Pros: It's fun to use and you *can* save money. Cons: I don't think my winning streak will last in the long run.
I have to confess, I am a victim of marketing. The "Wow! I just saved 50% on groceries" testimonial ads....the raves from friends & relatives....the free Priceline cards that dangled next to the register at our local grocery store...and of...

Pros: You name the price, get brand name items Cons: Delays getting online sometimes.
A couple of weeks ago I received in the mail a priceline.com Web House Club Card. I read the information, and was very pleased to learn that I could name my own price for groceries. I was also pleased to learn that I could use this card at my local...

Pros: Can save a lot of money on groceries!! Cons: If you're brand loyal, you may have to compromise; does take some planning and time, but it pays off
I've used Priceline to buy most of my groceries the last few weeks and I'm hooked! When you sign up you get 6 free half price tokens. You can sign up for things to get more tokens, but you only use them for items like meats and fruit/veggies or when...

Pros: Excellent savings! Cons: You don't always get exactly the brand you want!
It was good while it lasted but this part of Priceline is no more so I guess it's back to cutting coupons for me...R.I.P.
I've used this site for about four months now and I'm happy to say that my opinion of this site is that...

Pros: Save a good amount of money Cons: If your price is not accepted, you cannot bid again for 24 hours
I kept seeing Priceline offers in my local grocery store, and finally decided to try it when I got both the webhouse card & the gasoline card in the mail recently. I went on the site and signed up, thinking that it was going to be a complicated...

Pros: cheaper groceries Cons: difficult web page, confusing deals, annoying ads
I decided to check out this new grocery offer thru Priceline after having seen it advertised in the local Kroger ad. I thought this would be a great thing, get groceries at a cheaper price. However, there are several catches to this. The first is, you...

Pros: Easy to get a card Cons: Hell on earth when you get it
As with most of the reviews, I saw the hype and thought it sounded great. I sent for my cards (grocery and gas) and waited expectantly. .
The first problem I had came when I first tried to sign on with the cards. It had taken so long to get...

Pros: I get diapers for cheap Cons: after all charges you spend too much time for little selection and poor customer service
Priceline's grocery service was great at first but as time went on it was to good to be true. After all the frustration I have decided to use priceline for diapers only. I have made a short list to address my concerns for current and future Priceline...

Pros: It can save you money on your groceries Cons: You really have to know your grocery prices
I have been using Priceline for grocery shopping for several months now, and so far I will continue to use it to save myself money on groceries.
I live in Maine so I was surprised when all of a sudden the big grocery store chain up here...

Pros: Was a good way to save money - quite a bit of it - on your grocery shopping Cons: It's Dead, Jim.
Revised 10/2000
Well, it was nice while it lasted, but Priceline Webhouse Club has now officially bitten the dust. It was not difficult to see it coming - half-price tokens became harder and harder to find, their use was being limited more...

Pros: Savings, good selection Cons: Separating items leads to longer store time.
Anyone who knows me knows that saving money on grocery shopping is a big thing with me. Ever since I was in college and living on a shoestring, I've been a huge coupon clipper and hoarder of sales fliers; my grocery lists include brands and prices. So,...

Pros: Not enough to make me a return customer Cons: You can't pick your own brands, having to prepay
I know this is going against the tide of opinions. It is probably a matter of teaching an old dog new tricks, not that I am admitting to being old. However, I have found in my few excursions with Priceline that I can do better myself with the old...

Pros: amusing for the computer geek in you, does offer some savings. Cons: customer service is poor and many aspects of the program are misleading
With 3 growing kids in the house, I am always looking for ways to cut corners, especially when it comes to feeding them! Priceline groceries seemed like a good idea to me, and as I am an admitted Computer Geek, anything that I can do on my computer HAS...

Pros: Good while it lasted Cons: No longer available
It was great while it lasted! Unfortunately this portion of Priceline has now gone out of business. I guess I'll just have to get used to paying full price for my gas and groceries again. :(
BTW... Here are the e-mails that were sent out in...

Pros: HUGE savings, easy to use Cons: Need to separate orders and pay twice
I discovered Priceline Webhouse about 4 months ago through a friend. She couldn't say enough good things about the savings she was experiencing I just had to see for myself. I was extremely skeptical and had only intentions on checking out the site but...
