The best way to save money on food

I have found that one of the best ways to save money on food is to make it a habit of shopping in the clearance section of a store before you shop any other parts of the store.  You sometimes find a lot and other times not as much.  But when you go there first you always give yourself the best chance of saving the most possible.

You never know what you will find so you need to be ready to buy things you maybe won’t use right away for the purpose of saving it for when you need it. I often buy my kids clothing a year in advance this way.  I will purchase them a shirt here or a pair of pants there.  This type of buying can also be used to get your food at a discount.

This includes fresh produce.  You can cut it and freeze it or switch around your meal plan to accommodate the food that needs to be used quickly.

    I loooove my Target clearance! It’s even better when I can use coupons on whatever they have on clearance. I’m not cheap! I’m FRUGAL! 🙂

  2. The best way I’ve found to save AND get the best quality for the money is going back to basics and learn to cook, bake, garden, can, freeze, manage a large freezer and pantry and dehydrate. Forget pre packaged foods. I shop my freezer and pantry first. I recently left a pretty high paying job and it has helped soooo much knowing how to prep food myself. Food is a big slice of the average family budget. Food costs are only going to get more expensive and big corporations will continue to cut quality to increase their bottom lines.
