Grocery Sales Week of December 14, 2009

More deals will be posted through the week at: www.moneysavinghabits.com.  Plan is to have Jungle Jim's, Bigg's, GFS, and Cub Foods up by tonight.

Also, on my sidebar there's a link to coupons.com for printing coupons.  Yes, these really work.  I use them each week.  Print in black/white for cheaper printing.  If you have questions on how to use it, let me know and I'd be happy to walk you through it.  I love saving money with coupons!

Watch for deals this week worth stocking up on:
Butter freezes well for about 6 months
Ham can be cut, cubed, etc and frozen for later (I do this *all* the time for ham fried rice)
shredded cheese freezes great for months. We use for mexican night, pizza, etc.

Happy Savings,

Grocery Sales Week of December 7, 2009

Deals for Jungle Jim's, Aldi, Cub Foods, and Bigg's will be posted on www.moneysavinghabits.com by Monday night.  Also check back during the week as I find more deals to share.

Don't forget to stock up on items you use.  I love being able to pick things out of my pantry for dinner instead of having to make a run to the grocery store - especially this time of year as the weather turns cold and the roads get slick.

Happy Savings,
Lawanna
