I Love Saving Money!

After a scare of almost losing my job back in September I started looking for ways to save money.  I had played around with The Grocery Game for a while, but was never serious about it.  My cousin turned me on to CouponMom.com and Hip2Save.com. While The Grocery Game does feature a store that isn't on the other sites, you have to pay. Yep, the other two are free. Oh -- and ever since the list got a "facelift" it has made it hard to use. Yes, the sort and print feature is easier. It is harder however to find which deals to use to get your +UP Rewards or Register Rewards.

I was particularly proud of my shopping trip this weekend.
I spent a total of $5.98 at Rite Aid and $8.17 at Walgreens.
Oh, and that's not even counting the +UP Rewards and Register Rewards I earned on that trip!

Rite Aid - 2 packages of French's French Fried Onions
Walgreens - Diet Coke, Pretzel M&M's

I keep running into the problems of stores being out of great deals.

Here is what I ended up getting.
