Hi Everyone, I asked this once before and wanted to revisit the topic since I have been thinking about it a lot lately. I’d like to make this blog a valuable and useful resource and I want to make sure I am focusing on the stores that are most important to you.

I currently post deals for Walgreens, CVS, and Rite Aid- as well as Safeway, Raleys, Target, Walmart and Kmart during doubles events. I have had a lot of requests for Costco, Whole Foods and have recently added Kroger and Publix. Are there other stores that you really want to see? And what stores could you care less about?

Please take a second to leave a comment below and let me know your thoughts– I really appreciate it!

    this has been a very valuable input to savings. I do Walgreen's, CVS, Target, & WalMart. We do not have any of the other stores you mentioned. However, it's always valuable information for others. ๐Ÿ™‚

    I have yet to find a blog that does HEB also. If you could point me the way to one, I'd appreciate it lots!

    What about Bashas? Maybe this store is only where I live though. Sometimes Bashas has great deals and does triple coupons.

    I too would like to see something about HEB if you could do that or send me the direction of a blog about it. Thank you for all the other valuable info you have provided me!

    I love your blog and appriciate all your hard work! I always enjoy Giant Eagle deals and we have Foodland by us but I don't know if thats just a regional WV, OH, and KY thing?

    Costco & Meijer would be most appreciated ๐Ÿ™‚

    As to what I could care less about? Rite Aid.

    Also…..RE Wags & CVS….I really appreciate when blogs make a point to share deals that *are not* RRs/ECB deals. I am not a fan of the RRs/ECBs….
    At least have a specific section titled "Non RR deals", etc.

    thanks for your site!

    Meijer would be great! I love your posts on Rite Aid, CVS, and Kroger, to. But, thanks for EVERYTHING you already do! You have helped my family save so much!

    I would love to see some WinCo deals. I know they have some in Cali, but I don't know if you shop there or have any close by. Of course, the fact that they don't have a weekly ad makes it difficult. But maybe we could have an open WinCo thread every week, and whenever someone finds a deal, they post a comment.

    Costco would be great, too. As far as I know, they don't accept manufacturer coupons, but they do have great deals sometimes. It would be very nice to be able to be alerted to them, especially since I don't go there very often. I currently have to rely on Slickdeals to report them.

    I shop at Rite Aid, Wags, Target and Safeway most of the time, so I really appreciate the posts you already make about those. Thanks for all you do!

    I'm also in Northern CA, and I love that you do Raley's and Safeway. I would LOVE if you would do Nugget Markets as well, but I think that is a small Sacramento area chain (but they have great sales each week!)

    I also agree Costco could be interesting… I'm never sure if it's a great deal or not. I tend to think it is better than regular price at grocery stores, but you can do much better with sales and coupons.

    Hi All,

    For HEB shoppers- Becentsable has a few listed here- I am not familiar with these blogs but Freaky Deals seemed to have a really nice list:

    I agree, Costco would be great. It would be interesting to have a list of common food/household items sold at Costco and the price to beat so as we are out searching for deals we'll know when to put the effort forth with coupons or when to just buy from Costco. For example I went hunting around for diaper deals yesterday and got (what I thought) was a good deal on Huggies for .25 per diaper only to find kirkland brand at costco for .22 per diaper. Thanks, Charlene, you do a fabulous job!!

    Please keep Rite Aid, you do the most comprehensive list of anyone. Thanks!

    The stores I generally shop are Target, KMart (double coupon week only), Winco, Safeway, Walgreens, Rite-Aid, and Longs/CVS.

    Since reading and using your blog, I now love the drugstores, RiteAid especially. Totally use Wal-Mart and Target, Safeway and Raley's.

    I'd love to see FoodMaxx. They claim to beat every competitor supermarket price. It'd be awesome to see what could be done there.

    Also, Winco would be great!

    Thanks for everything!
