Here are some of my BEST tips.
- Watch for weekly store sales
- Buy in Bulk then Freeze into family size portions
- Find a store w/o the fancy aisles cost will more likely be lower
I feel so lucky to have a grovery store just a few miles from home thus saving gas as well as finding items that please my family and the prices on some items are a dollar less than a bigger grocery store. I go for quality in meats, veggies, milk, eggs, butter, cheese and I find them consistently at my local store. You might not be so lucky to live in close proximity to a great store in which case you'll have to venture out.
Buying in bulk is not something I do much, since I found this store with their wonderful prices. I could not believe at first and have told my friends who thought that it would not be worth their time to patronize such a store.
I HAVE NO IDEA HOW THEY COMPETE WITH BIGGER, MORE PUBLICIZED STORES with UP-TO-DATE aisles of goodies.
I highly recommend you find stores with good nutritious foods at a price that saves on your food budget.
