I love to shop at the true dollar stores like DollarTree where everything is a dollar. Home cleaning supplies are less than half of what grocery stores or WalMart charge. :)

I shop for bigger tickket items and non-perishables at Costco where I can buy in bulk and get substantial savings.  I get back a small percentage of each purchase, at the end of the year, which pays for my membership and gives me about twelve extra dollars.  Pizza, chicken, hot dogs, clothes are also considerably less expensive there.  If I am picking up produce for the week I generally go to the chain grocery stores like Safeway or King Soopers because I waste less and it seems to be much cheaper...almost half price.  I believe that saving money is more a habit of not spending it unnecessarily.

I like to shop at General Dollar and the Dollar Tree.  Mostly for cleaning supplies, which are much cheaper that your brand name stores.  Also I try to shop where the weekly sales are, if they are cheaper than the dollar stores.  The only department stores I have close are Wal-mart and K-mart.  Don't really care for either of them, so I try to buy what I need elsewhere.

I shop online every month and look for the cheaper prices for the things I want to buy.

I use coupons and get lots of free stuff at CVS and Rite Aid. Occasionally Walmart and Target will get you free stuff. They all have good deals most weeks though.

"Coupon matchups" are the greatest resource on the internet!  All kinds of sites match each store with the sales it is running and list coupons to stack on top of the sale, as well as where you can find the coupon.  If you haven't done that yet, search it!  It is a time and money saver that is worth it!
