Pinching Your Pennies Review

About the Blog:

Pinching Your Pennies has freebies, couponing tips, online coupons and codes, and a great list of grocery deals. What is a unique addition to this site are their blog posts on tips for savings, and other random things such as weight watchers salsa recipe, and also their Screaming Penny link. This is a neat link to amazing online deals. I found half off toys, shoes, clothes, and more.

Tips for Using the Blog:

My biggest tip is to skim over their “screaming penny” every day. You can find deals for 50% off, Bogo’s, and great online coupons for your favorite online stores. They also list “screaming deals” in your local area. They list deals on their Facebook page for the western states such as Arizona, Idaho, Wyoming, Oregon, Nevada, California, Washington, Utah, and Colorado. They also have a Facebook page for national and online deals. On these Facebook pages, you can post additional findings of sales or cheap activities in your area.

REMEMBER: The “screaming penny” is a list of online deals, not local deals. Their local deals list is on their Facebook pages. You can find links to the specific Facebook pages at the bottom of their “screaming penny” list. So, if you don’t live on the west coast, still check out their “screaming penny” for great online deals and savings.

Pros about the Site:

Pinchingyourpennies.com has a great list of deals and their blog is really fun to read. Their blog lists many helpful tips for saving money, recipe ideas, canning and food storage, and crafts. They also have a forum where you can add to the list of savings, ask questions, and find great deals in your area.

Cons about the Site:

There are two different kinds of coupon databases, one coupon database has a search engine where you can look up the coupons you want, and the other is a long list of all coupons available, usually coupons from coupon inserts. I am not a fan of the coupon databases that are long lists of coupons, and this is the kind of coupon database that Pinching Your Pennies has on their site. I am sure some find them useful; I just prefer looking up a specific coupon.

Was the Blog Helpful?

It is always helpful to find shoes, electronics, toys, clothes, dishware, and other household items for half price. www.pinchingyourpennies.com also has very helpful Facebook pages that are customized to your local area if you live on the west coast. They also list nationwide deals which is helpful as well. I will be checking out their screaming penny every day because I know there will be a great deal.

Will I add it to My List?

This is one of my favorite sites for their screaming penny deals and Facebook pages. I have found some really fun activities for the whole family for free or super cheap. I will continue to check out this site regularly and will recommend it to my friends.
