I still haven't found out if there's a Canadian equivalent out there somewhere. My tip is menu planning and doing a major grocery shopping trip every other week. Our local grocery store has 'family appreciation' coupons approximately twice a month (10% off the first $50, 12% off the first $75, and 15% off the first $100) and I always make sure I do the bulk of my grocery shopping on those days when I can make use of those coupons. I also fill up with gas at the grocery store's gas bar, which gives me another discount coupon I can use in the store. This kind of planning also eliminates unnecessary trips into town -- a 15 minute drive away. I make the trip only once a week, get all my shopping and errands done, and the rest of the week, the van sits in the garage. It's easier for me to do that though, since my one school child rides the bus and I'm a SAHM.tammihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03803890115567631062noreply@blogger.com
