Cash back shoppingCredit Cards & Shopping Clubs

When you’re shopping online or at a regular brick and mortar store, you can have fun and add a bit more cash to your wallet or coin purse by always using a cash back credit card such as Visa Platinum.  Cash back incentives on a variety of credit cards provided from 2% – 5% annual revenue in the form of a check to your address on record.

You can also receive cash back by shopping primarily at such warehouses as Costco and Sam’s club.  Of course, you need to get approved for their Sam’s club or Costco credit card, but if you do, that’s another 2% – 5% of up to $500.  That’s a nice little check come Christmas time!

Coupons

Of course coupons are the easy answer, but do you realize how much you can save by using coupons?  My personal experience has shown a savings of up to $15 – $20 in one trip!  That’s nearly 30% of the overall shopping bill!  Not using coupons is one sure-fire way to spend more money than you really need to.

Plan Ahead — Shop at More than Just One Store

Not all stores have the same prices.  So if you’re shopping for ketchup and beans at one store, don’t get the lettuce and the onions just because it’s handy.  Do your research ahead of time and shop at the right store for the right product.  Plan your savings and your shopping list then hit all the local grocery stores.  Remember, saving a quarter might not seem like a lot, but those quarters add up quickly.  When it’s all said and done, splitting up your visits to the grocery store might take a little longer, but use the trips as extra time to spend with your family.  If you have kids, it’s also a good idea to give your children the responsibility for different stores.  This makes them more interested in the entire shopping experience, and you can make a contest of who saves the most money!

Remember & Never Forget

Remember that shopping should be fun!  Saving money can be fun!  And don’t forget that at the end of the month that extra money just might allow you and your family to take an extra trip to the local theater or go bowling.  Good luck!
