If you are reading this and you shop at Kroger and YOU look at my Kroger matchups to make your list…. I NEED YOUR OPINION! PLEASE.
I know you are probably busy and hate to take the time to leave a comment but I really, really, really, I mean, really, need your input. These lists take HOURS to type up each week and I want to make sure that they are what you want and what you like.
In the past few months I have had a different style printable list, and I want to know if you like the old list or the new list format.
Take a look at them:
What do you like, what do you dislike, can you tell a difference, do you not care. I just need some input and I also need to know if you even use the matchups. Anything you have to comment on please do! Thanks!!

I like the new format better because it tells me where and what category its in, just easier for me that way.
The new one looks cleaner and easier on the eye
I like the new format, its reader friendly.
LOVE the new format – much easier to read and THANKS for all you do!
I like the new format better, its easier to read and see at a glance what are the best deals.
I use these all the time!!! I like the new format much better because u can skip certain area your not interest in looking at and it’s much easier to read.
TY 🙂
New
Definitely like the new format better. Having the prices listed and out of pocket price really helps. also like having them in categories. Thanks!
I like the new one the best, but the old one works too for me.
I like the old better. The new is fine, but if you give me a choice I would go with the old way. I like to see the ad.
I like the new version. It looks cleaner, more user friendly, and easier to read.
Thanks for all of your hard work. 🙂
I don’t know if this works the same way but another blog did the same thing. I’m totally cool with the old look. 🙂 It’s really difficult getting use to a new layout.
The new one most definitely!
I prefer list 1. Honestly I only need to see the actual match-ups. I can read and study the sale bulletin at home on my own. I just skip thru yours and only look at the match-ups.
I agree with Stephanie, I only check for the match-ups. I study the bulletin’s at home. So whichever list is less time consuming for you, works for me.
I like the second one. I would personally like the font a tad bigger. 🙂
If you hit control and the + sign it will enlarge the screen for you, just hit control and – to take it back down.
I like the new one. Much better especially when trying to access from a mobile device. 🙂 the older one somehow cuts off.
hope this helps
New format with the categories
I really like the new format better. Keep the new one please….
I don’t really see a difference, but I can say that I like both of your coupon match-up formats more than any others I have seen in other blogs.
I like the new format. All of the matchups are very helpful.
new!!
I prefer the old style. I like how all my stores’ picks are on one ‘my list’. I have formed a routine when I do my couponing and the new style kinda throws me off a bit. I also want to thank you for all the work you put into your site, especially the deal match ups. I visit your site at least twice a day and my husband even gets tweets from you and makes sure I don’t miss anything. You have helped me learn to coupon over the last 2 years and I thank you very much. 🙂
Thank YOU so much!! I am so glad to know that they are being used! When you say “my list” is it the drop down that you can print your list from?
“my list” drops down as I add to it & I print it when I’m ready to shop. Again, THANK YOU!!! I could not do this without all your work.
New list
I like the old way a little better, maybe I am just used to it. I do check the matchups to see if there is anything I might have missed or for the coupon links. Thanks for all the hard work you do.
Love the new one!
The new format is much easier for me to use. Thank you for all you do.
I like the new… I also like the out of pocket price. I like pictures of hauls that people post also. I also like the facebook updates I do check out what you post. Please keep doing what you do I find it really helpful. Thank you!
I’ve been seeing the new format on a different blog and I really like it. Sometimes I would get overwhelmed by the lists and just skip it all together but the new format is much easier and simpler.
New format. It is easier to read and still has all the important info for the great sales.
I like the new one better, it’s easier to go back n forth with them separated into categories. However, I say you do the one that is easier for you. I for one can not thank you enough for all that you do. I am still learning how to do this & all your hard work shows & is very much appreciated.
THANK YOU!!!!!
I like the new format. I like how it is broken down my category and I like how it shows the final price after coupons.
Thanks for all you do!
I like the new format. I also liked when you color coded things, green, red, and black.
I like the new format. Simple, to the point and easy to read. I use it all the time. Thank you for all your hard work.
I like the new format
Honestly I like the old ones better. Even though there is not a lot of difference, I liked that the sale stuff was listed first (like the Mega Event stuff or Super Sale) then the rest of the sale items were listed. With the new model, I am not sure if the stuff is all part of the event or if it’s just on sale so it makes it harder for me to plan.
To be honest, I deeply rely on this site to plan my shopping trips! If I ever have a question of what’s on sale I just go to your site! Bc here I not only get what’s on sale I get pointed to coupons & great deal ideas.
Unless I am not reading the new format correct, my vote goes to the old style 😉
Stephanie thank you so much! I think the thing that might be confusing is on the mega event weeks there are 2 tabs at the top of the list. One is for the regular list and the other tab ( which you have to click ) is for the mega event items. This is the 1 thing I was most worried about is that it would be hard to fins the mega event items because it was such a different way of displaying them.
I agree with Stephanie, I like the old format better because it is much easier to tell what is on sale. I also like to see the match ups right away and the new format seems to just list out the sales ad.
The new. I like the categories, nice for the weeks when I don’t have much time.
The new one
I like the old style, to me it seems easier to understand. Thank you for all the work you do to help us all save more money
I like the new one . Thanks for all you do I couldnt coupon with out your blog!!
I like the new one.
I appreciate both formats, but if I must choose I like the newer format better 😉
I like the new one much cleaner. I love to look at the match ups because I do not have the time to figure it out myself. Thank you for all you do.
I liked the old one a tiny bit better, but I’ve adjusted… so its not a deal breaker for me! I think I was just accustomed to the old one. Love that you do them, anyway you want!
Well thank you, let me know if you have any suggestions!
I like the new one.
Like the newer format!!! Thanks for all your hard work, you have helped me be able to cut my grocery bill in half!!
I like the new post.
I like the new one better! Thanks for all your hard work.
I like both. I like the ad on the old one with the list of coupons. I like the new one bc it groups them. I just appreciate what you do!!
Love, love the new format! I like it because it is in categories. Its easy to follow. 🙂
The “New format”!It also looks easier for you.
If given the choice I prefer the old but the new is fine
I totally agree with Teresa Burke. Thank you for all your hard work. A great HUGE BIG THANK YOU for all that you do. Keep up the great work.
Thank YOU! Really, I am so glad to see so many people using it!
It is easier to see the matchups. The list is clear. I can to the category I want easily. Great Job! I love your website.
new, b/c has out of pocket price
I love the new one. ..
I like the new one!!
Thanks for all your hard work 🙂
New format
I LIKE THE NEW FORMAT BETTER.
I really love the new format! Easy to read, nicely organized, better fonts. Thank you for putting these together! I’m sure it is time consuming, but it makes a huge difference for my family!!
I love the new format! Much more “user-friendly”! Thank you for all of your time and effort that you put into this! 🙂
I like the new format.
I like the way best. I always start my list with your match ups. Thanks for all the hard work.
I like the new format better, things are listed in categories I also like that it has the out of pocket cost. And it just looks a lot neater. Thanks for taking time each week to do the match ups.
I LOVE the new format! I have trouble reading on the computer and the new one just makes it SO much easier!
Like the majority of the people, I like the new format. I can see everything clearly and the posts show me my net per item if I use any coupons.
New one. Thanks for all your hard work. Much appreciation.
New is better. Easier to read. Thanks for all you and your husbands blogging you do. What a very special kind of family you have. 🙂
I like the new way…but also like the old one as well. The out of pocket is very useful. I have your site in my favorites and check it several times a day. Really appreciate the Kroger matchups since this is the main grocery store in my area. Thank you for all your hard work.
I like the new format, easier to read..thanks for all u do .

New
I prefer the old one but I can adjust to the new one.
I like the new format. I love your matchups and couldn’t do this without you. Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication.
I like the new format better. 🙂
I appreciate all and any help! You do what’s easiest for you!! Thank you for helping us help our families!
The new one
I like the new version much better! Thank you for all you do!
The new one is easier for me, but either way I really appreciate the work you do.
I love the new one, it is easier to the eye to me…. Thxs i love all your matchups and truly appreciate all your hard work bc i know it takes a lot of time 🙂
I like the new version.. much easier read.
New one.
NEW!!! 🙂
The new format is fabulous!!
I like the new format, especially the stars by the really good deals.
I love the Kroger matchup s!! I save a ton of money! I like the new format best. Thanks!
The new one looks better and makes it easier to find the product that you need.
The new one looks simpler. I honestly don’t look at these very often, and I look at your website multiple times during the day if I have the time. I look more closely when you specifically identify an item on sale that is closer to a stock up price.
Love the new format. Looks cleaner and easier to read. While I can do the math, I appreciate seeing the final price. It helps me pick out the great deals quicker. Thank you for all you do!
Like most others, like the new one.
I like the new one. You have done an excellent job sorting everything into categories and I can pass up the items/categories that I am not looking for that trip.
Thank you immensely for all your prep work/research/just plain ol’ spelling everything out for those of us who need each level of help. Between you and my cpn buddy at home, I don’t know how I would survive.
New one rocks…thanks
New one
I like the new format!! I mainly use your match ups to go thru and find what I might buy. I’m pretty picky since I try to stay away from HFCS, GMO’s and other things like the sorts so I usually do not buy snacks, cereals, sugary drinks etc. Mainly I look for paper goods, diapers, soaps etc!
I like the new format, I like that it’s broken down into sections so I can scan quickly for the section I want. I like the bolder fonts so it’s easier to read.
I also like the new list for the same reasons. I check your site throughout the day to keep up with the sales. I did notice the added tab, last time, bc I am used to you showing us the mega event match-ups. I don’t get the Wednesdays paper, Sunday only, so I have to check the online ad instead of the paper one. Your list helps me, especially able to make my list from yours with the drop down. I have been a follower of yours for three years. I also like the posted deals others have made during the sale week. Thank you for helping me save money and buy more than we ever could afford. (We are a family of 5 on a limited income)
I like the new list the most. Thanks for all you & Paul do to save us money
I may be in the minority here, but I sooooo prefer the old format. The new format list seems much longer, and includes items that are on sale, but are not necessarily deals or do not have coupons associated with them. For me, the older format was much easier to read and much easier to find the deals I needed. Thanks!
I am liking the new list more–it is more organized and easier to find what I need to look at. I appreciate all you and your family do! I never really look at Pauls because I really never go to walmart, but thanks for all yall do, it makes a world of difference!
I love the new format. It is much easier to navigate the store
I like the new one better, cleaner and easier on the eye.
They are both nice in their own way. However, I prefer the new look. I love the way things are listed under categories and it looks much cleaner and is easier to follow. Thanks for all of your hard work! You make my life easier!
Sometimes, about 1/2 down a long matchup, my eyes glaze over and I quit. I can’t take it anymore. The new one looks nice with the darker category headers.
What are the gold stars in front of items for? Is that to mark the Mega sale items, etc?
I am comfortable with the old style, but I don’t mind the new one. I specifically use the list for the match ups! Thank you for all the work!
We are relocating next year to California. You don’t happen to have a twin in California with a blog like yours, do you?? (haha)
I like the new format. It’s easier for my brain I guess. I really appreciate all the time and effort you put in to help so many! We stock up at our house and share with our local food bank. 30,000 needy folks get food there per year. You are helping so many! God bless you! Thank you so much!!!
New format is easier to read it’s pleasing to the eyes. And, how you have the items listed is better and they are organized by product :). Keep up the hard work you do for all of us to enjoy our savings. I went back through all of my bank statements for the year. And, I’ve saved since January until now a total of $4,943.99 in coupon savings that is outstanding since I’ve only be doing this about 2 full years!
That is amazing Gena! I am going to post that!
like the new format
just a note, watch your e-coupons to make sure they are taken off at check out. the past 2 times i have been to kroger’s the e-coupons did not work and i had to go back and get my money. they sort of made me mad b/c they did not believe me and logged into my kroger act. i had even printed a copy of my e-coupons to show them.
