If you're like me, you want to save as much money as you can when you go to the grocery store.  For some people it's a game, a sport.  For me.....not so much.



I like to hit the sales, and I will use coupons now and again but you won't see me on the floor comparing sale ads or clipping tons of coupons.  Truthfully, the small town  I live in has two grocery stores and a Walmart Super Center.  Not much choice.  Not too friendly for couponing either. I usually stick to store brands on most items.

I found this link VERY useful though.  This site has compiled a list of when items go on sale at the grocery stores.  Not all stores are the same, but the information is excellent.  I worked almost 3 years as a checker at a grocery store and discovered myself there was a cycle to the sales.

So, here is the link and Happy Savings!!!!



My name is Michelle Osborn and I'm a financial coach at Lifeway Personal Financial Coaching in Pampa, Texas.  I officially started the company in January 2011.  I obtained my BAAS in Finance in December 2011 from West Texas A&M University in Canyon, Texas. After 13 years of delivering mail, I resigned from the USPS in order to stay home with my son and three step-children.  I now do coaching from my home and help my husband out with his business as well.



I believe in debt-free, Christian based values. I try to pass those on to my clients and show them, they don't have to bow down to the big credit card companies. I not only teach about financial issues, but I help people gain knowledge & self-esteem to live the life they dream about.  I'm living proof that you can achieve your dreams.
