Survey Results From Last Week

Last week, we had 3 surveys to help us with planning and posting on the site.  I do all of this to help other people save money so if I am not posting what you are looking for, I am not doing my job.  There are a few things that I wanted to make note of based on your responses:

.

#1- What stores would you like to see added?

Your Requests:

Ralphs, would love to have it updated again.
Meijer
CVS
Smart & Final
Food 4 Less is probably the only one missing.
Walmart
Savemart SoCal
Savemart
giant, safeway

My Responses:

Ralphs is already listed in the deals widget:)

Meijer I just added for you all last night courtesy of Happy Homemaker Cindy!

CVS is already listed in the deals widget:)

Walmart I just added for you last night courtesy of Passion For Savings!

Savemart I post deals for when there are good ones of note.

Giant is a subsidiary of Stop And Shop which I just added to the deals widget courtesy of FrugalLivingAndHavingFun!

Smart & Final did not used to take manufacturer coupons.  Although they now do, their sizes on many things are so large, it makes it very hard to get deals.  The best deals can be found on their meat and produce.

Food 4 Less does not put out ads making it incredibly difficult to post deals.  I do not have one on my side of town which makes it even harder to get to to find prices etc:(

Safeway is the parent store that includes Vons which I post each week.  The deals should be the same with some differences is specific meat and produce deals depending on where you live.

I also added:

Kmart for you, since I have had requests for that in the past, courtesy of Bargain Brianna!

If you are not familiar with how we do store deals around here:

Each week we post the lists of deals at Vons and Albertsons here in SoCal.  All other store deals can be found in the brown block in the right sidebar that says “Find Deals By Store” as pictured below.  When you click on the name of the store, you will be taken to all of the posts on deals for that store with the newest on top.  Scroll down to see all current deals.  Many of these are from other great bloggers that I partner with to bring you deals at the stores in your area.  Writing up lists takes a tremendous amount of time and effort and I just can not do them all on my own:)

#2- Posts you love!

The top 5 results were:

Store Deals

New Coupons

Free Samples

Online Shopping Deals & Codes

Rebates

My Response:

I will be beefing up my posts in some of these areas to meet your demand.  Please remember that while you may not be particularly interested in a specific deal or post, it may be just what someone else was looking for.  I have implemented the ~Click To Read More~ function on longer posts to keep them from overtaking the home page but still allowing readers who are interested to get the fill list of deals.  This post I left long to make sure that everyone got all the info.

 

#3- Seminar Days & Times

The overwhelming favorite was either a weekday night or Saturday morning with other times on Saturday following those.  We will be taking this into consideration in planning our open to the public seminars for the fall and winter. 

 

Thanks to all of you who took the time to fill out the surveys!  It was great to hear from you all and always important to me that I am spending my time on things that are valuable to you.  You as my readers are why I do this and I am so thankful to all of you for making this site what it is!

Thursday’s Scrumptious Bites 9/2

I am so excited about our new Scrumptious Bites!  I am sure you have seen about my trip to Baking With Betty, maybe a little too much, but I loved it!  One of the best things for me was meeting some amazing food bloggers from all over the country.  I am going to use our Thursday’s Scrumptious Bites posts to introduce you to some of them.  This week our post is from Deborah at Taste and Tell.  I think you will love the simplicity and shear yumminess of her recipes!

 

“I’m a simple girl at heart. Most of my closet is made up of solids – not very many trendy prints for me. My dishes are plain white. I love white cake with chocolate frosting. So needless to say, when it comes to cooking, I usually keep things pretty real.

Now don’t get me wrong – I love to experiment and try new things in the kitchen. But the majority of the time, I’m drawn to simple meals.

Being a food blogger, you can get caught up in the latest kitchen trends and flavors, but I know that most people are like me and want something that can be made quickly, with few ingredients. Pantry staples are always a plus! So when I came across this recipe while browsing online, I knew it was one that my family would love.

I have to admit – I almost didn’t even take a picture of it, because I thought to myself – this is a recipe that is just too simple. One of those “duh” recipes. I wondered if people would even want me to share this recipe with them. But then I took a bite, and I decided that simple recipes like this are definitely the best recipes. The thing I love the most about this recipe? The fact that it is so versatile. Don’t have rigatoni? Use a different pasta! Want to add some extra veggies? Throw them into the sauce! But take my word when I say to cube the mozzarella in the sauce – it was such a pleasant surprise to find these little pockets of cheesy goodness all through my pasta.

Delicious doesn’t have to be complicated!”

Rigatoni with Cheesy-Tomato Sausage Sauce

Adapted from BettyCrocker.com

Serves 4

Total time: 25 minutes

8 oz. rigatoni or other tube-shaped pasta

½ pound Italian sausage

1 24-ounce jar prepared pasta sauce

¼ cup shredded basil

2 ounces mozzarella, cubed (1/2 cup)

1 ounce (1/4 cup) shredded fresh Parmesan cheese

.

Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain.

Meanwhile, brown the sausage in a large saucepan. Drain. Add the pasta sauce and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low. Add the basil and mozzarella and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until the cheese is slightly melted.

.

To serve, spoon the sauce over the pasta. Top with Parmesan cheese.

“My name is Deborah, and I’ve been writing Taste and Tell since March of 2007. I grew up in a family that loves food and that love has been passed down to me. I love to try new recipes, and it’s rare for me to make something more than once!  I am the mother of a 19-month old girl, and I know that life can be hectic – especially when it comes to dinnertime. Most of my dinner recipes featured on Taste and Tell can be made in less than an hour, so they are realistic for everyday families. I love to spend time in the kitchen, but fast, easy and delicious are what I’m usually looking for!”
