Bing Cashback was a great time, made so many deals sweeter.

My favorite deal of all time involved Walgreens, 1800 Flowers and Bing Cashback.

It was around valentines day, and Walgreens had boxes of chocolate for something like $4 that had a peelie sticker with a code for $20 to 1-800 Flowers (I believe it was the deal mentioned here ). I bought 3 of those, so 3 $20 stickers. Now these worked as gift cards towards 1-800 Flowers so they were stackable, and better yet, Bing Cashback had 25%, and since these were gift cards and not coupons, I got 25% back on the full price ($60*.25=$15).

So the final result was something like $12 out of pocket at Walgreens, 2 dozen roses shipped to my house for valentines day, and about $15 cashback from bing.

3 boxes of chocolate, 2 dozen roses, and $3 in my pocket.

I won a Macbook Air around thanksgiving last year. Prize was shipped quickly too. Love the site (saved tons of money, and now I'm the official deal finder in my family) and I won a ~$1000 prize

So I love Slickdeals for finding general merchandise, and it is excellent for that. However, one area that I wish worked better was the grocery store type items. I know you guys have a forum dedicated for it, but it is mostly about coupons, and isn't very friendly for newcomers or casual viewers. And, unlike most regular slickdeals deals, grocery stores are very regional (even if a particular store is nationwide, the prices for groceries varies widely).

It would be awesome to have a tool where you put in your grocery list, and it gives you the cheapest place to buy those items right now. Of course to keep all that pricing data up to date is a huge task, but if any website has the community to do that, it is slickdeals.

Of course a tool like that would require a huge amount of work to make it work well. So I guess my question is there anything bigger and better on the horizon for slickdeals and groceries?
