Whether you are hosting this Thanksgiving or need a dish to pass, it’s great when you can do it all without putting a big dent in your wallet. Instead of pawing through all of the newspaper ads or typing the names of individual stores into Google, how about using Flipp.com?
What is it? Flipp is a website or app which allows you to type in your zip code and key words you are searching for. Then, ads that match your product in the specific area you are looking will show up. I used the zip code for FOX 17 and here’s what I found. Many of these stores are throughout West Michigan, too.
