As I head into my sixth year of blogging, I’m making a few changes to my content. One of the biggest will be that I will no longer list the weekly deals and coupon matchups for Safeway. I’ve been trying for over a year to find another blogger to take over Mid-Atlantic Safeway matchups, with no luck. If you are currently sharing Safeway deals on your blog, please let me know–I would love to promote you! I will send my readers your way for their Wednesday fix.

Readers, my goal is to teach you how to fish instead of just giving you fish every week! So this month, I’ll share how to do your own coupon matchups. That will serve you better in the long run, and it will apply to everyone, not just those who shop at Safeway. I still have an ongoing relationship with Safeway and anticipate giveaways in the future (like the holiday gift card promotion I had at the end of the year).

If you’re looking to save money on your grocery shopping, there are plenty of resources here at MoneywiseMoms to help you:

• 31 Days of Grocery Savings is a series of short videos where I show you how to read a store ad, prep a grocery list, use and stack coupons, and more.
• No matter whose blog you’re reading, How to Read Coupon Matchups will help decipher the language they use.
• My Coupon Links page contains all the internet-printable coupons you need.
