The Grocery Game

The Grocery Game was started by Teri Gault some years back in California. It's said that by playing this game it is possible to save a lot of money on your grocery bill every week.

The basic concept of the game is to match the supermarket discount coupons offered in every Sunday newspaper. As you play, you will get a list of low-priced products along with the names of places you will find them. Moreover, you will also get the weekly specials and manufacturers' coupons.

Research is done by the owners of the game, and the best deals are offered. All the offers may not be found in the newspapers, and this game gives you those deals as well.

The discount sales at grocery stores go on in cycles, and it becomes difficult to keep a track of the next sale. This is where the game comes in handy. However, you need to pay them USD 10 for a period of 8 weeks for the services they offer for the store of your choice. You can participate and choose multiple stores by paying an additional amount of USD 5.

The best part of the game is that they offer a trial period of 4 weeks for only USD 1, and it's highly recommended that you go for this if you are a beginner. This will help you to understand the intricacies involved. If you don't like the offer, don't forget to cancel the service or else you may lose money.

Some people are of the opinion that, since the list of stores are not published until Sunday, it becomes difficult to buy things on rush weekends. By the time Monday and Tuesday arrive, most of the best items are found in limited quantities. This strategy is applied by the game so that they can publish the latest offers from the Sunday paper.

According to the owners of the game, you may lose out on some offers which may come out late and so the game displays the sales offers late. Many times, it has been found that the list of items in the newspaper ads did not find a place in the Grocery Game's list, or items in the game's list were not provided in the newspaper.

Moreover, the game does not list a coupon if you have already used it once. This is a major disadvantage, as it may not give you the best deal every time.

Once you have joined the game and paid the required amount, you not only get a list of stores where sales are on, but you can also buy items online with the coupons. The game gives you a promotion code which you can enter online and get items at your doorstep.

These codes give you a dollar amount or a certain percentage off of your purchase, and you can save a lot of money while buying the necessities. With these promotional codes, you will come to know about some excellent deals which are offered by grocery stores and supermarkets, and you can put them to good use.

All in all, the grocery game is an excellent option if you want to save some hard-earned money each month. However, it's not possible to play the game for free. You can use the trial period to see if it will be useful for you.
