Re: Suggestion Box: Post idea you would like to see at HCW here. If you don't want your state to show, can't you just put the state next to yours? The whole point is to be able to figure out if deals are in your area, or if you should check first with your store before doing all the work of gathering coupons, and driving to the store.
Even tho' I live in a major metropolitan area (Minneapolis), I do not get every ad in my sunday paper. To know that someone is posting a deal by CVS and they live in Iowa vs. California is important to me and saves me the step of having to go online and download the ad. If they live in Iowa, the chances that my CVS has the same deal is very likely, and if they live in CA, it's very likely that my CVS will not be sponsoring the same prices/deals. Of course, if my paper just came with every ad that would be great, but even the inserts that come in the paper by the same newspaper company can be different by region here in Minneapolis! The 2 CVS's that are closest to me are 4 and 5 miles away, which is a wasted trip just to get an ad, or head there with coupons and see the deal doesn't exist.
And believe it or not, I really am for keeping your identity private, but I don't really see how your state will affect that. On this website we even discuss the actual locations of the stores we go to, indicating what deal is to be found, or if we cleared a shelf of a certain item or it has peelies.
My name appears "billig", but it has nothing to do with me. There's nothing you could search about billig that would lead you to me, except that it's Swedish for 'cheap'.
Of course all of this is JMHO. |
