Time To Flip For The FLIPP App! ~ $100 Gift Card Giveaway

in Lifestyle on 11/16/15

The Flipp app?  Have you heard of it?  Thanks to Flipp you can say goodbye to your paper circulars and have everything you need in the palm of your hand, right in your smart phone!  The Flipp delivers digital circulars from over 800 local retailers so you can find the best deals in your own community every week.  The entire app and coupon world is new to me, but not to my newest contributor here at How To Survive Life In The Suburbs, SassySis.  Allow me to introduce you to my Guest Writer, Heather, the original SassySister!  An expert in all things baby, toddler, shopping and savings.  Here is her expert opinion on the newest addition to the Flipp app as she tackles the #FLIPPCOUPONCHALLENGE.

My introduction (OK obsession) into the world of price matching all began with the dreaded diaper. There is nothing I dislike more than spending money on something to catch pee! Once I realized how easy it was to save money on diapers I realized that I could do this with all kinds of items and save a ton of cash (more mani’s and pedi’s for me ☺) I mean a penny saved is a penny earned right? Every Thursday night I would sit down with my grocery list for the week and start combing through the flyers. An hour or more later I would be ready to hit the grocery store. Once at the checkout with flyers in hand I would just ignore the folks behind me as I very calmly (OK maybe a little flustered) matched my flyers to the items in my cart. I’d walk away knowing that although the dirty look from the guy behind me may haunt my dreams tonight, I had saved some of my hard earned money.

I was at a dinner party one night bragging about what a great price matcher I am when my friend’s husband – yes husband – proclaimed he could one up me as he shops hassle free with his Flipp App. What is this Flipp App? A handy little App right on your phone that searches all the flyers in your neighbourhood so you can easily find the best price. No sorting through flyers and trying to find the best price, no sifting through all the ads you’ve circled to show at the cash register and no more dirty looks! Yes this App is a price matchers dream. I have a personal challenge to never pay full price for anything again and with this App I am truly winning.

Flipp2I’m excited to tell you that this App just got better. Thanks to Flip App I am not only an expert price matcher but I am a newbie couponer too!! They have added a feature that matches manufacture coupons to the price match! I can’t believe how easy it is. To prove this I embarked on the #FLIPPCOUPONCHALLENGE  My goal; to use the Flipp app with 7 to 10 coupons found in the app and at least 5 coupon matchups and see how much I could save. I also wanted to do all of my shopping for the entire week.

The results?  This weeks grocery bill should have been $179.62 but thanks to Flipp App and the new coupon feature I only paid $136.92! That’s $42.70 still in my pocket and an overall savings of $26%. Thanks Flipp App!!

**My only complaint is that I did have difficulty finding the update on my Blackberry App, it was easier to find on the iphone and androids which for me means stealing the hubby’s phone to do the groceries.  I was told later to try accessing it via Goggle Play.

Conclusion:  Everyone should download and start using the Flipp right now!

 

So tell me, are you as in love with the idea of trying the Flipp App as I am?  Are you ready to start saving every time you shop?   Then I have some great news for you! Flipp doesn’t want you to have to wait!  Exclusive for my readers, an incredible giveaway! One lucky reader of How To Survive Life In The Suburbs will WIN a $100.00 VISA Gift Card so you can really save on that next big shopping trip! Woot!

Contest is open to Canadians only, and to those who have reached the age of majority in their province.  Please enter by using the Rafflecopter form provided below.  Closes Friday December 7th, 2015.

      I have been using Flipp for a while. I have used it lots for Christmas shopping this year. I regularly use it for diapers and save a few dollars each week.

      I use the flipp app to look at flyers when I’m on the road, keeping a watch for sales on meat, hoping to save at least a couple dollars

      I will we viewing the Weekly flyers for any sales to combine with coupons! Butter, flour & any baking extra would be great to save money on!

      November 29, 2015 at 2:17 pm

      I will search for my favorite coffee. It makes a big difference when I can find it on sale as opposed to full price. I would like to save 25% on my grocery bills if I can!

      I’d like to save on gluten-free food for my daughter who has celiac disease. Saving $20 + a week would be great.

    6. SueSueper says

      I frequently search for butter. I would like to save $20 a week if I can.

      November 26, 2015 at 11:27 pm

      I’d like to save on coffee and creamer. It would be great to save $10 or more in a month.

    8. Nicole L says

      November 26, 2015 at 4:41 pm

      I would definitely use it for diapers and formula. Would love to save at least 20-30$/month.

    9. Andrea D says

      November 26, 2015 at 3:38 pm

      I would search for pop & hope to save about $3-5 a week.

    10. Nate Fuller says

      November 26, 2015 at 12:35 pm

      It would be Pepsi I!d be looking to save on, we drink ALOT! And if I could even save 20% of my grocery bill I would be exstatic!

    11. Jennifer P. says

      November 26, 2015 at 1:03 am

      For me the biggest item I want to save money on is diapers so that is what I would look for first (and wipes, which I am actually really low on at the moment so that would take top priority too!). I would love to save at least $20 per week on my shopping bill.

    12. Harjit says

      November 25, 2015 at 2:21 am

      I have a baby and a toddler so I’m in constant need for deals on diapers, wipes and diaper genie bags. Thanks for the chance to win, Twitter fan@plumerea

    13. Cole Martinez says

      November 24, 2015 at 9:29 pm

      maybe soda. I buy it pretty frequently. I also like frozen meals

    14. Krista M says

      November 24, 2015 at 8:03 pm

      I downloaded the Flipp app & I’d like to find savings on frozen foods such as lightly breaded chicken strips or fillets. Other frozen foods too like hamburgers. I am looking to perhaps save around $5 to $10 each week. Looking forward to utilizing the app!

      would love to save on gardein & save 5.00 on my bill a week
