Be a Better Shopper

So, you want to be a better shopper? Here are some tips that can get you started. You can quickly slash food expenses by 10% by buying fewer snack foods and “impulse” items and making better use of store brands and coupons. Don’t shop when you are hungry; you will spend up to 17% more. Always check the weekly sale ads and use them to help plan your shopping list and meals.

Buy in quantity when the price is right. Buy the product and not the name. Look at store brands; they are almost always less expensive than the name brands. Stay away from convenience foods; you are paying for the packaging. If using coupons, compare the coupon product with the store brand. You may find the store brand price is lower than the name brand with the coupon. Know what foods you have on hand to prevent overbuying.
