Here are some easy ways to save on groceries.
Clip Coupons. Did you know that most grocery stores post their weekly coupons online? This site will help you find the coupons for most national chains. Also, when checking out, ask the cashier if there are any coupons for the items you bought.
Buy Generic. Many generic products are identical to the more expensive brand names - some are even made in the same factory! Haven't tried generic recently? Many store brands, such as Safeway Select, can taste better than the brand names.
Buy Whatever's On Sale. Stock up on your favorite brands when they're on sale. If all of your usual favorites are full-price, then buy whatever is on sale. It's good to try new things.
Double-Check the Price. Watch the register as items are scanned. Make sure you are not over-charged.
