Hi!
I haven't posted in a while as I have been in the hospital. Not much fun but at least I am home now and ready to blog:)
With Thanksgiving coming up, there are lots of good sales out there.
I suggets that you check out Family Fare's grocery ad for this week (11/15-11/21)
They have 8 lbs of potatoes for .99 (limit 2). Also a 12lb or larger turkey is .38/lb
Check out the add online at www.familyfarestores.com Also don't forget to check out www.meijer.com for the latest Meijer sales.
If you don't mind waiting in long lines and making your way through crowds of people you should take a look at some of the Black Friday ads that are out there.
Walmart,K-Mart, Meijer, CVS & many more are already on line for you to view.
Go here for the latest Black Friday ads: http://www.blackfriday.info/
You can even put your e-mail address in and you will be notified whenever new ads are available for viewing.
My input is that Walmart has some of the best sales for Black Friday this year-they open at 5am. K-mart has some good deals Thanksgiving Day-so if you want to wear off some of your dinner head on over and start walking around the store:)
Happy Thanksgiving!

Giving to Charity
After you have started stockpiling items you should have enough to give some away.
Here are some ideas of places that could use some of your "extras"
1. Missions-in West Michigan here are two examples: Mel Trotter Mission (Grand Rapids) and Holland Rescue Mission
2. Churches-many times local churches have collections of canned goods or other items (such as health and beauty items)
3. Check with places like the Salvation Army or local firestations/police stations around the holidays and they usually are collecting food etc.
4. If you have collected baby items local pregnancy centers could use these things. Alpha Women's Center in Grand Rapids Michigan and Pregnancy Resource Center also in Grand Rapids are two examples.
If you need more ideas of where to give your surplus check with your pastor (if you don't have a church of your own pick one that is in your area).
Happy Giving!

Price Matching at Walmart
If you see prices you like at a certain store but don't have that store near you but you do have a Walmart-go to Walmart and price match!
This is a good way to get the things you want at the right prices!
The rules for price matching at Walmart
1. Bring the store ad (Meijer/Dollar General/CVS etc.) with you to Walmart
2. You may only price match exact prices/brands/sizes. For instance if Ketchup A is sold at both Walmart and Meijer at the 64 oz size and it states $1.00 sale for this product in the Meijer ad then you may bring the ad to Walmart and get the ketchup at their store.
3. Remember: If a store ad states 25% off or 1/2 off (or other non-specific sale price) you can not price match it at Walmart-they will only honor specifics!
4. When you get to the check out lane, let the cashier know that you are price matching and show them the ad
Happy price matching!
