Day 2 Save Money on Groceries.
Shop sales and freeze. Plan your meals based on sale items in the store ad. If checken is discounted for the week, make a large batch of your favorite poultry dish and freeze the leftovers in portionready servings.
Buy normal quantities. When a product is on sale as"buy 4 for 1" you don't have to purchase four ot them to get the sale price. Buy only as many as you'll eat before the product goes to waste.
Make snack packs. Avoid vending machinerobbery; ites van cost triple their grocery store equivalent. Buy and package healthy portions o snack mixes, fruits, and vegetables for a lateafternoon pick-me-up. Save on break-room sodas by filling empty water boyttles with lemonade.
Buy produce in season. It's less expensive to purchase produce in its grrowing season, and it's highest nutrient content then too. Buy fresh fruit in summer, then freeze it to enjoy smoothies all year long.
Try store brands. Brand-name products can cost up to 50 percent more than some store brands. Be willing to try store brands on certain items, but consider the quality before you decide to switch.
