Never Run Out of Common Household Items with Alice.com

Alice.com is a service that can help to keep your pantry, cleaning supplies, and toiletries stocked by reminding you when you need to purchase common household items, and then shipping them to you.

After you create your free account, simply browse through the different “rooms” that have items you need to stock up on.  For example, in the bathroom you would find toilet paper, dental floss, toothpaste, shaving cream, etc.  You can browse through products by brand, price, and even coupon savings.  Since Alice automatically applies any coupons available to your order, you don’t need to worry about searching online for one.  There are a lot of products available and I was able to find almost every brand that I already use, and most were offered at a lower price than I would pay at my neighborhood drugstore.

Alice will also allow you to select how long it will be before you think you’ll need the item again, and will send you a reminder to re-order so you don’t run out.  Did I mention the best part yet?  Shipping is FREE.  Yep, I said free!  This means that you can set up your account filled with all of the basics that you’ll always need and simply click a few buttons to have them sent to you.  Not only were the prices great, but free shipping means that I don’t have to carry tons of bags from the store!
