5 Ways to Save Money at the Grocery Store
Tuesday, January 20, 2009
When we walk into the grocery store these days we cannot help but notice how expensive everything has become. I was looking at cheese the other day and was flabbergasted at the price. I just passed it by.National nutrition experts from Nationwide Children's Hospital have come together to help us save some money at the grocery store with some helpful tips.
-- Don't buy organic if you don't have to.
-- Don't buy designer fruits like pomegranates and acai fruit. Blueberries and plums are cheaper and have the same nutritional content.
-- Avoid buying pre-packaged foods. Why buy bagged lettuce when it's cheaper to buy a head of lettuce?
-- Don't assume fresh is always best. Frozen fruits and vegetables are cheaper and have the same nutritional value.
-- Buy in bulk. The experts suggest buying large amounts of fruits during the summer when they're cheaper and freezing them to ear all year long.
