Greetings Thrifty Friends,

The next time you hand over some money and a cashier hands
you a receipt, be sure to hold on to it! Just because you've
got the goods doesn't mean your opportunity to save is over.
In fact, the receipt could be your key to future savings.

Keep pinchin' those pennies,
Penny

TODAY'S THRIFTY TIP:

* Save those receipts for your return to the store! Many
businesses offer promotion to customers who simply bring
back a receipt from a previous purchase. Starbucks, for
example, regularly runs a Treat Receipt offer: go in the
afternoon with a receipt from earlier in the day and
you'll get an automatic discount. Other retailers offer
a percentage off for customers who've held onto receipts.


* You're already used to getting coupons in addition to
your grocery store receipt, but now many retailer are
putting those savings on the receipt. And the discount
are often for goods and services at other local businesses.


* As many as 30 percent of receipts contain some sort of
error, and from markdowns that haven't been registered to
totally incorrect charges those mistakes can cost you big.
So take a second to review your receipt!
