I was recently figured out how to overcome grocery shopping burnout.

Now if you are a regular reader of This Side of Eternity, you understand that I have a passion for saving money.  I am always looking for new ways to cut the amount of money I spend each week.

In fact this sometimes involves shopping at multiple stores in order to get the most for my money.

I find that after several weeks of cutting out coupons, looking through all the local ads, making my detailed list, and then driving to several stores in one day I can get burnt out.

Usually this happens every 6-8 weeks for me.  I find that I just cannot do one more week of this routine even though I know it saves me so much time and money in the long run.  So I just don’t do any of it for a week (sometimes two).

It’s good to take some time off every now and then, as long as you do return to the money saving routine.  I have found that taking a week off works for me and keeps me from giving it up altogether.

Now, that I have met Alice, I don’t feel so bad if I just can’t get to the store this week.

So, let me introduce you to Alice.

Alice is an online store that offers products at a fraction of the cost.  There are even clipless coupons that are automatically subtracted so you can be sure you are getting the best price and you’ll always receive free shipping when you order at least 6 items.  However, on your first order you’re allowed free shipping no matter how much you order!

Not everything is cheaper than going to an actual store, but when you factor in time and gas I find that it certainly does balance out. 

Also, you’ll be given a $10 credit to shop with when you sign up through this special link!

Here are some of the best deals I found today:

Schick Lightweight Razors for Sensitive Skin (5-ct package)–$0.29 after clip-free coupon
Bic Razors (12-count package)–$0.97 after clip-free coupon
Bic Shavers for Men (10-ct package)–$1.07 after clip-free coupon
Kotex Pantiliners (5 different kinds)–$0.41 per package after clip-free coupon
Suave Shampoo and Conditioner–$0.60 after clip-free coupon

Thanks Crystal!
