Yesterday I went shopping. Unfortunately, this time we didn't need much, so the opportunities to find savings weren't very many. We don't buy stuff just because it's a deal. Doing that just leads to waste if it happens to be something we don't use often. I did manage to save about $10.15 on some cheese croissants and pizza-type buns, though, so it wasn't a total disappointment. I got some half-price goodies to nibble on while I work on Skool😁 That brings me to my point: not every shopping trip is going to be a massive saver. They don't have to be. Sometimes $5 here and $10 there can be just as successful. Every dollar counts, and they add up. It's something to remember the next time you go shopping, and it seems like the savings aren't there. Sometimes it happens. Don't get discouraged and try not to "deal buy" just because it's a good price. If you don't think you'll use it soon and it might go to waste... leave it on the shelf, rack, or hook unless it's free...

Seeing as a few members have expressed a desire to be able to use what's in their pantry better, I am debating on having a Skool call-type live event on a weekly basis. In this live call, members would be able to submit a list of ingredients they have in their pantries and get ideas for dishes to make with said ingredients... Rather than brainstorming, It would be a mealstorming session... Would this be something you'd like to participate in? Drop any suggestions or questions in the comments!

Affiliate links are now live! This means that members can now click their profile picture, click affiliates, select Pennywise Pantry, and get their affiliate link for promoting the community. With that announcement, The Pennywise Pantry Affiliate Guide Version 1 is Live and the section on Promoting via Online platforms is complete. The section covering Offline Promotion will be completed in the next day or two. Tomorrow at 10 am Mountain time, we are also having our Member coffee hour. Would love to see you there! Feel free to bring a friend! Stay tuned as we get the rest of the goodies in place.

AWSOME LOGO!

Today I am going to be announcing some improvements to the community. I just have to knock off a few to do list entries before I get started. Coming later today and into the week end, in no specific order... - A new Welcome video and Community walk through. - New offerings in the Classroom. - A new promo guide for the Community - Affiliate links. - New 1x purchases such as a Pantry consults, and Shopping process assessments... I'll be getting this stuff in place then returning to normal content and interaction schedules. This how doesn't mean you can't still pose questions or shoppings wins in the mean time. I'll still be available to comment and offer any input I have on those. See you soon with some new goodies!
