CINCINNATI, OH. (October 3, 2012) — Savings.com announced today that Valpak has signed on as a major sponsor for Savings Nation coupon classes in the Cincinnati and Dayton region. The Savings Nation classes, powered by Savings.com, are part of a nationwide movement that has empowered thousands of families to cut their grocery expenses by 50-70%. The sponsorship further demonstrates Valpak’s commitment to the community by helping consumers make smart purchasing decisions.

Savings Nation classes in Cincinnati and Dayton are led by Andrea Deckard, founder of the popular local money-saving website, Savings Lifestyle. Her classes provide simple ways to save on groceries by coupon clipping, strategic shopping, and meal planning. As the major sponsor, Valpak will raise awareness for the classes via a marketing promotion to hundreds of thousands of local residents.

“At Valpak, we are committed to making a positive difference in peoples’ lives by promoting smart spending behaviors and by ending wasteful ones,” said Ric Welker, Valpak of Cincinnati-Dayton franchisee. “Groceries are an area of the family budget where there is a lot of opportunity to save, and with the cost of groceries continuing to skyrocket, we really wanted to be involved. Andrea Deckard and the Savings Nation program provide phenomenal curriculum, tools and support to help achieve real results.”

“The Savings Nation coupon class is important for our communities because it changes the way consumers think about spending and saving money,” said Andrea Deckard. “I am thrilled to have Valpak on board as a sponsor. In addition to being one of the largest and most reputable brands in the industry, they also care about the community, and we have a shared goal of helping to make a difference in people’s lives. We will be able to reach more people and hold more classes thanks to Valpak.”
