Ten for Ten

It depends if it's the 10 for $10 that you don't have to buy all 10 items to get them for the $1 price. One of the chains here has started this mix and match thing along the same lines like 5 for $10 , 5 for $20 (processed meats), and 5 for $5. The sad thing sometimes you can get the 5 for $10 w/o buying the 5 other times you have to buy 5 to get the reduced price and I don't think it's always very fair.

Its a good sale if you know the regular price. I often do 10 for $10 if they are things that I will use alot or know I will use in a few weeks. If they are regularly priced higher than a dollar and you know you will use the item, its a good deal. But watch the regular price...if they are regularly 88 cents each, a sale of 10 for $10 is not a good sale...you are paying more than regular price! Dry goods that are on sale like that are a good investment...paper towels and such. Theydon't go bad. However...some canned goods do. I just tossed a couple cans of stuff I bought on a sale like that...thinking I'd have the kids over or the grand kids...and then didn't and the expiration date expired so I lost money. So just watch what you are buying...compare price to regular price and make sure you will use them. I know people usually stock up for "a rainy day" and out here we stock for earthquake preparedness but you also have to watch that and rotate stock. Just cause it is in a can, doesn't mean it is "good" forever.

Well i think it's a good deal because usually where i live you can buy as many as you want and it will only be a dollar each and you don't have to buy the same thing you can mix up the ten for ten items so i would say it is a good deal in my opinion.

Hi jahernandezrivas, I dont know what you brought 10 for 10$. It depends on what you are getting for ten dollars because if you are in India and you get 10 soaps for 10$ i would say it is pretty bad deal because we can get very good top brand soaps for 40 to 50 cents each. Also i think if you are getting a real good deal then you should buy and buy in good quantity so there is real benefit, it might hurt you first month if you are really poor, but it would pay off much more in next few months.

Recently, I've notice some of the 10 for $10 deals now are forcing you to buy 10 to get the discount. Just another way to catch customers off guard at the cash register. More than likely people don't even notice that part of the sign. Keep a look out for these scams. Best Wishes!

It sounds like a good deal but sometimes it depends on the stuff you need for the house like the one you mentioned.I would grab the deal if it includes the basic household items however I would hesitate if it does not include it.Lets just say $10 for 10 screwdrivers or $10 for 10 slippers, it would just be a waste of money, what am I going to do with the extra stuff.lol

When i am grocery shopping, i tend to gravitate to the ten for ten deals myself. I think you can get a lot of good bargains that way. If you are a smart shopper you can really save some money on them.

Hi ja hernandez rivas: I agree with you, that's a very important point. It's nmot all about the prices but you also have to think if you really need the things you are about to buy and if it's that's exactly what you need. If you buy more items than you really need you are actually losing part of the money you invest. ALVARO

There are times that the ten for ten seems like a great deal, but then buying so many of them leaves us short on cash for other things. If we can use all of the multiple items then in the long wrong we can save money. Sad part is that we are strapped usually right when the deals come out, so not easy to stock up at times. I have at times bought the ten for then and or will shop elsewhere where the item might be a bit cheaper too. lol I am always looking for cheaper.

Well, it depends on your need for the item. But when it's not needed, why would you buy it. Sometimes, promos such as this could really be enticing. Even if you don't need them yet and it's not in your budget you would buy them.

jaher== yes. 10 for 10 is good provided we buy things and make use of them or dispose of the balance items to others for cost. Otherwise for people like us slogging for a long time on this-- it may not be fully useful
