Walmart Savings Catcher - For lazy budget shoppers

Walmart is the devil. But it is a necessary evil for those on a tight budget because it has the cheapest average prices around. So if you want to cut costs without spending two hours a week comparing circulars and clipping coupons Walmart will give you the best deal. But if that isn't cutting enough of your cost I have found the next best thing.

I discovered Walmart Saving's Catcher (here) last week. It is basically retroactive comparison shopping. Forget your coupon? No problem! All you do is create a Walmart account and save your store receipts. Login in to the site with receipt in hand and enter the code and date of purchase from the receipt. The website does the rest. Soon you will get points and those points can be turned into cash in the form of a Walmart gift card.

Walmart does honor prices of competitors and will match prices if you bring the circulars and show the cashier at check-out. I saved $10 on my last trip. But that turned into $2 more savings from the Savings Catcher website. Walmart allows 7 receipt submissions per week. I have submitted 5 so far and have gotten some cash back on each one (the most being $3.10 and the least being $0.89).

Shop and save with Walmart!
