    I like being about to look at the ads through your eyes as well, you never know when you have overlooked something until it’s pointed out. Thank you for that!

  3. Kacy Marxen says

    I love the grocery ad match ups best. Makes shoping much easier. Thank you for all you do.

  4. Michelle says

    The feature I love the most….hmmm…not sure if there’s just one, but I love the fact that you list the grocery sales and coupon matchups. Makes it much easier to find the best deals! Thanks for all your hard work!

  7. Shannon Smith says

    I love the freebies most! I am pregnant and due in October, and also engaged with a four year old daughter. We just had a huge house fire and lost everything. Recently moved back in to our home, however my fiancee got work hours cut back and now we are barely able to afford groceries, along with moving back in our renovated home. The freebies you provide help out a lot for me even if they are just samples. An Aldi’s gift card would be an amazing help to us! I love shopping at Aldi’s and the fact that they use coupons as well! 🙂

  10. Bruce Gibson says

    The price matches are perfect to shop by. I save so much money. Thanks for your daily posts.

    I like how you shared the tips from Dave Ramsey. It prompted me to check out the books from the library and go through the program. In the past 8 mos. we’ve been able to pay off most of our debt (all but our car and house), and put $3,000 additional dollars in our savings account. Today a part went out in my husband’s car and we were able to just drop it off at the shop and know we can pick it up tomorrow and write a check and not feel financial unstable. That is a huge relief for me.

  268. Laura says

    So many things I love about your site! Mostly how easy you make it to save and find great deals. Thank you!!!!!

    Love the daily emails! The only reason I get to work part-time and stay at home with my kids for most of my day is by searching out the best deals on every item we buy, and Penny Pinchin’ Mom helps me do that. I look forward to reading the email each day on my phone while I’m rocking my baby girl to sleep at night!

  285. Heather Harper says

    I love the fact that on a Monday when I am out of fruit I know exactly where to go to see if anyone has the items I need on sale. No need to go through tons of old posts…just go to the store and see what is on sale before I visit. Hate getting to a store to realize something is on sale AND I have the coupon at home.

    I love the Walgreen’s feature. Keeps me updated on what is on sale. Wish we had a CVS here but “oh, well”. Keep up the good work Tracy

    If I had to list just ONE thing because really, everything is great, it would be getting the email from your site every evening, listing all the deals and goodies that I might not have known about.

    Love the coupon matchups!!!!! I don’t have time to compare sales with coupons, but love that you do 🙂
