Any couponers here?

I can use dog food coupons - Cesar Canine Cuisine Entrees. I have a couple right now for BOGO, and that's what Sparky eats. I pay 70 cents per little one serving size trays at Walmart, so any savings helps.

I noticed they had these at sams...sorry I didn't notice the price...

I've never seen them at my local Sam's. That's one thing I don't like about Sams' - just because one store has it, doesn't mean they all do. That and the fact that a lot of times when you find something that you really like and buy it for a while, then all of a sudden they don't have it anymore. Exasperating!

I have 4 sams not far from me and all 4 of them carry different stuff so I know what you mean!

At least you guys still have a Sam's - they closed the only one local to us several years ago.

I can't even imagine not having a Sam's and/or Walmart nearby. If I had to shop at the grocery store chains, I either wouldn't eat much, or I'd be in the poorhouse!

There is only one Sam's in the whole state and only about 10 miles from me. There's also one Costco and three BJ's, but they are all 30+ miles from me.

Thats how I feel, the grocery store chains are horrible with the exception of Winco. We have 4 costcos and 4 sams club and we go to all of them...my hubby loves just looking around to see whats new.

The only Walmart nearby I would not ingest anything from, all the food is dusty and looks like it has been there a long time.
I have my choose not only of three - make that four grocery store chains nearby (within 6 miles) I have choices between several stores for a couple of the chains. We have Stop and Shop, Shaw's/Star market, Whole Foods, Hannaford's, and Roche Brothers, so with all that competition, prices are pretty reasonable if you check circulars and shop accordingly.

And of course, I am blessed to have a fabulous produce shop - Russo's - that also stocks a huge selection of cheeses and deli stuff, too - http://Russos.com/ - their stuff is so good that they supply most of the high-end restaurants in the area, and yet we ordinary humans get to shop there, too! And often their produce prices are better than the other stores, and the quality is always superior, even if the price is the same.

That's one of the advantages of living in the Boston area - densely populated, but lots of choices!
