About it.   I tried this time to separate food groups.   To make it easier to shop.  
Save time where you can and don't save time where  it counts.    Taking the time to clip a dollar coupon, or plan a meal to ise up what you have , or to find the best buys on the things you use  regularly makes money.    It cuts your food bill.    Spending all day on the grocery store makes you spend more.    The more time you spend in a store, the more money you will spend.   Stats show that the bigger the grocery cart, the more you will spend if you aren't aware  of what you are spending.

Go to the store with a list or a good idea of what you are going to buy.  I know before I ever walk into the store, what I need, what's on sale, amd what I used up so if it's a good price , I need to replenish,  

You can bet that if I go to Winco I will

  • replentish the sliced olives if we used them and they are .58 
  • replentish the diced milk peppers at .58 - the lowest price anywhere.   
  • Check the bread supply 


  •  

I know usually, if I need dairy and if there is an Ibotta or coupon for it.    I also know of Fred Meyer has a lower price.   Often they do certain weeks.    
          Vegetables usually have the cheapest prices, cheaper than the fresh food market.   I, too already know of I need something and how much it is at FM.

The only impulse buys will be if something is marked down dramatically and I know it will keep or we can use. It.   Chocolate rice crispies were a dollar off a bag.   I'm all over that.  We use six cups every time we make crispy treats.

My average grocery basket is 25.00 unless I find a really good meat sale.   I haven't found one of those lately. I'm looking for split chicken breast.   They are a bit higher than what they are in sake at FM.  I just haven't seen a sale, they missed their rotation.
