Save Money On Grocery Shopping – While Shopping

While shopping for groceries, try to stick to the guidelines to save more money.

• Stick to what’s on your shopping list.
• Meat is a good source of protein but it’s expensive. Cheese, poultry, eggs, peanut butter, dried peas, beans, lentils, and some fish are less expensive and excellent sources of protein.
• Buy locally grown foods; they are fresher, more nutritious and ecologically smart.
• Shop the sales! Take advantage of each store’s loss leaders.
• Most bargains are found on the higher and lower shelves. Most expensive brands are at eye level (to get your attention).
• Watch for unadvertised specials.
• Shop for items that you use regularly at all times. If you run out, you will have to pay whatever the supermarket may be charging when you need it.
• Stockpile, Stockpile, Stockpile! If a product you use is on sale, buy as much as you can afford and store to last you until the next sale. This is a BIG money saver!
