The Sewing Mom

My daughter has been out of school all this week and I feel like I’ve been running her around town, shopping for last minute gifts, working and trying to get the house ready for Christmas and not having too much time for myself. That may sound a bit greedy, but I really do need some downtime and so, I’ve decided that I’m going to take today and tomorrow off from pretty much everything!

This time of year is really all about family and friends, and yet, it can get so hectic that we can forget to step back and simply enjoy the holiday. I did quite a bit of my holiday shopping online which saves wear and tear on me, but did you know you can also shop online for things besides gifts? I’m thankful for Alice.com, a free website that allows me to keep up with my everyday household shopping, even at the most hectic time of year!

I can purchase all my regular grocery items like laundry detergent, bathroom supplies, cleaning supplies, and paper goods without ever having to leave my house. In fact, Alice.com allows me to set up my account for free and send myself reminders of when I might be running out of items like toilet paper. The site is so easy to use and includes automatic coupons so I don’t have to spend time clipping from the newspaper, yet another time saver! Their shipping is free as long as you order the minimum number of items and their prices are competitive with any grocery or big box store.

Alice.com also has a Refer a Friend program (located under the “My Account” section on Alice.com). This is an affiliate program where users can give their readers $10 off once $50 is spent on the site, and then they get 3% back of the purchases for a year.

Alice.com has saved me time, money and allowed me to stay within my monthly budget, not to mention, it’s allowing me today to take time off rather than go out into the heavy traffic and deal with all those frantic people at the grocery store the day before Christmas!  If you’re looking for a great, easy way to save on your household budget and save time, you should definitely check out Alice.com.

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday!

My work hours were cut today so I made good use of my time off and headed out to run a few errands. I don’t know about you, but I hate running errands and I detest grocery shopping. I feel like it’s such a waste of time and it takes me so long because I am a price shopper. I stand in the aisle comparing ingredients, sizes, coupons and, most importantly, prices. In these times of household budget cuts, price comparison are so important to me.

In the end, I did get my shopping done this morning, even managed to pick up a couple of Christmas presents. After getting home and putting my purchases away, I sat down for some personal time on my computer and I discovered Alice.com, a super convenient way to get my weekly and monthly household shopping done while saving me money.

I signed up for a free account at Alice.com today and started putting items I normally purchase at the store into my online cart. The coolest thing is that I don’t have to print/clip coupons because Alice.com has that all taken care of and applies coupons to my purchase for me. AND, they ship my order to me free (as long as I order a minimum of 6 items). They will even keep track of what I purchase and remind me to reorder so I don’t run out of things in my pantry, whether it’s coffee or toilet paper. Plus, their prices are better than what I just found at the discount store today. I compared prices at Alice.com to my receipt for what I purchased today and I could have saved even more than I did by purchasing online because they would have given me coupons that I didn’t have with me today.

I have such a difficult time staying on a budget and this is a great way for me to be more successful because I can track my purchases.  This is the perfect way for us to manage our household purchases because they carry everything I need outside of fresh food.  I can save money purchasing everything from granola bars, to shower cleaner and they carry name brand products, the ones I usually buy.  I even found a few items that I ordered today because I didn’t care for the prices at the store, even though I needed the products.  Now I’ve ordered them from Alice.com, saved money, time and gasoline.

I highly suggest you check this site out for yourself. Click here to sign up and start saving and you’ll receive $10 off once you’ve spent $50. Plus, for anyone you refer, you’ll receive 3% of their purchases back for one year.
