Savings!

Since our weekend wasn't too exciting, I decided to share some savings tips I have learned recently!

First, we do most of our grocery shopping at Kroger. Make sure you always have a Kroger Plus Card! This will save you some money at the pump! For every dollar you spend before tax, you will get a point on your card. For every 100 points, you will receive $.10/gallon off at any Kroger or Shell gas station! I always stick to the Kroger gas because it always seems to be cheaper! If you buy a lot of groceries, you can earn up to $1.00/gallon off! BUT, the points do not roll from month to month. If you read your receipt after shopping, it will tell you at the bottom when those points expire! Last week, I paid $3.32/gallon!!!

The secret is to find a store that is running an in store special on an item that you have a coupon for! Last week, I had a coupon for $2.00 off paper towels and Kroger was running a special for them. $5.99 plus $3.00 off if you used your Kroger card! That's right...I got 6 double roll paper towels for $.99!!!

One last tip! You can register your Kroger Plus Card online at www.kroger.com. Once you do that, you can upload digital coupons to the card!
