Fru-Gal Column June 24

Joining a rewards program at your favorite store gives you the opportunity to earn free products or discounts. Many of the programs also give incentives when you register your card online.
I have thought that I wouldn’t visit any particular store enough to make the program worthwhile, but you would be surprised at the coupons and other discount offers you receive when you join one of these clubs.
If you sign up for these reward programs, you never know what might come your way.
