Introducing MyGroceryDeals.com

With so many different websites to choose from when actively couponing, it's hard to choose the one to go with. Several months ago, the owner of mygrocerydeals.com emailed me and asked me to check out the site. I'm a firm believer of giving something a 100% trial before deciding how I feel about it, so I waited to post my opinion on mygrocerydeals.com.

In his email to me, Ed wrote:

"mygrocerydeals.com is now live nationwide and is a free service that allows consumers to go online, do their grocery pre shopping based on advertised grocery flyer specials, look at nutritional information, create their shopping list and then head out to their selected store(s) with list in hand. We have recently mapped 50,900 zip codes into our database and then lined up the grocery markets and local stores along 4,400 county lines to make a match. So members really do see the deals in stores in their neighborhood only. "

Mygrocerydeals.com is now available at this point, in over 400 cities and is continuing to grow. I was a bit hesitant because when other grocery related websites came out, it took a long time for them to hit my area. Nope, not the case here. I entered my zip code and immediately it popped up with all of our local grocery stores!

The site is free and it allows members to search through local grocery weekly ads to find deals and sales. Then you can customize your very own price optimized shopping list. It is really pretty handy as it shows the original price, with what the sale price is, and is very easy when working with coupons to see what you have and what you will save. It does the work for you. After you've made your shopping list, which can be categorized by store, etc. you can save your list and print it or send it via email, which is another really handy feature.

Another feature I found quite interesting and probably quite handy for some, is that there is an allergy alert system. If someone you shop for in your household has a food allergy of some type, it can be entered in your profile and if anything you have checked to purchase contains that item, it will be flagged.

To be Continued....
