Walmart Savings Catcher

-


If you're already shopping at Walmart, the phone app is a must have. While shopping in stores, it saves quite a bit of time usually spent searching. The app will tell you the aisle your item is located in or if it is out of  stock. This definitely helps me if I'm looking for something new (like puff pastry for our cranberry brie bites, who knew it wasn't with the pie crusts?).


It also has this great feature called "Savings Catcher". You do need to sign up for an account to use this feature. It compares prices of all items you purchased with other stores in the area. If there is a cheaper price elsewhere, you get money back in the form of a prepaid card or for use on walmart pay.

Here's how to use it. Download the walmart app and save your receipt.


 Tap the savings catcher icon and then hit the orange "Add a Walmart Receipt" button. Scan the bottom of your receipt.

You can then see a digital version of your receipt. Plus once the app compares prices to local stores, you might get money back. Then your receipt history will show how much money you got back on each item. 

The reward dollars section tells you how much you've earned overall and how much you've earned since your last redemption. To redeem, either set up walmart pay (pay from your phone for use online and in stores) or redeem through Bluebird for a prepaid American Express card. 



Pretty simple right? Now there is no excuse no to be getting money back on your purchases at Walmart (don't even need to scan each item like in other apps). Combine this with rebate apps like ibotta, mobisave, or checkout51 to maximize your savings.

Spring has sprung and Easter is around the corner! Such a fun time, filled with bright colors, candy, family, and more. It can also be a scary food time -- candy filled with corn syrup and other artificial ingredients, eggs dyed with petroleum products, and thousands of empty calories to name a few issues. I can't stop you from overindulging on your ham dinner, but I can help out reducing some of the artificial ingredients you're putting at your table this year. Colored Easter eggs have long been a staple at Easter time, whether you hide them for a Easter Egg hunt or put them out as decoration. Coloring Easter eggs is also just plain fun! That is until you start looking at what is in that dye you are using. Yellow 5, Red 40, blue 2.... Does that sound like something your body can digest well? If you dig a bit deeper you find that these colors are actually petroleum based and are known carcinogens. Yet we use these on food we are feeding our families. This year you can ...
