Shop for produce at a local farm stand.
Never buy coffee, soda, or other drinks or snacks out.
Always grocery shop with a list.
Take advantage of sales on items that you would normally buy.
Keep a price book and track prices by unit cost.
Stockpile staples when prices are low.
Plan meals according to what is on sale that week.
Buy enough of a sale item to last 12 weeks. That’s about how long sales take to cycle.
Shop at discount marts: Grocery outlet, The Dollar Store, etc.
Watch out for deals on things that your friends need, and have them do the same for you.
