cdziuba@aol.com Best savings tip is, if possible, leave the kids home when shopping. I always found that bringing the kids caused me to spend significantly more because they would see things they wanted.

george ashmore, gtashmore@yahoo.com. Coupons are gusually garbage--10% off some overpriced name brand--use generics. But some coupons are GREAT, so look carefully

use bing.com when purchasing online, you save extra.

My best money savings tip is to clip coupons and match them to your grocery store sales. A lot of these stores double coupons.

biggest shopping tip- have dad and the kids at home and shop in early am when meats go on sale/marked down.

ky2here said...

I save money by stopping clipping coupons. SEriously, I don't buy as much 'great bargains' and I don't buy things I don't need.

cookiert said...

My best tip is to match up coupons with sale and/or clearance items! The Coupon Mom website is great for this.

clynsg said...

My daughter and I frequently buy non-perishable items in bulk and split them between the 2 households. It sometimes doesn't save a whole lot in money, but certainly does save in time and gas spent on shopping trips.

Stacy said...

My big savings tip is I plan my recipes around our local HEB's meal deals and combo locos. I look at the deals to see what I can freeze to use later and what I need for other recipes so I can buy them when they are free with the purchase of other things I need. and then I try to match my coupons with the items that are not free.

hi, my best savings tip is to match mfgr coupons with store coupons and in store sales. if you can plan ahead and match those things up, you can get lots of stuff very cheaply. thx

dawns41 said...

My best savings tip is to clip coupons and merge them with store sales. Also bring your own reusable bags and ask if there is a credit for doing so. Kroger gives you 4 cents per bag..or 5 gas points per bag: your choice.

Lower Mitten Kitten said...

My goal is to save 100 box tops for my school.

clc408 said...

My best savings tip is to use cash only. Determine the amount you can spend and when it's gone, it's gone. Really makes you think about your purchases!

jennem said...

I use my credit card, but pay close attention and pay in full every month. That way I get a lot of money back.

csue said...

I shop at an Amish-run "scatch and dent" store that sells food and other items really cheap, and I buy at regular stores when the food is marked on discount when its soon to expire. I can always freeze some of it.

heaventrees said...

My best savings tip is to have a freezer and when your store runs a really good frozen item sale, STOCK UP. I just did.

randycur0962 said...

Buy groceries on sale,use coupons and price match , buy meat in large quantities and portion for meals then freeze...these 4 steps will add up fast.

guettel78 said...

The savings tips that work best for me are to: never go grocery shopping on an empty stomach or else I'll end up buying way more than I need or want (and hunger has a way of making me disregard prices in favor of the items I crave!); to stick to a pre-made list almost without exception; and to buy sale items in bulk and store or freeze if necessary. Thanks for the great giveaway!

My best saving tip would be to take advantage of coupons. I just started, and I save a ton of money each week by clipping coupons! Also, I save all my change in a jar and use it at the end of the year for chirstmas shopping, it adds up and the extra 100-200 bucks helps a lot!
