Ways to Save on Your Grocery Bill
If the word dinner makes you picture a big meal with meat, two steaming sides of fresh veggies from the farmers market, a warm bread, and a dessert—chill out and give yourself a break. This isn’t 1952, and supper doesn’t have to be a big feast. Your family will survive on BLTs, beans, omelets or a big salad a few times a week.
Don’t be afraid to serve simple meals or have breakfast for dinner to make your groceries stretch.
Just a little rethinking of the last meal of the day can shrink your grocery budget.
​
Are generic brands really as good as the name brands?
Consumer Reports says most store brands measure up to the name brands in taste and quality—and they’re usually 20–25% lower in price too!
​
Walk into the grocery store with a full stomach, and you might be shocked by how much lower your grocery bill is!
