Milwaukee Area Grocery Bargains – 8/15
Groceries take a huge bite out of a family’s budget every year. By shopping for what is in season, buying loss leaders, and couponing families can greatly reduce their food budget.
My name is Kim and I run FrugalGossip. Every week I track the sales at Pick N Save, Sendik’s, and various other stores. I then match up the sales with coupons from the Sunday paper.
What stores do YOU shop at? Leave a comment below and maybe your store will show up in next weeks post!
