Money Saving Habits

Print coupons at home for some of the sale items this week including:  Granola bars, cereal and more.  Each coupon can be printed twice. It’s been my experience that Meijer does not double print-at-home coupons but Kroger usually doubles them (just like coupons from the newspaper).  Set your printer to print in draft black/white mode to save on ink.

My list for other SW Ohio Grocery stores available after 10am Monday here.
