I came across this site, I'm not sure if it covers all of your areas but it's really handy where it does! It lists the items on sale from all the main stores in your area, and then matches them with manufacturer coupons for some killer savings! Check it out! Coupons I've been looking for something like this forever!

I also now promote the Microfiber Towels as replacements for Swiffer cloths (especially the dishcloth size). I have two dogs who shed like crazy, so instead of continually buying new Swiffers, I just throw the towels in the laundry. They also can save money on paper towel use as well![/QUOTE]

I too love the Microfiber cloth! I use it to clean my hardwood floors with soap and water, so no more buying hardwood floor cleaner. I use them to dust-they dust amazingly and I use a lot less Pledge. I use them to clean windows and glass surfaces with soap and water-haven't bought Windex in so long! I have black appliances, and our towel takes fingerprints and smudges off beautifully! I keep one in my car so I can wipe down dashboards while waiting in line at stop lights, train tracks or at the bank, etc. It's also great in the car because if I take my dog she sheds, so I have the towel in there to clean it all. It wipes up dog hair from surfaces like a magnet!
