Sorry, I just posted a response about The Grocery Game before I realized there were already responses about that. But I can't figure out how to delete, only edit. Oops!
I recieved this ad in the mail the other day and it is a program where you pay 19.95 a month, but they tell you where to go to get the best deals with your coupons. The one thing that stood out was that if you refer other people you get paid and continue to get money if they stay on the service.
So has anyone tried a service similar to this? What were your expierences?

I haven't tried the paid service but I HIGHLY recommend the pocket your dollars site - lots of links to deals and grcery deals with links to coupons for free. I have scored some great deals on dining and groceries from the site!
I tried the grocerygame.com for the trial period but I did not continue on. I do however recommend a Minnesota lady who puts together FREE shopping lists with coupon recomendations along with it. It is pocketyourdollars.com. Check out this FREE site!
I did "The Grocery Game" for awhile. It was pretty cool the way they laid out all the deals for the week. It was categorized by store and then further by what the best deals were. In addition to that you could download coupons that you can't find any where else. I did the trial membership for a month but cancelled after that was over. For me the service was a luxury and we couldn't afford to pay the membership price, even if it did save us money over time. I can pretty much do the same thing by watching the weekly mailers, but I do miss the coupons! Hope this helps!

This is a total rip-off. Try these websites instead. They send out free daily emails and they are awesome about pairing up all the coupons out there and telling you where to use them.

I LOVE www.thegrocerygame.com! I have saved SO much money that I am constantly telling people about it. I found it easy to use after I'd used it for a week or so and made an instruction sheet for friends to use.
With The Grocery Game, you decide how many stores you will shop at and pay accordingly. The trial membership is only $1 and then after 8 weeks, you will be charged by how many stores you choose. $10 for one, $15 for two, $20 for three. I only do two and pay $15 every 8 weeks.
You will more than make up for this small amount in the money you save. I used to spend between $100 - $125 a week at Walmart buying what I needed and now spend the same at Cub and Rainbow and come home with two times as much food and household supplies. I only spend about $.25 for a tube of toothpaste and $.75 for deodorant.
Let me know if you want my instruction sheet; it makes it just a bit easier.
