Find the Best Price

Did you know that you can “shop” without spending any money? The idea is to see how much money different stores want you to pay for the same product.

How can you do this? You can read the ads and sales paper that different stores have. You can also look at different stores' Web sites. That way you can see how much something will cost before you go to the store.
