Grocery store sales papers
« on: April 28, 2017, 05:35:57 pm »
Do you read the grocery store sales papers via online or the actual paper that is mailed to you?I prefer to read the actual paper. I always mark what I want to purchase.

I always read all of them papers i get in the mail and on line stuff , I shop the flyers and sales, clip coupons and pretty much stock up when stuff is on sale. I and have never been without something I like. Got a full pantry and a full freezer... every thing was got on sale and I stick to my shopping list always.

I have downloaded five programs/applications to my phone that: pay me for my receipts, provide coupons and freebies at the local grocery store, pay me for having two drinks a day, and pay me rebates for items that I purchase. I promised myself that I would not purchase items that we didn't normally purchase as people are prone to do. Just buying things that I would normally buy has credited me ninety five dollars in rebates; forty eight dollars for drinks that my wife and I have had, ten dollars for taking pictures of my receipts and I have saved over two hundred and twenty dollars on groceries and gas since the beginning of the year. I also clip coupons from the local Sunday newspaper. That has amounted to about seventy five dollars this year.

It is according to what I have going on.  Sometimes I just don't have to time.

I have recently downloaded an app called Flipp that shows me all the ads at one time. I actually prefer the sales papers because it is easier to see.

Both - depending on what I have time for.  Since I work in a grocery store I have the opportunity to look at the paper ads while on break/lunch.  And when I'm home I can flip through it on my laptop while utilizing coupons and Digital downloads offered on the companies website.  I do enjoy the hunt for a good deal... I just haven't had the time to hone in on them as much as I used to.

I prefer to read the grocery store paper while I am there. It makes things much easier while I shop.

I like to read the paper, however, lately because I've been removing clutter, I choose to look at the ads on my phone. Don't need any extra papers.

I do look at the circulars for ideas, but I also have a couple apps to my grocery stores that allows me to clip and get discounts.  I tried the coupons.com type site, but I wasn't going on there enough to really take advantage of it consistently.

 keep the actual papers in my tote so I have them on me while shopping in the store (in case I need them), and I browse the papers on-line the first day they come out.   That way I know  which stores have what, on sale.  It keeps me organized.  (Otherwise I forget the papers and don't have them when I need them in the stores.)

I try to match sales in the flyers with my coupons, and put those items on my list. I also get special coupons in the mail that are not in the store. Those help tremendously, sometimes saving one or two bucks each.

I am low-income, so I have to be wise with these. got $2.50 off each loaf of Brownberry bread that way the other day. Love it.

We don't get the paper ads delivered anymore so if I want those, I have to go to the store to get them. I usually just go online to look at the ads, match sale items with my coupons and head to the store. I follow Kroger Krazy on Facebook and she alerts us to great deals with coupons at Kroger. I'm a coupon queen and never shop without them lol
