Thanks for linking me. I hope any readers who stop by will check out recipes also. My husband is one fabulous cook (and I'm an excellent eater).
You are welcome O&G, your site is well worth checking out.

This was covered in the comments on the original article, but I read my grocery store's sale circulars online and find the rewards cards are more than worth using. For example, I buy soda only when it's on sale, and those sale prices always require using that store's loyalty card. That's fine by me since that's a stupid second order food my husband will never give up.
Plus since I use practically no other second order foods, the coupon fliers in newspapers are worthless to me.
Bottom line--consumers need to pay attention and not be sheep. Baaah.
