Looking to up my couponing involvement .. Prices & Size

[FlashForward]

I am looking to up my couponing involvement. I never kept track of size and prices. But the more stores I am shopping at the more confusing it is getting. Different prices and different product sizes.

Is there a spreadsheet that I can print out somewhere online? No idea how to go about creating my own.

Thanks for your help!

google "pricebook."

You really can't be an awesome couponer without paying some attention to price and size. For instance, the only way to know if the giant mega pack of toilet paper at Sam's is a better deal than the 4 pack at the regular store, is to do a little math and compare price per unit. so price per ounce price per pound, price per foot in the case of a paper product like TP. If you start doing this, you will begin to kind of know what a good price per unit is for items you buy regularly. So if you spot a good sale or a good coupon-sale matchup, you'll be able to make an educated decision about whether it's a good deal.

To do all of this, you might want to start a pricebook for at least the items you buy most often. If you google a little I'm sure you'll come up with a lot of sites that tell you how to set one up. I'm not sure there is one nationally just because prices vary so much from region to region (and even at different stores within the same chain).
