Let’s be honest, groceries are expensive! With kids back in school and some playing sports, you may find that your grocery bill is a tad bit higher. Also, inflation definitely doesn’t help!

Use these tips to help cut down on some of the costs of your groceries:

  • Plan your meals around items that are on sale.
  • Make a grocery list and stick to it.
  • Buy in bulk when possible.
  • Buy store brands instead of name brands.
  • Don’t shop when you’re hungry.
  • Take advantage of store loyalty programs.
  • Buy frozen produce to save on fresh produce costs.
  • Buy generic instead of name-brand items.
  • Buy dry goods like rice, pasta, and beans in bulk.
  • Cut down on processed and pre-packaged foods.
