Grocery Saving Tips

by The Shopping Duck on April 15, 2008

Do you want to save money at the grocery store? Do you want to be able to open a savings account with all the extra money? I have found some great grocery money saving tips:

  • Skim or Low-Fat Milk costs less than Whole Milk
  • Medicine, such as painkillers, contact solution, etc., often costs less at a drugstore (such as CVS) than at the grocery store. Or try an online drugstore.
  • The cheaper items are always on the right. Usually we start scanning a product section from the left. This is where they place the higher priced items. Move to your right to find better deals.
  • The best bargains are usually closest to the floor. The most expensive items are at eye level.
  • End of Aisle displays usually have “sale” items, but comparable items may be cheaper on the aisle.
  • You can find a bakery outlet near you and get all your bread items at half the costs. Check out bakeryoutlets.com!

These are excellent tips. I’ve also found that if you are paying for produce by the item (like a pepper) – buy the biggest one… and if you’re paying per pound, by the smallest (like apples). That can save you money too.
