Since gas prices are soaring high, we thought that we could give you a few tricks to keep the grocery budget a bit lower. Any way to save can help! :-) Here are some helpful tips that can help any mom, or dad spend less at the grocery store and still make satisfying and healthy meals. Enjoy!
- Go shopping alone ( if you take your kids your going to spend a lot more)
- Have a budget and stick to it
- Make fewer, larger trips (Create a day to do all your grocery shopping for the week or every two weeks if you can)
- Don’t shop hungry (the hungrier you are, the more you put into your shopping cart)
- Plan your meals in advance
- Scan your cupboards, pantry, and fridge before leaving ( This allows you to use what you already have to create fantastic meals)
- Keep a running list of items you need on your fridge
- Clip (and use!) coupons for name brand items
- Check the store’s website for printable coupons
- Avoid non-grocery items that can be bought for less elsewhere
- Cook from scratch, avoid processed foods (Cost more)
- Avoid frozen/prepared entrees
- Eat more fruits/veggies, cut back on meat
