Never shop when you're hungry. You're likely to buy more impulse items and junk food. You'll spend less money if you shop with a list. So write down what you need and buy only what is on the list. Consider buying generic items. Most of them taste just as good as the over-priced brands. Use coupons. You can save a ton of money, especially in those stores that do double coupon savings. Remember cooking? Those convenience foods cost a lot more. You don't have to start from scratch, but if you're willing to spend a little more time in the kitchen, you can spend more time in the bank -- counting your money. Be careful when buying large sizes. Sometimes the unit price is more. Shop at a farmer's market. You'll spend much less for fruits and vegetables. Those cash register scanners are not always accurate. Make a list of the real cost of each item you buy and make sure the cash register receipt is a match. Buy fruits and vegetables in season. It costs more to buy imported produce. Bring your lunch to work. It will save you money, time and hassle. Article Source: http://www.articlewheel.com
