Hi, Louise. I’m glad you like it. And yes, the automatic grocery list rocks. The “what’s for dinner game” is definitely a thing of the past in our household. (Now whether the picky kids will eat what we make is another story.)

Hi! I just signed up for e-mealz! Great idea! I realized that I really needed something. I’ve got plenty of recipe books but for some reason am never organized enough to actually plan for a week and am often playing the “what’s for dinner game”. I want to give my family healthy meals – and lets face it – who wants cereal for dinner every night of the week! Ok, maybe not that often……
Anyway I took the plunge. I was impressed with the site and the low price. Thanks for sharing. I’m looking forward to using it.
I also had to tell you that I love the fact that there is a grocery list.

I’ve been “playing” The Grocery Game for about 6 months now and have consistently cut my family’s grocery bill by 50% or more. You can find this website at http://www.thegrocerygame.com. A trial for 4 weeks is only $1 and then the monthly subscription is about $5 depending on how many grocery stores you subscribe to. What the website does is maintain a weekly database which matches up coupons released in your local Sunday paper with local grocery stores sales. It makes it easy for you to get products at half cost or less. I’ve gotten many items for free. There is some time that one must invest to learn the system, but it is simple and SO gratifying when you go to the grocery store and the cash registers start having issues because you are saving so much money. I have a family of 5 and need to find ways to cut corners every way that I can and this system has us spending about $125 on groceries a week (this includes all household items, paper goods, etc.) vs. what we were spending at Costco which was at least $250/week. If anyone is interested in trying it out please email me if you need help and if you go to the website, please put in my email address as your referral: jsamsom@me.com. Good luck and try it, it really does work!
