Noise when I come to a stop

Past few month when I'm driving on local streets and coming to a stop or stop sign I'll hear some(I'd say 70% the time) squeaky or bouncy(maybe grinding? or like springs?). At first I thought it was my brake pads going bad so I had them changed but the sound still remains... I use to use the car for restaurant grocery(sometimes heavy, trunk filled up) shopping(half a year almost) with 3 passenger+ me as well and that could wear out my suspension? I'm starting to think that maybe a spring or shocks? or shaft? I don't know much about cars. I noticed that the gap (gap between the actually tire and the fender) of both side(passenger and driver side) of the back wheels are lower or lesser than the gap on the both front wheels, is that normal? My car is bone stock.
Need this fix! >< its embarrassing when I'm out with girls(usually i listen to music so it doesn't bother me but when a girl sits they don't like loud music[get my drift?]).

Yeah, with constant overloading your springs may have sagged and suspension components may be worn out. You should get it checked out.

Kind of broke to bring it to mechanic to charge me X amount to inspect the problem and X more amount to fix it(hopefully its the problem) or it cost more to fix something else...

Wanted to get a idea of or know if anyone had/known this issue before.

Can you post up a video of the sound? That might help us help you...
