You've probably seen offers that look something like this: 20% off $25 in merchandise OR 30% off $40, OR 40% off $60. The industry term for this is a "tiered offer" since you have different tiers you can climb to get to each next savings level.

Generally speaking it is very worthwhile to try to get to the top tier of these promotions, because your savings rate effectively multiplies on the extra items you add to your bag to hit the tier. For example, the extra $20 in items to get to the highest tier only ends up costing you $8 more -- that's like getting 60% off the extra items!

Now it's generally not a good idea to buy something just because you have a coupon or other type of discount. But it helps to do the math so you at least know what the real cost will be for the extra items. In cases like this the extra 60% savings might be too good to pass up. It can be a good opportunity to add an item to your basket that you were going to buy at some point anyway, or one that you know you might have to return.

Typically if you return an item in an offer like this, you won't fall back into the lower tier.  So if you bought $60 in items and got the 40% off, then decide to return half of the order, you still end up with 40% off the items you hold on to.  Check with your store as to whether this violates their policy but traditionally this has been an allowable practice.

So how much can you save by maximizing the tiered offers?

Suppose you shop three times in Tier 1 (20% off), each time with $75 in your basket. You'll end up paying $60 for those items over the three trips. If you instead buy all $75 at once making you eligible for Tier 3 (40% off) you'll pay just $45 for the same items. That's a 25% extra savings! If you spend $300 annually for you and your family with offers like this, that extra savings adds up to $75 per year!

Unit price is an important way of comparing the effective cost of different package sizes. Generally speaking, the lower the unit price, the better the deal, and larger packages usually offer a better unit price. Savvy shoppers know that the main exception to this rule is when certain package sizes go on sale. Very often in those cases it will be a better deal to buy the sale item, even if a larger package is avaiable.

However, the rules get turned around when coupons come into play. Very often the smallest packages, which had the worst unit price to start with, end up with the BEST unit price after deducting a coupon. If you have multiple coupons, or don't need to buy as much of the item at one time, you'll save more in the long run this way.

Unfortunately while stores generally provide the unit price right on the shelf tag, they don't give you this information for factoring in coupons, so you have to do it yourself. Don't worry, it's easy to do with a calculator (your phone might even have one) or a piece of paper, or even in your head!

From a LOZO user:
"I took off the old sponge from the mop and I replaced it with new sponges (the kind that has the wirey type on one side and the sponge on the other (2 of them or however many you need to go across the metal part) Then I attached  velcro small circles all over the metal part of the mop and then on top I put the wirey part of the sponge on them.  And there you have a new mop with little expense."

Ordering groceries online can be a great convenience, and can also means savings for savvy shoppers.  Take advantage of being in the comfort of your home to carefully analyze prices and look to stock up on the best deals.  Most stores will also offer a range of specials you can only get when ordering online, potentially yielding greater savings than the cost of delivery (especially when you factor in the savings on gas!).

Don't worry about missing out on using your valuable grocery coupons as most stores will still accept them for delivery (the only difference is that you might have a slight processing delay before you get the money credited back).

If you are new to online shopping take advantage of first time buyer deals like these:

• $10 off your first order from Peapod
• Free delivery on your first order from Safeway
• Free delivery on your first order from Vons
• Free delivery on your first order from Genuardi's

And don't forget to check Amazon.com which has a wide selection of groceries and many special coupon offers every month.  Read this article from LOZO to learn how to triple up on savings when you shop there.
