I want to help you live life better for less! I hope you'll take a look around my blog to find some great savings you might not have known about. You can pay less at restaurants, at the grocery store, on gifts, on prescription drugs, on fun stuff to do, on just about everything!

Turkey prices are up 30%, but you can still shop around and save big this Thanksgiving!
Here are three tips to make sure your get the best deals:
1. Check those grocery store ads (or check my blog every Wednesday). They deeply discount the products on the front page, you'll almost always get great prices on those items. If you're willing to shop around, you can really get some great prices. Walmart Supercenter will match any price in any ad. Make sure to bring those ads with you! I'll include my favorites this week at the bottom of this post. :-)
2. Know the coupon policies. Some stores, like Fry's, will take competitors coupons, like this one for $10 off any $50 purchase at Fresh and Easy. http://www.freshandeasy.com/Content/pdfs/coupons/fne10off50coupon_20101122.pdf
Print it out and save a cool $10. At Safeway, all coupons are worth at least $1.00 (even if their face value is $.10). If you start using several coupons a trip, the savings will really add up.
3. Figure out how much food you need ahead of time. We usually have 40 people at our house on Thanksgiving so I know about buying in bulk! I decided last year to really sit down and figure out how much food we would use and I bought a lot less. We still had some leftovers but not nearly as many as in years past. It was easier to prepare, cost less, and in the end, everyone was very happy!
Here are the grocery store prices good through tomorrow (check back on Wednesday for the new ads):
