Five Great Deals to Save You Money

It’s no secret that money and time are tight these days, which is why Frugal Family is dedicated to finding you five great local deals each week.  From day-to-day needs to home services to special occasions, we’ve got you covered.

This week, Frugal Family sought out deals on Easter candy, hospitality services, photography, mulch and carpet cleaning.

If any of these specials catch your eye, feel free to share this column with your family and friends.  If you uncover another great deal, tell us about it in the comments below.

Frugal Tip: Make use of double coupon days.  Usually there is a limit on how many can be doubled, such as five on Wednesdays at Pick 'N Save.  To get the most out of this, hand over your five highest value coupons first! Most registers double the first ones scanned.  You can also split your trip into multiple orders to double more of your coupons.  Although, it’s polite to do that during nonpeak shopping hours.
