards you actually get so much free and many times you get what is called an "overage" which is where with the discounts you actually earn money so you get things for free and they basically pay you to shop there. You do have to put some time into it at first but once you get the hang of it it's like second nature. Here is a link to the drug store forums (Walgreens, RiteAid, CVS etc...) http://www.hotcouponworld.com/forums/drug-stores/

Also, another great thing is that they have forums for each grocery store. So you can click on which ever grocery store you want to shop at and you will see where people have already matched up coupons with the stores sales which is very helpful. (This is how you get a lot of food free or for very little money.) http://www.hotcouponworld.com/forums/grocery-stores/

This is another great way to get coupons... the following is a link to many different manufacturers. If you click on the "Contact Us" link on each website and just compliment their products or ask for coupons 75% or more will mail you coupons. Most of them are great coupons ( I just got 4 coupons for free Playtex tampons (6.99 value each). Because you do have to fill in your name and address you would want to use an auto fill program so that with a click of a button everything is filled in (ex. name, address, email etc.) then all you have to do is write a personal message and hit send. I make up a generic message complimenting the product and save it on my computer. When I am requesting for coupons I just copy and paste that message so I don't have to type anything. It takes all of maybe 15 seconds on each website for great return in coupons.

I know all of this information can really help you just have to take the time to read and teach yourself to really cut your grocery bill in half. I more then cut mine in half and that is not including the free name brand shampoo, conditioner, make up, face wash, body wash, and personal hygiene products.
