Grocery Shopping

Grocery Shopping
Day 11

1.      The first thing I want you to start making a list before you go shopping that way you don’t buy unnecessary stuff. They call it impulse buying for a reason. Humans simply have a tough time resisting the temptation to purchase extras while shopping. Without a list you will buy items that you simply do not need. Even worse is when you forget to purchase the actual item you came to the store for in the first place. Getting all that you need in one trip can help avoid another unnecessary trip and temptation.

2.      The second thing I want you to do when you go shopping is to never go hungry. You will buy extra stuff that you do not need. It is about temptation again and you want to avoid impulse buying at all costs. The best time to go shopping is when you are in a hurry because it will help you buy less and keep your bill low. Just remember to not be in too big of a hurry because you will forget some of your items.

3.      The third thing I want you to try to do is buy in bulk. Whenever you see an amazing deal just buy it in bulk. This way you don’t have to spend more money on this item next time. Remember if you are buying in bulk to check expiration dates. It is useless to buy in bulk if the item expires before you can use it. So remember to do all these things and you will save quite a bit when you are shopping.

Clip coupons

Day 7

Clip coupons

Have you ever heard of those people that save hundreds at the grocery store? They are even making television shows about these people. It is a simple thing that every individual can do yet; people are too lazy to look for coupons to save money. There are websites that can help you find coupons like  http://www.groupon.com/ & coupon.com. You can also find coupons in magazines and believe it or not many companies send coupons in the mail. There is a huge opportunity to save a lot of money so don't miss Out!

 

I want you to start using coupons today. Start out by just using 5 coupons.

I want to give you a simple example of how using coupons can help save you money. If you get 5 coupons that save you 50 cents each. You will have just kept 2 dollars and 50 cents in your wallet or purse. If you shop twice a week and go to the store eight times a month that will be 20 Extra Dollars in your pocket! You don't have to go crazy about using them but it will help you save money. Remember just because something is on a coupon it doesn't mean that you have to buy it. There is no point of buying food that you will never use or deodorant that you won't use because you don't like the smell of it.
