I will load up the cupboards with expensive and not so healthy foods if I am hungry when I am grocery shopping, and I often won’t even realize that I’ve done so until I get home and start to unload them all. Good tips!

That’s pretty hardcore! That would really come in handy as well when you’re trying to compare unit costs and the store intentionally uses different units to prevent direct price comparison. Great tip!

I know exactly how much my bill is going to be before I pull into the checkout lane. If it’s too high, I start examining the things in my cart, chucking things out until I get down to the amount I budgeted.

Other than that I buy whatever is on sale at the supermarket…I’m not that picky and I’m flexible with my meal plans. I definitely have been getting more familiar with prices…I used to just think whatever was marked “sale” was a good price…not always true!

That’s a good bonus tip. TBH, we usually just use a plan credit card with a flat 1.5% cash back instead of hassling with remembering which ones give what % back… That’s something that we can look more into. Thanks for the tip!

Having the list based on what you want to fix for the week is a great way to keep your bills low. Our kids are the same way when my wife takes them shopping with her 🙂
