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.

everything! prices go up and packaging gets smaller. Yes – I've noticed, but I think the people packaging the food think they're fooling us. It's outrageous! If I had to pick one thing it would be snack foods. Glad I don't have to say diapers anymore. Whew! [email protected]
I have yet to figure out a good price for meat. HELP!!

I would love to save on diapers. I have a ten year old special needs child, who I have no choice but to pay the outrageous price of $115 a month for. But also have a two year old still in diapers and would like to find good quality diapers for a great price!!

I'd like to save more on meat and cheese.
I belonged when it was first starting and was free. Would love to win a membership. I'm always looking for rock bottom prices, esp. with milk and produce and eggs! Can't believe how the prices have gone up so much! Thanks Lorie

Meet and Diapers…and produce…really all of it. Everything is so expensive!
I would love to save money on meat, milk, dairy, produce, diapers… all of it. Prices are getting a little ridiculous! [email protected]
Oh, and I put a link on facebook, too. [email protected]
I would like to save money on baking items (powdered sugar, brown sugar, flour, butter, cream cheese, etc.). I love baking for my neighbors, but it is starting to get really expensive.
I love to price match at WalMart now since I finally found a cashier that knows what she is doing!!!
This just might be what I need to help me with my monthly grocery budget, only if there was a super Walmart in my city 🙁
I'm always looking for lower prices on meat, cheese and canned goods.

Bacon! It is so high for so little and who can live without bacon? Amused at all comments asking for diapers, they are not put in my grocery [email protected]
I want to save money on meat and produce. It seems that fresh produce is climbing higher each week.

I'd love to save money on meat! It costs so much money and with three teenagers and a husband that loves to eat I would love to spend less on it. Thanks so much for the giveaway.
I love to cook and with the prices these days my hubby tries to get me to buy top roman and frozen pizza. That does not work for me. I would like to get deals on fruits and meats mostly. AND two little ones in diapers is breaking me.
Uh, Can I say everything?!? But especially things like tomatoes, blueberries and avocados which are ridiculous now! Oh, and meat, diapers, organic and natural foods, to name a few. 🙂
I would like to save on produce mostly, because you have to have that! We usually only eat the meat, cereal, and snacks we can find on sale though, so it would be nice to get those a little cheaper sometimes!

Produce. I'm too lazy or in too big of a hurry to pay attention to what a good price is.

I want to save money on everything! I have a budget of $200 a month for my family right now and I'm pinching the pennies til they scream…

When Deals to Meals come to Missouri – let us know! Sounds awesome!
I'd love to save on everything, but probably topping my list is produce right now. I'm learning with meat and dairy what prices are good, but still having a harder time with produce. I'm trying to get my family to eat more of it, but it is so pricey.
I've read a lot of books on the subject lately, and even tried to start my own price book to compare prices, but it is so much work – it would be way easier to let Deals to meals do it for me.
Hi. I wish I was a “coupon” person or a price matcher…but I'm not. That is why I love Deals to Meals. I can easily just print out the best prices and shop! It is hard finding meats at a good price…or brand names!
I'd love to save money on diapers. Diapering 3 is a big chunk-O-change!

I'd like to save on produce for sure next would be cheese! [email protected]
I am always looking to save money on Milk! I would love to win this! [email protected]
I am obviously a shopping idiot. I think I answered yes when you asked if you'd buy 50 lbs of chicken for $2/lb. So, that being said…I'd like to save money on ANY groceries. I must not know the difference!

I would love to save money on cheese/meat & on hygiene items! I've got a great little local place for produce, but can't seem to get the other parts of my budget in line!
I would like to know how to save money on meat and produce. Coupons for these items are rare to non-existant.
I neeeeeed to save money on groceries! Produce and diapers in particular. I guess diapers aren't really considered groceries but man are they expensive. Love your blog!
I would love to save money on meat, produce, milk and butter!
I would love to save money on meats, produce and dairy! 🙂
Produce! And meats! Heck, it's all expensive and it seems the less processed, more healthy items cost more.
I blogged about the giveaway!
I really hope I win!
