Joining "Incentive Programs" at your local Grocery Store

As you can tell without a doubt, I am a super bargain snoop. If I can avoid paying full price for anything, I will. At the grocery prices these days, you are almost obligated to use coupons. Now you can join various Coupon Websites, print them out and then cash them in at your local Grocery Store, but be warned ahead of Time that many Grocery Stores no longer allow this.

Albertsons for example has put a stop to that in my place of Residence (Las Vegas) a long time ago. Of course that doesn't mean that others no longer honor them.
I know that Vons is still accepting them right along with their personal Savings Programs, which brings me to the topic of today's savings tip.

There are many bonuses and privileges to be had when join the various Grocery Store Discount, Savings and Bonus Programs. Let us stay with Vons for a moment for example. Ever so often the heat in this town just gets to me or there are days when I just don't have the time to go grocery shopping. I don't want to compromise quality in my Meat Products either however when I am not able to go shopping. Now Vons offers a grocery delivery service in many areas of the country. If you are already signed up with their savings Program you will not ony receive email updates (if you checked that), but all you have to do is go shopping online and with your discount card you receive the various savings without having to hand carry coupons to the store. Now, that is not all you can receive Free Delivery on your First Order of $50 or more at Vons.com Add all the different saving up and you are making out like a Bandit.

Another favorite Store of mine to go shopping at is Smith. I have literally saved 100's of Dollars with their Savings Program. Since you earn points for each Dollar you spend and it is a very clever program you receive Coupons in the mail which truly match your shopping style. Plus you receive at times up to $5.00 off your entire shopping trip or $1.00 off a certain Shopping Category like dairy, meats or household items etc. You can sign up at the Store or online. Doesn't cost a Penny, but you sure can save Dollars.

Albertsons is alright with their Savings Program. If you are looking for Free Movie Tickets or a Discount Coupon to a Concert than this is the Program for you. I see them running special Promotions in those category quiet frequently. Otherwise they have their usual buy 10 for 10 deals.

Signing up to the various Store Savings Programs is free and in the end can save you some cash. The only cost to you is the time it takes you to fill it out, so why not?

Make a few pennies on mylot

Have you ever wished you would have an outlet for your opinion, but don't have the time to write your own blog everyday? Maybe you are the sort of person that loves to get involved in lively discussions with wide variety of people. If that is the case why not earn yourself a couple of Pennies along the way.

No, I am not going to lie to you here and tell you this is something that will make you rich or you can make hundreds of Dollars a month. The income you will gain from this will be pretty minimal, maybe somewhere around $10 - $15 a month, but if you are looking for a community that rewards you for voicing your opinions on just about every subject imaginable and discuss many different things with people of all age groups, why not make those couple of dollars in the process.

If you have a website to promote or a product you wish to talk about this is a good place to tell people about it as well. Why not? Signing up doesn't cost anything and you can do it at your own pace.

Why not give it a try and check it out. Make sure you stop by at myLot User Profile and perhaps participate in some of my discussions already on the way.
Hope to see you there!
