The Couponizer Product Review and Giveaway

Written by Kitty on January 2, 2009

I have made a New Year's resolution to be more organized (with 4 kids, a husband and a dog this is not always easy). I am finding that there are many products already out there that can help me in my search to become more efficient.

One of them is The Couponizer, a product invented by Amy Bergin. Amy was nice enough to send me a Couponizer to review, and even better, one to give away to one of my loyal subscribers!

couponizer

If you haven't seen The Couponizer in action, let me tell you a little bit about how you can save time and money by using it. The Couponizer is a complete organizing and shopping system for grocery coupons, gift cards, shopper loyalty cards and other retail, restaurant, service and entertainment coupons. All of the extras make it easier to save money not only at the grocery store, but just about everywhere you spend money.

shopping-list

The front of The Couponizer has a sleeve to hold your shopping list, Amy's product comes with a tear pad to create your weekly shopping list. It also has two more sections to place coupons that will be used on your shopping trip and coupons that are to be handed to your cashier. I find these sections very helpful for organizing my coupons. One other sleeve I found holds the coupons that are expiring soon. I put coupons here that I really want to use so I don't forget I have them!

The middle section of the organizer has sleeves so you can sort coupons by type such as; Baking, Beverages, Breakfast, etc. In the last section of The Couponizer you can keep your coupons for restaurants, services, entertainment or retail.

Each Couponizer comes with a plastic zipper carrying case, a pair of scissors, shopping list, CouponTracker, CouponStacker and a great guide to get you started. The regular Retail Price of The Couponizer is $19.99 and I am sure you can save that much in just one trip to the store once you get yours to work for you!

Sound like a product you might like? Why not enter our Giveaway? We are giving away The Couponizer to 1 lucky winner.

    Money saving tip is to look at this website before I head anywhere to shop!
    A best and most recent find is I went to bed bath & beyond 50% Christmas sale with my $10 off $25 Yankee coupon from this site. At check out a 22 oz candle cost me 7.50 instead of 25. I used my credit at check out so I can earn products with each dollar I spend. I am stashing them away for future gifts.
    also please sign me up for newsletter

    cheryl nyquist Says:

    hello, buying 75% off baking supplies – that aren’t specifically Christmas looking can allow you to give gifts in the winter months……..cheaply……snowmen work until March…….at least here in the midwest.

  3. Julie

    Julie Says:

    My best tip is to always see if you can find a coupon code (for money off or free shipping) when ordering online. I talk to people all the time who don’t know you can get these kinds of coupons. (I just subscribed.)


  4. SANDY

    SANDY Says:

    I know alot of people stockpile, but I believe in buying what you know you are going to use or can donate- not a good idea or good deal if its gonna get tossed

  8. AB

    AB Says:

    I think my best money saving tip is to plan — especially when going to the grocery store. Make a list and stick to it – so as not to be sucked into impulse items you either don’t need or aren’t good for you!


  9. AB

    AB Says:

    Tweeted about this!!


  10. B. Johnson

    B. Johnson Says:

    I stopped subscribing to long distance service with my phone company because I hardly made any long distance calls…maybe 1 a week. Instead, I bought a calling card with a low per-minute rate. What a difference!!


  11. Pamela Brint

    Pamela Brint Says:

    money saving tip: stock piles are ok. Once a year I have a garage sale and sell surplus. Sometimes I ebay them. Then when I need a gift, I make a basket of goodies. This has always went well.
    I’m also going to sign up for this newsletter, as it looks like a good one.

  15. Catherine L

    Catherine L Says:

    What a great item! These days I am cutting more coupons than ever. My best saving tip is using my leftovers to make my lunches ahead of time and freezing them. All I have to do is pop a meal in the microwave at work and I have a great lunch!


  16. Tracy H.

    Tracy H. Says:

    Oh man I’m never organized enough with coupons. The best money saving tip I have is to get a chest freezer and buy your meat from the butcher by the 1/4 or 1/2. Meat is cheaper in bulk and always tastes better from the butcher.

    tiffany lane Says:

    i need to get organized to save money.


  18. D. Martin

    D. Martin Says:

  19. joni chadwell

    joni chadwell Says:

    I always use a site that pays you to go through them to place an order at another site. I am referring to Ebates.com for example. I always search for discount codes and codes for free shipping.I also take advantage of local coupon packs for retailers around town.

    cathy miller Says:

    My best tip for me at least is if I don’t go to the store I do not impulse shop, I go by a grocery list once a week and that is it.


  27. Tina

    Tina Says:

    Shop with a list! Saves me from buying duplicates of things I already have at home.

    i always use coupons so this would help me to stay organized..thanks..


  30. Theresa Shafer

    Theresa Shafer Says:

    Only buy items that you can use. The most expensive items are those you do not use. So even if you do have a coupon, it is more expensive if you waste the food.


  31. Dawn

    Dawn Says:

    With the economy the way it is right now, I have just recently started using coupons. I am so unorganized with them! Coupons are really helping me save money at the grocery store!


  32. Dawn

    Dawn Says:

    I subscribed to your newsletter!

  33. Coupon Mommie Says:

    My best tip is to always carry my coupons with me. I left them at the house once when we went to the in-laws. Ended up stopping to pickup some drinks for dinner and low-and-behold I saw something on clearance for .49 while my $1.50 coupon was at home. Talk about OVERAGE city and me without coupons!

    So my tip is to ALWAYS HAVE YOUR COUPONS WITH YOU!

    I could use this organizer and coupons. I can never keep track of my coupons.My best money saving tip would be to not buy all them store cleaning products. I just use borax, baking soda, vinagar. All these things are under a dollar and clean everything ion your home.Also very enviromentally freindly:-)


  57. Kristy

    Kristy Says:

    The best money saver for me is my coupons. I always take the time to have them organized and I make sure I take them with me always. Also, I look for coupons wherever I go. You’d be surprised where you can find them!


  58. Carolyn S

    Carolyn S Says:

    My best money saving tip is no matter how cheap it is, do not buy it if you won’t use it. Buying something and bringing it home and not using it is such a big waste of money, and space.

  117. Tara

    Tara Says:

    The way that I save the most is by shopping yard sales. You can save a ton if you’re paying under $1 for almost everything.

  118. Ebie Says:

    never pay full price – if you can’t get a discount ask when it will go on sale and tell the clerk you’ll come back then, sometimes they’ll give you a 10% discount just to buy it right now.

    Denice Giersch Says:

    I have clipped coupons for 30+ years. Now that my twin daughters are out on their own, they too have learned that you do save money by taking the time to clip. They know that my motto has always been to eat the best I can for as little money as possible.


  128. Margaret J

    Margaret J Says:

    I love couponing and even pay attention when stores say they will triple or quadruple small coupons, for up to a $1 in savings. I keep my cut-out coupons in a file by month, so that I can keep a close eye on the ones that are due to expire. Isn’t it maddening to miss a $1 coupon because it expired! Yikes! And I did subscribe to the almost daily email!


  129. Annette

    Annette Says:

    Shannon Says:

    My best moving saving tip is to plan ahead and stick to a list! If you do that then you don’t buy extras and use the coupons you have on the products you need. I love using coupons but I wish I was just more organized in using them!

  142. David Clark

    David Clark Says:

    My secret for saving money is buying more than 1 newspaper when I know there’s coupons inside. I also go to multiple online sources for printable coupons. Most of those can be printed at least twice. Most people who clip coupons have a family. Buying one of something usually doesn’t cut it. Having multiples of the same coupon allows you to fully take advantage of sale prices at the store. I have a store by me that will take 2 coupons when buying a buy one get one free. Test those registers at the local store. Usually you can use 2 coupons on the same item if one is a manufacturers coupon and the other is a store coupon.

    Thanks for the contest!


  143. Beverley Justice

    Beverley Justice Says:

    We start with the list of what we need, then we review the store circular, then we gather the coupons for what is on the list. We only shop from the list.

  148. Holly

    Holly Says:

    I do the Walgreens Rebate. I like to combine the rebate with a coupon. I come out ahead on some items. I have the rebate put onto a Walgreen’s Gift Card and get 10% more back. Then the next month use the gift card I just got to buy the rebate items. I have been reloading the same gift card for over a year now.

  152. Kyle Banderman

    Kyle Banderman Says:

    Don’t buy something you won’t use just because you have a coupon for it. Maybe you could start a coupon club or find other people that you could swap coupons with so you can both benefit.

  154. Joyce

    Joyce Says:

    I use eBay for lots of things that I would buy at stores. Even including the shipping price, I save big $$. For instance, one of my favorite Olay products is about $28 at the store, but I can get it for about $12 total on eBay. I get designer clothes with tags on them for less than 1/10 of the retail price sometimes. I rarely shop in retail stores anymore. Even Wal-Mart seems pricey now!

  159. Virginia Briguglio

    Virginia Briguglio Says:

    Plan your shopping as much as possible to the sales flyer and pull out all the coupons you have the go with sales items at each store (that are in the weekly ads) Try to plan at least 5 mights meals that way and then have one night midweek as a leftover/clean out fridge night. This leaves one night to do as you must, eat out, not eat, mooch off friends.

  181. Kirsten Goodreau

    Kirsten Goodreau Says:

    Always try to stack your manufacturer coupons with specific store coupons, rebates and in-store sales. Try to clip more than one coupon for items that you use/buy a lot (I always ask my family members to save their coupon inserts for me) – they will come in really handy especially during B1G1 sales! :)

    I have found some great deals on summer clothing at Kohl’s Department store. I have found boys shorts for $2.50 and women’s short sleeve/sleeveless shirts for $1.40 to $3.00. Most of the time these deals continue through out January as I believe they are cleaning out their stock rooms.

  184. Melissa Doyle Says:

    My biggest tip to those starting out is make a complete list before going to the store, then stick to it! Plan out your meals for the week before making the list. And check the ads for your stores while you’re planning the meals and only have meals with food purchased on sale. Stack your coupons on top of a sale! That’s how we stick to meals $5-6 a pc!

    Deb Says:

    I do most of my shopping at one store (Krogers) to use the following benefits: double coupons, % off on fuel purchases, & registered store card w/U-Promise for additional college savings for grandson. Other items that I need I usually p/up wherever I can find the cheapest price. If I watch sales, a lot of items (w/double coupons) can be purchased for free at Krogers. A couple of months ago, I got $63.oo worth of items at Krogers (including toothpaste & brushes, gatorade) for a little over $2.00 (97 cents was tax).

  190. Maureen Gray

    Maureen Gray Says:

    My tip this year is to reduce costs on cell phone, cable TV and internet and home phone. I called my local phone company and went with less expensive plans on everything. It’s one way to cut costs without giving up those services.

    I buy holiday gifts right after the holiday at a great discount. And not just Christmas gifts; buy your Valentine’s Day gifts/cards, Mother’s Day gifts etc. right after the holiday for next year.

  193. Kathleen Corbett Says:

    Go straight to the clearance sections of any store, best deals. Use store that double coupons, frequent store like Dollar, Big Lots, job lot, stores that are closing.
    Would love this couponizer, right now I classify my coupons in white letter envelopes and always keep them in the car.

  194. Diane OBrien

    Diane OBrien Says:

    Always, and ONLY, buy non-perishables, such as paper towels, TP, napkins, cleaning supplies, canned goods, etc. when they are on a super sale AND you have great coupons that you can hopefully double or even triple. And don’t forget to take advantage of every rebate you can find on things you routinely use. Rebates have kind of fallen by the wayside, but there are still some great ones out there if you pay attention!

    Gail Says:

    I depend on coupon websites now since the AJC Sunday paper is no longer available in my area. Thanks to you I can still get coupons!


  199. Addie Duffy

    Addie Duffy Says:

    I wait for all the grocery store flyers to come on Tues and then go on coupon websites and print out the coupons I need for the sale item. I make a list of what I need for the week and try to stay with the list. If something is unadvertised at the store, which I use and a good price, I will of course purchase the sale item as well.


  200. shon

    shon Says:

    I couldn’t read ALL of the tips, so I hope this isn’t already posted…I always pay cash for groceries. I follow Dave Ramsey…when the cash is gone, it’s gone. You’re a LOT less tempted to stray from your shopping list. I’ve recently started making a “weekly” menu, making a list of things that I don’t already have on-hand and stick to that list. I’ve saved $200.00 just in the past 2 weeks!! AND the family sees the menu on the fridge, so I don’t have to answer “What’s for dinner?” 3 times a day! Oh, and I ALWAYS leave the hubby and kids at home! ;)


  201. Holly Duncan

    Holly Duncan Says:

    I always sign up with restaurant websites (Macaroni Grill, Maggiano’s, Baskin Robbins, Mimi’s, etc.) and enter my birthday and anniversary. They will send you free coupons for cake (Macaroni Grill), $10 off a meal (Maggiano’s), free scoop ofice cream on your b-day (Baskin Robbins), Free breakfast coupon (Mimi’s)and so on. They will also email you special promotions. It saves A LOT of money! I am already signed up for your newsletter. Thanks!

  213. Margaret

    Margaret Says:

    Learn where the mark-down racks are in all stores. Stores will take coupons on these products, too, although they may have to hand ring them. With really good sales, you can get a whole lot of items free or nearly free. Do watch product expiration dates on these items, though. They often aren’t good for stockpiling.

    Margaret Says:

    rradiogirl Says:

    I LOVE to travel! However, we’re a one-income family so I have to plan well so I don’t have to cut corners too severely in order to get to actually enjoy our vacation time! We ALWAYS save money by staying with friends OR borrowing friends’ campers OR house swapping with friends in places we want to visit. For example, when we travel to TN, we camp out in our friends’ camper in their driveway! We’re not obligated to their schedule since we’re technically apart from their house but we still get to spend time with them and stay FREE!


  229. Julia Ramirez

    Julia Ramirez Says:

    This looks great! It is sad that I have wasted so much money by NOT using coupons.

    This little Gem will make couponing affective, easy, and up to date!

    I ad match food grocery and non grocery items from Target, Walgreens and local stores and if I also have a coupon I save even more. I also wait until after every Holiday to buy wrapping paper and or candy and use that for up coming events at school so long it doesn’t have the particular holiday colors and such. I’ve gone to a store and brought home 4 bags of groceries and with my ad matches and coupons I only spent $30. With today’s prices you gotta save when and where you can.

    Plan what you’re going to buy and match coupons to those purchases if it will save you money. Sometimes my regular brand is cheaper than another brand even with a coupon. In that case, I just buy what I know I like and forget about the coupon.

    Lynn Says:

    Being a mom of 4 kids, a husband and a dog I can fully relate to your organization issues.
    For vacations and Christmas any extra cash (savings from purchases, $ gifts from friends and family and bonuses) is put aside and not allowed to be touched. I thought this would help me at least get a start on a good cushion toward the expense of these events, but I have to say, “No credit cards were pulled out for anything.” It was great on black Friday when I payed for cash for all my finds. I’m already starting on this years vacation.

  265. Kerisa R.

    Kerisa R. Says:

    I have found that you should:

    1. NEVER go shopping on an empty stomach, it increases the appeal of impulse buys.

    2. ALWAYS have a list of what you need, if you don’t you’ll end up with un-needed items and without what you REALLY needed.

    3. ALWAYS check the ’single-unit’ price when sale says “10 for $10″ etc, sometimes they jack the price up for these “sales”.

    My tip is to combine your trips to the market with other errands, I schedule my shopping trips with other errands so I only have to make one trip with no doubling back over my route, I save gas on my trip and use my coupons to save at the stores.

  288. Kristi R. Says:

    Never, never leave home without your coupons/binder etc if there is even the slightest chance you may stop at a store. If you do you’ll surely find a hot deal on something and may miss out all courtesy of Murphy’s Law.

  289. Samantha Pruitt Says:

    my best money saving tip is to shop at more than one store so you can get the best prices on products! a lot of the time you’ll by something in one store full price and at the other they’ll be a good sale on it.

  309. Tim Anderson

    Tim Anderson Says:

    I try not to use coupons on impulse. I wait until the item is on sale then use my coupon. I also use two different grocery stores and buy what I need at each of whomevers is cheaper. Makes a big difference.

  312. LaurieB

    LaurieB Says:

    I really need this organizer. Then maybe my life will be less hectic LOL I’m always forgetting my coupons if I need to run to the store quick. I live less than a mile to Walmarts Neighborhood Market and I’m running there constantly because I forgot something that wasn’t on my list and I forget my coupons. I keep saying I’ll leave them in my van then that gets cluttered(doesn’t have a middle console/caddy) So I’m desperate for this organizer Laurie


  313. Jodi W

    Jodi W Says:

    I try to buy as much as I can when I have B1/G1 offers and then donate to food pantries, etc, especially if it is a product my family won’t use two of. Also, I get coupons from my mom, mother-in-law, sometimes people at work (we just bring in unwanted ones and leave in the breakroom for others), and I also buy the local paper. This gives me multiple coupons, then I stock up when products go on sale. I try to shop alone as my husband and son add about $50.00 to the cart. Best money saving tip is to remember your coupons (I tend to forget sometimes or lose my organizer!).

    I am already a newsletter member.


  314. Jessica A.

    Jessica A. Says:

    The one tip that I think a lot of people forget is simply to buy the sunday paper, cut out the coupons, and remember to bring them to the store with you. When I first began using coupons I would be too lazy to get up on Sunday to buy the papers, I would leave the coupons all over the kitchen and dining room table, or I would forget to bring the coupons with me when I went to the store.

  315. Chrysa Says:

    My best tip is to always stock up on items that go on sale for a low price. Buy as much as you can use before the expiration date of it is items like paper towels/toilet paper, buy as much as you have room to store!

    Chrysa’s last blog post..Amazon Toy Sale – 70%, 75%, & More Off!


  316. Brittany Stedtler

    Brittany Stedtler Says:

    I always compare the prices of different sizes by looking at the price per weight/unit. It helps to find the cheapest item, sometimes it’s a different brand then what’s on sale- just because it’s on sale doesn’t mean it’s the cheapest. I also bring my own reusable bags and get 5cents per bag at Stop and Shop.


  317. Anne

    Anne Says:

    I comparison shop online and in the newspaper… then take the ads and the coupons. Usually saving 75% of the cost of the item! Buying as much as I can with the savings.

    This is a great website…

    I do a lot of double coupons. Plus I support our local salvation army and goodwill centers. I have found good deals on holiday items and I save them for Christmas gifts for my daughter b/c she is always trying to take my decorations. LOL Thanks for the giveaway.


  320. Kathleen S.

    Kathleen S. Says:

    I am all about the coupons. I use them everywhere, the grocery, Macy’s, restaurants, anywhere that offers coupons. When I find products I like online, I email myself a link the to web page they are on and check back often to wait until whatever it is is on sale. Thanks for the giveaway!

  321. Elizabeth M. Says:

    My best money saving tip for grocery shopping and it works incredibly well for me is to go when I’m full. It makes a HUGE difference. Nothing has quite the appeal it would have had and I never stray from my list that way. It saves me tons.

    melissa Says:

    my money saving tip is that i help others, not just myself. when clipping coupons i pay attention to things family members & friends use & mail them a batch of coupons also. that way we are all saving money! and who doesn’t love that?


  329. Nicole

    Nicole Says:

    What I like to do is always make a list then look for coupons on the internet. It really helps me to stay organized and it keeps me from mindlessly wondering the stores!


  330. Paige

    Paige Says:

    What a great item to have! Much better than my 4×6 photo album LOL
    One of my most used money-saving tips is to buy items that can be used for other purposes. My family uses Kosher salt, but when canisters of traditional salt go on sale, I buy multiples and save them to sprinkle on icy steps and driveways! Much cheaper than rock salt and works well too. When holidays are over, I go to the Wilton baking goods and buy multiple packages of cupcake lining paper; much more ‘cent-sible’ to buy them for .25 than to pay full price and the kids get a kick out of seeing holiday prints on their muffins all year round. I also buy the nice big Wilton cookie cutters after holidays too; much more affordable than full price and they are great!


  331. julie tanga

    julie tanga Says:

    After christmas I purchase many of the bath, perfume, and other gift sets that are priced half price or more off. I try to find ones that are not holiday printed …I often use these gift sets throughout the year for other gift exchange events. Sometimes I disassemble the gift sets to remove holiday packaging and reassemble into new baskets with different ribbons, wrapping, etc. this saves a ton for me throughout the year and everyone loves their pampering gifts.


  332. Marie N

    Marie N Says:

    My son loves Rice-a-roni but the price on those little boxes just keeps increasing. So I buy long grain white rice in the bulk section of my grocery store to keep on hand. Then when Rice-a-roni is part of a major sale I buy as many as they will let me. I’ve already saved by buying bulk and buying on sale…but there’s more.

    I’ve learned there is enough in those seasoning packets that come in that little box that I can actually add a cup of long grain to the pot and essentially double the volume while cutting the cost per serving…and still have all the flavor.


  333. S. Carter

    S. Carter Says:

    Tip: each week pull out the set amount of $ you can spend on eating out, keep it in an envelope and that way you can stick to a budget.


  334. Linda G

    Linda G Says:

    I check out new coupons and buy food when it also on sale.


  335. Tammy Hollis

    Tammy Hollis Says:

    There are so many money saving tips. Clipping coupons, watching for double and triple coupons, this website(which is awesome by the way) hleps so much. Some people feel they don’t have time to do these things, but once you get in a groove it really works and it can be fun to see what you save. Since I have moved to a new area one of my biggest money saving resources has been my local paper or periodicals and chamber of commerce or town hall. You can find so many free or very inexpensive activities for your family. I love keeping the family active and have had more fun since our move utilizing our local resources!! Try it!!

    Stephanie J. Says:

    Mine is easy but it REALLY works for me. Well, THEY work for me. First is to NEVER go shopping hungry. Even at a hardware store, they always have goodies near the register. Second is to try to leave the kids home. They always cost more if they go. Great giveaway, thanks!


  338. Elizabeth Ray

    Elizabeth Ray Says:

    Too many people do not distinguish between things they want and things they need. Prioritize your needs first. After that, save for future. Then and only then buy your wants. Can’t afford to buy it now? Then save until you can. I pay all credit cards in full every month. The only thing we make payments on is the house. No, we don’t have a new car, new appliances or new furniture. We also don’t have debts.

    i pay my bills before they even come in the mail..the ones that have a constant amount that way im always ahead of the game :)


  340. Jennifer Padgett

    Jennifer Padgett Says:

    money & TIME saving tip – best product at the grocery store….the Ziploc or Glad vacuum freezer bags. we always seem to have left overs. They of course go in the fridge, then get tossed. (usually because we dont want the same food two days later; and then it goes bad.) so, now we make a bigger meal, put extra in the freezer bags and throw it in the freezer. it’s perfect 2-3 weeks later to pull out and have a nice meal. saves time to just reheat that evening, and saves money because it’s getting thrown out.

  348. t. cannon

    t. cannon Says:

    First, cut out only the coupons for things you usually buy or need. Don’t let them tempt you to get things you don’t really need or normally see as splurging. Secondly, watch the sales and use the coupons only when the item is also on sale. Thirdly, use it at a store that doubles coupons. If you do this you’re really getting the best deal. I would love this coupon organizer. I use the little cardboard ones they sell at the store, but they wear out frequently.


  349. Michelle H.

    Michelle H. Says:

    Someone already listed my favorite, which is to always look for a coupon code before placing an online order. But, I have another one. That is to save receipts when you purchase from nonfood stores because many of them have policies that if the item/s you purchased goes on sale within a certain number of days (that are set according to their own store policy)you can receive a refund of the difference in price. I reminded someone in my family about this last week and today she informed me that she just got a $22 refund on a video game because she noticed it was on sale and had the receipt.


  350. Denise

    Denise Says:

    When shopping with coupons I find stores that will double them….most stores will double to.99.

    K-Mart has been having double double coupons to $2.00. i received many items almost free in the month of November and December.

    I stock up on coupons by asking neighbors for their newspaper and then keeping extra coupons in stock.

  351. Jane S Says:

    Hi,
    I have 3 kids who love the christmas advent calendars with chocolate in them. I bought 3 for $.50 each. I freeze them and they are good until next December. I usually keep them wrapped in a few grocery bags on the bottom shelf of my extra freezer.


  352. sharon

    sharon Says:

    I match coupons to weekly sales to get the best deals for the things we need.


  353. Jackie Strawder

    Jackie Strawder Says:

    Planning ahead and packing a lunch has been my best money saving tip to all….when I don’t plan ahead and make my lunch for work I will end up spending 2-3 times as much eating out and rushing for fast food!


  354. Susanne Troop

    Susanne Troop Says:

    I tend to only buy items when they are on sale and I have a coupon too…which saves me money!


  355. Dina

    Dina Says:

    My best advice:I make a list of everything I need. I then try to find coupons for all the things that are on my list. I only stockpile when I know for sure I am able to use the items. I also love to donate food and other household items when I find outstanding sales.


  356. Emily Sweeten

    Emily Sweeten Says:

    My best money saving tip is to just buy the store brands. They’re usually just as good if not better than the pricier name brands. We buy the store brand formula for my 1-year old daughter and save upto $12.00 every time we buy it, the same with diapers.


  357. Les

    Les Says:
