This week is Part 2 of Chele’s interview with Crystal Paine from www.MoneySavingMom.com Last week she gave us the basics for meal planning and finding grocery store sales and this week we delve into the art of couponing.
Crystal goes into great detail about the rewards programs at both CVS and Walgreens and how you can pay only pennies for your items if you use their rewards coupons wisely. She also raves about the sales at Target and encourages us all to “think outside the box” when it comes to saving money on groceries.
Listen in to find out how to “stack” your store coupons or rebates along with your manufacturer’s coupons or rebates to get free items. With some simple strategy, you could actually MAKE money from your shopping trips!
Join us as Chele discusses more ways to cut down your grocery bill with guest Crystal Paine from Money Saving Mom. Crystal has some great baby steps that you can start taking on this journey to grocery savings. Most importantly, do not try to slash your costs all at once because you will set yourself up for failure.
Crystal walks us through each step, starting with committing to yourself that you will no longer impulse shop and continuing with easy meal planning, finding sales at your local market, and connecting with other frugal shoppers to find the best deals in your area.

This week’s guest is Lisa Braverman from www.Picadil.com and she shares the story of her 16 cent shopping trip. Yes, she only paid 16 CENTS while shopping at a CVS drug store.
People have a big misconception that national drug stores inflate their prices and you should only shop there if you need medicines. Not true! CVS carries many grocery items and they produce a sales flier every week, just the like big grocery store chains. If you plan your shopping trips to purchase items already on sale and you use manufacturer’s coupons, you can save yourself a lot of money.
