    Anyone else play "the grocery game"?

    I just started doing this shit a little while ago, pretty fun shit

    basically, you go to www.thegrocerygame.com and sign up and she sends out the "list" every week

    in that list she tells you all the crazy deals you can rack up while grocery shopping

    it is pretty fun to play along.....I went to the grocery store tonight and my total was $179.23, after all the coupons and shit I scanned in my total was $102.65

    it is like $1 to try it out for 8 weeks, but totally worth it
    if you try it, sign up using my email [email protected] - I get free cycles for every 3 people that sign up under me

        not really...I ended up getting a few brands that I don't normally buy because I usually buy generic, but other than that our fridge and cabinets look the same

        there are a few new things I got because I got them for like $.10 and can't hurt to try...LOL

              Damn...saving $80 is compelling. I suck at using coupons, I always forget about them or lose them. Perhaps this game would be a better option

                between newspaper coupons, online coupons, those aisle coupons and also paying attention to the kroger "card" savings, yeah

                also, my kroger here doubles all coupons up to $.75 all the time

                  well, this is ALL about coupons

                  you are using the store sales and coupons together for insane savings

                  like, this trip, I got 4 boxes of Simply Pasta Salad for FREE because there was a "card" savings, coupon saving and double coupons.....that is one example...there were a few instances of that when I went tonight with various products

                  the cool thing about that site though, is that she tells you exactly what you need to do

                    Can I ask why you don't buy generics? Is it a social status thing, or is it just a comfort thing? Most generic foodstuffs are made by the same people who make the retail brand equivalent. Same food, different label. I have not bought “retail” brand foodstuffs in ages.

                      Thats cool getting the pasta salad for free because of all the added savings. -$80 is always good. Is there a public list on there of what super markets can get you the best advantage? There's no Krogers around here at all.

                      edit. Ah never mind, I checked it out and it only applies to CVS drug stores in my area, lol. I never go there.

                          Aldis if you have one in your area kicks arse. It used to bug me to go there, now I realize I can fill the buggy for 80.00 and it doesnt bug me as much lol. We go there and Krogers for other stuff we need.

                            Reread what he wrote one more time. You might not need to ask the question

                                did you not read what I said?

                                I said I USUALLY BUY GENERICS

                                I buy the brand name ONLY when I get it in the grocery game, and it is usually 75%+ off

                                  Thanks, Jace.

                                  My gal and I were just reworking our budget. This'll help a lot.

                                          Looks awesome. Unfortunately they don't offer it in Canada. They have it for Safeway just across the border, but not sure the hassles faced crossing back with the items and such.

                                            I bet the people in line behind you hated your guts. I know I would've fainted just by seeing someone rendering $80 worth of coupons in front of me.
