I have already given a number of tips for saving money at the store. Some will be repeats. I’m sorry. They are for those who haven’t looked back into my archive. Others are ones that I have been told or found. So, here are more tips for saving money at the store.

Tip: Before you shop, clip coupons and get others online. (this works for everything, not just food) There are several sites that give coupons for name brand items, some free. Be sure you need the item you have a coupon for. It’s not going to save you money if you find that this is the right time to splurge on something you have wanted for a long time.

Tip: Always try to buy generic or store brand. Not every time, but most of the time, the store brand or the generic are exactly the same as the name brand and equally good. I have a hard time tasting the difference on most of the items we buy that way.

Tip: Since this is still summer time and when fall approaches, there are places and stands that sell fresh produce. Buy in bulk, chop and freeze or can. These things will always be available to you then. Green beans, corn, mushrooms, onions and tomatoes are especially good to fix that way. Put them in a ziplock baggie in amounts that you use regularly. Then when you decide on soup or casseroles, half the work is already done.

Tip: Buy fresh herbs at sale prices. Fresh herbs can last longer if you put them in a jar or other container in some water with stems still on. Put them into the fridge. It keeps them fresh a lot longer. If they start to wilt..chop and freeze.

There will be more tips from the Window Shopper soon. Happy Shopping!!!

    This makes a lot of sense. I should try it on my next grocery shopping.

      It does make sense. When my printer is working…it isn’t right now :(…I like to print out coupons for all sorts of things that are either free or low cost. It saves a bundle of money.
