The local hardware store (right around the corner from our house) is an Ace Hardware. When we moved to the new house, we signed up for their rewards card. In the beginning, Todd was there every day to get something we needed for the house!

Well, we just got a $5 off card in the mail yesterday. We needed filters for our furnace. He ended up getting 3 furnace filters and a light fixture for the house for $0.81!

You cant beat it.

Kim, I shop most often at my local King Soopers which is owed by Kroeger, which are widespread stores I think....it is so close I feel like I can go often to just look for the super markdowns... Yes Donna, Pears does seem like a good product....like I said I really need to try to get more at 99 cents...and really pay more attention to Walgreens for some of their great buys...

This may sound minute or silly, but I've been using the same sample I've received from Head & Shoulders all week. Shampoo & Conditioner. I have enough for 1-2 more showers. :-)
