Shopping on a Budget

Before going to the store:

  • Check weekly ads
  • Make a meal plan for the week
  • Check pantry and refrigerator for items you have
  • Organize your list to the layout of the store

Where to find bargains

  • Look to the top and bottom shelves for better priced items
  • Buy fresh produce that is in season
  • Check bargain bins
  • Consider store/generic brands

When at the store

  • Shop alone if possible
  • Shop only once per week
  • Shop on a full stomach
  • Use coupons only for items you normally buy
  • Buy only what is on your list
  • Stock up on nonperishables when they are on sale

More money saving tips

  • Plan at least one meatless meal each week
  • Limit pre-prepared foods as they cost more
  • Use leftovers for another meal
  • Freeze leftover veggies to add to a soup
  • Buy non-food items, such as soap and paper products at a discount store
  • Use lower cost proteins such as eggs, peanut butter, beans, & yogurt
