The Dollar Stretcher blog will explore people and money.
If you're a regular reader you know that we've always been big supporters of grocery pricebooks. As an ex-purchasing manager, I feel that a pricebook gives the average grocery shopper the same tools that a professional purchasing agent has. And, based on what we hear many people save 15% or so on their grocery bills without changing what they buy.
Back a few years ago we even offered a pricebook for sale. But we found that buying and assembling the parts plus the cost of shipping made them expensive for what they are - a simple tool to save on groceries. But, one thing stood out. It was easier for people if they had the pages designed for them. So we set out to create a pdf that would provide people with the pages that you use to create a pricebook. All you need to do is to find an old ring binder or even staple the pages together. The pages are free to download. You'll find them here. Please let your friends and neighbors know about them. You'll make lots of friends if you can help them shave 15% off of their food bills!
Keep on Stretching those Dollars!

About Gary
For more than 25 years, Gary Foreman has worked to manage money effectively. Prior to starting The Dollar Stretcher, he was a financial planner and purchasing manager.
While helping clients manage their hard earned money as a financial planner, he applied commonsense, time-tested techniques during the turbulent 1980’s. The experience convinced him that you didn’t need to hit the lottery to accumulate significant wealth.
Following that, Gary had an opportunity to learn more about how to get the best value for a dollar spent in the corporate world. As the Purchasing Manager for a computer manufacturer, he was responsible for supervising over $10 million in annual purchases.
Gary began The Dollar Stretcher website <www.TheDollarStretcher.com> and newsletters in April 1996. Over 300,000 readers benefit from the time and money saving ideas presented in The Dollar Stretcher newsletters each week. His mission is to help people "Live Better for Less".
He also provides private label newsletters for companies wishing to provide money saving information for their clients and/or prospects.
Gary lives in Florida along with his wife of thirty years and their two children. Much of his time is spent working with the men's ministry of his church. One of their ongoing projects is the "Holy Smoke BBQ" which sells bbq on Friday nights with the profits going to support local foster kids and orphans.
When he has a free moment you’ll find him restoring a Checker station wagon nicknamed “Two Ton” or cruising in a '65 Impala SS Convertible with doo-wops playing in the background.
