Grocery Game

From the MiamiHerald.com …

I was intrigued by an online resource, TheGroceryGame.com, that Gigi Lehman included in her May 15 story about saving money at the supermarket (find link at MiamiHerald.com/Food). She was enthused, so I signed up.

Two months later, I’ve more than gotten my money’s worth ($1 for a four-week trial, then $10 every eight weeks).

Here’s how it works: The site tracks sale items — advertised and not — at your supermarket. (I could choose Publix, Winn-Dixie or Wal-Mart; you can pay extra for information on more than one store.)

It also tracks coupons in the Sunday newspaper, and generates a weekly shopping list of the best buys — a two-for-one deal on paper towels, for example, on which you can save another $1 by using the coupon that ran three weeks ago. (You quickly learn to save and date those sheafs of coupons.)

There are seldom more than a dozen things I want on the 50- to 75-item list, but the savings have been substantial: More than $80 on my best week and never less than $30.
