There are so many stories about the state of grocery shopping in the media as of late. Here’s a recent report by Deloitte called “The American Pantry Study: The New Rules of the Shopping Game,” which covers changing grocery shopping trends with consumers: “American consumers have re-learned how to shop — and in the process […]
Guess who’s raising grocery prices NOW?
The state of the grocery industry just continues to get more and more interesting. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been sharing articles about some traditional supermarkets and retailers believing the key to future financial success is to be “more like Wal-Mart,” touting everyday-low-prices versus employing high/low sales cycles. Well, today’s edition of Daily Finance […]
Deals of the Week for August 9, 2010
Hello, Super-Couponers! This week will mark the two-year anniversary of when I began teaching free Super-Couponing workshops in Chicagoland, and… wow, what a wonderful two years it’s been! With the immediate success of those initial few workshops, my life quickly became consumed with writing, blogging, breathing, sleeping and dreaming coupons! (And I wouldn’t have it […]

Name-brand sales skyrocketing at dollar stores (and what the grocery industry needs to take notice of)
After last week’s article, “What is SuperValu doing to Jewel-Osco?” about changes to stocking, pricing and sales cycles at Jewel (which, if you haven’t read already, I encourage you to) a reader wrote to share another interesting shopping-related story with me. Thursday’s issue of Business Week has a great article on dollar stores and the […]
Clearance toys and clothes all over town!
As I touched on in Monday’s Deals of the Week post, it’s been a great week for clearance toy and clothes shopping all over town! Hope you’ve all been out bargain-hunting and enjoying your finds! As I discuss at great length in my Super-Couponing classes, both January and late July/early August are when many stores […]
What is SuperValu doing to Jewel-Osco?
It is in no way my intention to complain about, slam, or otherwise present Jewel-Osco or any of its staff in a negative light. I’ve publicly stated hundreds of times that Jewel is my favorite Chicagoland shopping destination. However, the amount of press their parent company, SuperValu, has received lately regarding their decisions for Jewel-Osco’s […]
Super-Couponing in Sycamore tonight!
Super-Couponing comes to the Sycamore United Methodist Church (160 Johnson Ave, Sycamore, IL) tonight at 7:00pm! This class has reached maximum registration at 200 seats available, so if you missed this one, check my schedule for the next workshop in your area!
What I won’t be buying this week… or ever.
So, I’m walking through Jewel and I spot an item in the dairy case that many readers have written me to say exists, yet it hadn’t hit my store… until now. “Shopper’s Value” imitation shredded cheese. For those who missed the news, SuperValu’s CEO has decided to take a more “Wal-Mart-like” approach to Jewel and […]
Deals of the Week for July 26, 2010
Hello, Super-Couponers! It’s hard to believe we’re in the last week of July! (Where has the summer break gone?) While summer’s slipping away, great shopping deals are not. Many of our readers have noted clothes and toy clearances popping up around town (hint – some Old Navy stores have reduced clearance by 50%, both Target […]
