Shopping Tips

Do research online first
Before you plan your shopping, check your store’s Web site to see what the week’s specials are, if there are any coupons, and what items are seasonal and abundant, and thus good value. Compare prices between different supermarkets in your area.

Plan ahead
Decide what your weekly meals will be in advance so that you can use leftovers from one dinner in the following day’s lunch or dinner. Before shopping, check that you have all the necessary staples (flour, sugar, etc.), and jot down anything else you need for the week. Try making up an easy spreadsheet for a shopping list and food budget, then simply update it each time you head to the store.

I do apply the things you, said when shopping, and they are really working! If i have a list I don’t buy stuff that I don’t really need; and according to my needs I try to find the best offer online and then go shopping.

I’d also add to the list that most purchases aren’t final, you can return some things after they’ve been bought if you aren’t happy with them.
