So here is the thing.
Should a person purchase 50 pounds of chicken if it’s $2.00 per pound?
Just say….”Of course not! That is not a good deal.”
To buy, or not to buy. How is a gal to know?
The best news!
You don’t have to go to 5 different stores and clip 5,000 coupons to get good deals on all of the items you need. Extra time doesn’t grow on trees you know. (If you see some growing somewhere, let me know. Will ya?) Shopping at 5 different grocery stores each week can give a girl a real headache.
Now for the best old news.
Walmart will price match. This is not a joke. I do it all of the time!
This past week I checked in with Deals to Meals...saw that a grocery store called Rancho Market had Limes for 33 cents a pound. They had a lot of other really great deals as well. I made out my weekly grocery store list, writing all of the prices I wanted to match on the list.
Then I hustled myself down to my local Walmart to do my weekly shopping. When I got to the check out stand I politely said to the checker….
“I have some price matching to do on my produce.”
“Ok, no problem. How much for the limes?” was her reply.
I’m not kidding. That’s how it works. At least at the Walmart I frequent. They are really great about ad matching. I usually take the grocery store ads with me, just in case they want to check the price I am quoting. They hardly EVER ask to see them.
I ended up purchasing 8 limes for 48 cents. It did feel a little bit like highway robbery. But it wasn’t. It was all legit. And that’s the truth of it.

I need butter and cereal!
I like to save on everything! Mostly cereal–we eat lots!
I'd love to save on produce!
I would love to save money on diapers since I am diapering two boys at the moment!
I want to save on BEEF! I didn't complain when my Dr. said I was low on iron. He asked, “Would you like to take pills or eat a nice JUICY STEAK?” “Bring on the steak!” (I said with a smile!)
QUESTION: Does Wal-mart only match prices of your local stores?
I try to shop the gorcery ads and only buy meat that is on sale but even that gets pricey. I would have to say meat, milk, and cereal!

I would like to save money on any food item…since it can get expensive to feed a family of seven! 🙂
Hello, Just found your site on Facebook through Mommy's Kitchen. I am looking forward to checking back posts. I would love to be entered in the Deals to Meals give away. I'm in a little town in Texas with limited stores so this would help out when I go to the 'big' town.

Super jazzed about getting that knohow-w.
Aside from the obvious desire to save money on everything, I want to save on my baking basics. The rising costs of butter, flour, and sugar are starting to hurt!
I would love to save on meat! Not the bottom of the shelf $2.00 per lb stuff either, I want the healthy meat at a good price!
