First, I'd just like to say how thankful I am that Casey Parks hasn't forgotten about Cornelius. I'm glad that she's the Oregonian's eyes & ears, writing stories about the place we call home. I had the opportunity in meeting with her for a brief interview for her Cornelius Walmart article. Thanks Casey for all that you do! But especially for not forgetting about the little speck on the map that is Cornelius.

Excellent Bankrate.com Article

Take grocery coupons to the next level by Jay MacDonald
http://www.bankrate.com/finance/personal-finance/take-grocery-coupons-to-the-next-level-1.aspx

The article basically describes the different grocers out there, their different offerings and pricing styles. It closes mentioning Walmart's massive competition in the razor-thing market of margins. I hope to share on this blog my own findings. Plotting the highs and lows of pricing for certain items that I buy regularly. We'll see how that turns out.
