In the challenging economic times of today, some Americans are watching every penny. Family nights out at a restaurant and trips to the movies have, for most, been replaced by renting a DVD and making homemade pizzas.

If there is one silver lining in the recent economic cloud that plagues us, it is just that Americans are understanding that quality time with loved ones is far more crucial than the multiple distractions on which we have previously spent our disposable income. However, particularly if you have kids one must not avoid eating out forever, and trips to the grocery store must be just as expensive. Whether you are eating out or grocery shopping for your meals, the price of food must take a big chunk out of your paycheck. Using food promos is a superb help, and you do not demand much more than an Internet connection. There are a giant number of blogs out there to keep you updated on the latest freebies, savings, and sales.

Create an email address just for promos and offers; often restaurants will offer one costless dinners and desserts just for signing up for their mailing list, and on your birthday. Grocery shops are a giant way to save, particularly if you sign up for a savings card. Buy the things the family uses in bulk when they are on sale, so one does not have to spend the extra cash when they are not. Internet savings, as well as the ones you find in the mailbox or newspaper, will save you hundreds of dollars a year. Rewards programs like the ones at CVS also add up, and are worth the effort. Food coupons are a superb way to help one spend less, so one can stretch the dollar a little bit and save your money for more crucial things, like a vacation!
