Grocery shopping tips

With the prices of groceries going up up up having a few helpful tips to save some money is always helpful.

Here are some tips I use or found as I was reading things.

Make a menu for the time frame your shopping for if you shop by the week then make a menu for 7 days.

Check and see what food you already have on hand at home.

Never shop when hungry I am so bad for this and end up with impulse buys.

Check what day your store puts meat on mark down prices lots of time you can get 30 to 50% off sometimes even more. These items you can bulk buy and freeze off.

Watch items you buy that seem to go to waste before you use them.  I know celery is one of the things that go to waste here, so I have started to use what I need that week then the rest I chop up and freeze it still works great in soups and stuff like that.

Shop places that price match then go check your weekly flyers for the best prices and price match.
