Supermarket Saver By Donna Caubarreaux Using Cents-off Coupons can save On Your Grocery Bill "$77,,000,000,000 is slated for cent-off coupons this year by The nation's manufacturers," stated a representative from Nestle company Coffee division at a recent Refunders convention in Houston, Tex. Are you getting your share of this 77 billion dollars? If not, you are throwing away your money at the checkout counter instead of cashing in withe profitable hobby of refunding. If a supermarket in your area gives double cents-off days you can easily double your savings at the checkout stand. One supermarket in Houston tried to increase their business on their "slow" days by trying "double cents-off days" and quadrupled their business. The program was so successful that they continued "double days" every day. Rules on using cents-off at your supermarket are very simple. (1) Check the expiration date, if it is expired, throw it away. A helpful hint is to circle the date in red so it will be easy to spot and save time at the checkout (2) Use cents-off coupons wily on the product specified on the coupon. Do not embarress yourself by attempting to ask the clerk to accept a cents-off for a different product than listed withe form. It is against the law and considered fraud! (3) Give the proper coupon with the right product at the point of purchase. Don't hand a wad of coupons to the checkout cleric after you have umpteen bags of groceries already bagged! Put yourself in their, place and be extra courteous. (4) Figure out how much you saved, try it for a month of two and see if you are becoming a "Smart Shopper".

And April sales can help you get the supplies and materials you'll need at bargain prices, says Kathi Heberer, McHenry County Extension Adviser. Good buys during April include soaps, cleaning supplies, aprons and vacuum cleaners. Check for sales on paint, wallpaper and outdoor furniture. Compare prices in "no-frill" warehouse stores. April may also be a good time to buy ranges and clothes dryers. Look for tire sales in April and May. Sleepwear, infant's wear and lingerie clearances .abound during April, Ms. Heberer says. Also check for good buys on women's dresses and shoes and men's suits. Bargain hunters can find some good food buys in April. Potatoes and onions are in plentiful supply and prices should be quite low. A big supply in Texas makes cabbage one of this month's most reasonable buys. Asparagus and carrots are abundant and inexpensive. So is rhubarb. Pineapples may be a bargain, but check quality because it may vary. Lemons are also an excellent buy at this time of year. Strawberries are usually inexpensive during April, but recent poor weather may keep prices somewhat high er than usual, Ms. Heberer says. Local markets may have specials on strawberries though, so check prices. Pork and poultry continue to be excellent meat buys during April, The Northland Area Art league presents a demon stration on the "Art of Black Magic Painting", by Joan Sanford, Friday, April 18, at 8 p.m. at McHenry County college, Crystal Lake.

Monette Smith of Wonder Lake; Joseph Molinaro and Mrs. Karen Krumpen, both of Richmond. Illinois division goal of $6,300,000. While it is extremely important to achieve or surpass the goal to be able to build on the momentum in the attack against cancer, perhaps equally or more importantly is the society's effort this year to reassure the residents of McHenry that contrary to what one might think "not everything causes cancer." The American Cancer society's 1980 Crusade educational leaflet, "You Can Control the Risk of Cancer," will help in dividuals understand that their decisions are still extremely important in exercising control over their own destinies regarding cancer. The leaflet will tell how habits affect health, medical history is im- portant, health practices are crucial and workplace matters. The leaflet, which will be given to each in dividual contacted, contains a guide to more than 20 cancer-causing factors, ranking them from strong evidence to little evidence or myth, and restores to in dividuals a sense of reason by sorting out what are the really dangerous risks based on current information. Everyone in McHenry is urged to carefully read this leaflet, which is available from the local unit of the American Cancer society, and then give generously so that McHenry can continue to do its share in bringing about still more progress against this disease. The Cancer Crusade is not a part of the United Way.
