Shop Smart, Save More

OK, I have a confession to make. I am not the coupon queen; I am really just a coupon princess. I learned everything I know from my instructor who taught me about Grocerysmarts and Teri Gault. "Shop Smart, Save More" by Teri Gault is full of precious information about saving money and using coupons to stock up. I refer to this book often for tips and advice. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is serious about saving serious money.

Relocation

I just want to update all my Savvy Saver readers on why I haven't blogged much lately. Our family is making a transition that I expect to last just a few more weeks. We have relocated and I am no longer teaching classes in Southern Nevada. However, I plan on bringing Grocerysmarts to Northern Califonia as soon as we are settled. More to come on that.

In the meantime please keep using the lists HERE and contact me by email if you have any questions. I am still here to support you in your money saving adventures!

All-In-One

I have had many people ask...What happened to the All-in-One feature on Grocerysmarts? I have been missing this feature because it is helpful in making a quick and easy shopping list if you are planning for more than one store. The All-in-One feature is great because you can look at all the stores on one page and make one shopping list instead of seperate ones for each store. Today is your lucky day because you can CLICK HERE to go directly to the All-in-One shopping list. You can also find it on my righthand side bar under the main Grocerysmarts link.

Birthday Perks!


About a week before my birthday, my inbox was inundated with offers from most of my favorite restaurants. How was I that lucky? Well, I had signed up for thier e-clubs online. They notify me of deals and promotions from time to time. The best part about signing up for these e-clubs is that most of them will send you a free "something" for your birthday.
Here is a list of my favs:

Lonestar

Chili's

Cold Stone Creamery

Macaroni Grill

Del Taco

Dairy Queen

Sammy's Woodfired Pizza

All you need to do is visit the website of your favorite restaurants and sign up for thier e-clubs. You will get emails for free stuff for your birthday. Some will even give you a freebie just for signing up! On my birthday, I had so many treats offered to me that I couldn't even use them all. What a fun Birthday gift!

How About that!

If you head on over to the Grocery Smarts website you will be delighted to find a brand new feature that will make your life just a little bit easier. When you click on the alphabetical coupon index from the main page, you get a listing of all the coupons you will have if you have been consistently getting the Smartsource inserts in your newspaper and also the Redplum and P&G in the mail. The new feature let's you type in the name of what you are looking for and will take you directly to the information about those coupons. This can save you time as you will no longer have to scroll down looking for the "Colgate" or "Kellogg's." you can just type the name in and it will magically appear!
