SaveMore Scam?


I have bought one or two things from SaveMore and didn't have a problem (Peeled Snack voucher and a CVS voucher). I received the Peeled Snacks voucher and used it without any problems and I was able to print the CVS voucher but I haven't tried to use it yet so we'll see on that one. I just wanted to pass along this post from a fellow blogger so that you'll be aware of some of the issues people are having with SaveMore. If you do decide to purchase something from them I would strongly suggest that you use PayPal because they are typically pretty good about refunding your money if you dispute a transaction.

Christmas Book Suggestions

If you're looking for some classic children's books to either gift to someone or to add to your Christmas collection I highly recommend these two books:

The Night Before Christmas (Unfortunately out of stock but keep an eye out if you're interested)

OR

The Twelve Days of Christmas

Both of these books are classic and have beautiful illustrations! I bought them for my daughter this year and she's in love with the Twelve Days of Christmas because we don't just read it, we sing it.

Dirty Dozen List Update



If you are interested in buying organic products, I wanted to let you know the new Dirty Dozen for 2011 has been released.  This is a list of produce items that tend to have the highest levels of pesticide residue (even after being washed and peeled).  So if you are interested in organics, these products are the ones that you want to focus on:
Here is the updated list of Dirty Dozen items:
  • Apples
  • Celery
  • Strawberries
  • Peaches
  • Spinach
  • Nectarines — imported
  • Grapes — imported
  • Sweet Bell Peppers
  • Potatoes
  • Blueberries — domestic
  • Lettuce
  • Kale/Collard Greens
Those are the products you want to try to look for in organics if possible.  I tend to focus on berries, grapes and lettuce myself and I found it interesting that potatoes are also included in the list!
The Clean 15 include:
  • Onions
  • Sweet Corn
  • Pineapples
  • Avocado
  • Asparagus
  • Sweet Peas
  • Mangoes
  • Eggplant
  • Cantaloupe — domestic
  • Kiwi
  • Cabbage
  • Watermelon
  • Sweet Potatoes
  • Grapefruit
  • Mushrooms
So that list reflects the produce items that have the lowest amount of pesticide residue. So it isn’t as important to get those products in organic which is great news because many of those products are super cheap in stores right now!

You can print a handy little list to keep with you of the Dirty Dozen and Clean 15 here.

Tips and Secrets

I'll periodically update when I learn of money saving tips or tactics that I believe may not be common knowledge.

  • Many CVS stores start their Sunday deals on Saturday.  If your store is one of them there are a couple good reasons to do your shopping for the upcoming sales a little early.
    • A lot of times CVS will have similar deals week to week that may allow you to "double dip." When you shop on Saturday you get to take advantage of that week's current sales as well as the sales for the upcoming week.  For example, CVS may run a promotion one week where they mark a product down in price and then a promotion the following week for ECB (Extra Care Bucks) for purchasing a certain amount of that product.  By shopping on Saturday you'll get the sale price AND the ECB if your purchase meets the qualifications.
    • By shopping on Saturday you'll beat the rush and have a better chance of the items you wish to purchase being in stock saving you from having to get rain checks or make several trips to the store.
  • Hannaford sells the Sunday paper all week.  I usually purchase 4 newspapers each week for the coupons but last week I didn't go out to pick them up until late Sunday.  The two stores that I needed to stop at were both running low on newspapers and I was only able to get my hands on two (and didn't have the energy or ambition to make any more stops).  I went out today to pick up some groceries at Hannaford and even though it was Saturday afternoon I was still able to pick up two more newspapers from last Sunday.  They do not discount the newspapers so you will still end up paying the same price but this is great to know if you aren't able to get the paper on Sunday.

Are Wholesale Clubs Really Worth It?

Here is a great article that Teresa over at Money Saving Maine-iac wrote about her experience shopping at BJ's Wholesale Club

Another great perk that she doesn't mention about having a BJ's membership is their gas pumps.  I don't think the gas prices at the BJ's in Portland are as much of a deal as the ones in Auburn but if you aren't going out of your way to gas up there sometimes you can get up to $0.10 or more off per gallon when compared to other local gas stations.

BJ's also lets you use multiple manufacturer's coupons on some items.  For example if you are buying a large bottle of laundry detergent at BJ's you'll only be able to use one manufacturer's coupon because even though the contents may be equivalent to two smaller bottles that you might buy at another store, it's still contained within one bottle.  However, if you buy a bulk package of body wash and you can visually see that there are three bottles of body wash shrink wrapped together in one package they will let you use three manufacturer's coupons on that purchase.  You can still stack that on top of any BJ's coupons that you may find as well.

How do you feel about shopping at wholesale clubs?
