It’s no secret that inflation is on the rise, and with it comes higher prices on everyday goods, including groceries. As the cost of living continues to climb, many people are left wondering how they can save money on their grocery bills in the midst of high inflation.
While it may seem daunting, there are still ways to save money on groceries even during times of high inflation. By being strategic and mindful of your spending, you can still stretch your dollar and make your grocery budget work for you. Here are some tips to help you save money on groceries during high inflation.
1. Budget and plan: One of the most important steps in saving money on groceries is to create a budget and stick to it. Before heading to the store, take some time to plan out your meals for the week and make a list of the items you need. This will help you avoid unnecessary purchases and stay within your budget.
2. Use coupons and discounts: Look for coupons and take advantage of weekly sales and discounts offered by your local grocery store. Many stores offer loyalty programs that allow you to accumulate points or receive discounts on certain items. Additionally, consider using cashback apps or websites that offer rebates on grocery purchases.
3. Buy in bulk: Purchasing items in bulk can often save you money in the long run. Look for staples like rice, pasta, canned goods, and non-perishable items that have a long shelf life. Just be sure to only buy items in bulk that you know you will use before they expire.
4. Shop smart: Be mindful of where you shop for groceries. Consider visiting discount grocery stores or purchasing generic or store brand items instead of name brands. Keep an eye out for sales or clearance items, but be cautious not to purchase items you don’t need just because they are on sale.
5. Meal prep and cook at home: Eating out at restaurants or ordering takeout can quickly add up. By preparing your meals at home and bringing your own lunch to work, you can save a significant amount of money on food expenses. Additionally, cooking in batches and freezing leftovers can help you stretch your grocery budget further.
6. Grow your own food: If possible, consider growing your own fruits, vegetables, and herbs at home. This can be a cost-effective way to supplement your grocery shopping and ensure that you have access to fresh produce without breaking the bank.
In times of high inflation, saving money on groceries may seem challenging, but it is still possible with some careful planning and mindful spending. By budgeting, using coupons, buying in bulk, shopping smart, meal prepping, and growing your own food, you can make your grocery budget go further and save money despite rising prices. With a little creativity and resourcefulness, you can still keep your grocery spending in check even during times of economic uncertainty.
Just shoplift fuck the CEO’s
The fact that all the girls shut down whenever religion was brought up really says alot…
Curbside pick up equals a mark up in products. Read the fine print at your grocery stores, target and Walmart. Bad idea if you are broke
How the fuck can you save up money on 7.25/h?
Thank you.
No you need to stop using men
Do walmart pickup if you want to. Lol. You will regret it instantly.
You are so cool. Thanks for all your very useful tips
I'll do all of this except using the data-harvesting/tracking apps. I'd rather find other methods to save money.
Go to local fruit and veggies stand. It’s always cheaper than the supermarket!
Don’t trust the price per Oz stickers. Do the math, I’ve found many that lie, I have to assume to con you into the higher per unit priced product.
When shopping just get what is on the list. You can still look around for a bargain – Manager's in Store Specials can be good.
Unfortunately, "shrinkflation" is real.
I would use this to eliminate the checkout process. I've put down and walked out of Walmart 3 times and Kroger twice now due to lack of open registers or lack of cash back availability of open registers where they expect me to wait for The One that works.
ALDI’s
If you are a Westerner go and shop in the Asian super market, if you have access to it that is, ots much cheaper. And if you Asian, go and give your local street vendors a try, it worth it.
#1 rule: Have a cash budget and stick to it.
#2 rule: Eat simply, keep ingredients basic and few. Use meat sparingly.
My favorite way: use the app "too good to go" the night before I do my weekly shopping trip. With this, I already have a pretty good deal on veggies and fruit (and whatever else is in my package). I just need to plan my meals around those items. Ideal for bigger families too, as these items usually need to be used up fast 🙂
I work at Sprouts, shop sales, and have had Ibotta for several years now!
Lmao I always do this for products always comparing the ounces cause it's right there… U gotta see what gives u more bang for ur buck… U save more when u buy bigger products cause u get more per ounce than u would on smaller items
Walmart no longer offers curbside for free if your order is below a certain amount. They add on a 6.99 fee even for Walmart plus members.
I disagree with the curbside If you are getting any produce. You need to be able to check the quality of the vegetables that you were purchasing. I have known many people that have gotten nearly rotten fruit and vegetables. When it's selected by one of the staff of the store. They aren't going to sell those items to savvy customers so why not pound it off on the the customers that aren't looking at their vegetables
4. If the company has an app which gives you points, use it religiously! The tesco clubcard allows you to get money off fuel, holidays, your phone bill and days out as well as your groceries.
I absolutely appreciate and admire you for sharing your awesomeness with me, thanks alot!
ah
Unit price was something I learned as a kid and taught my friends in college. They were baffled when I explained that the "more expensive" tissues were actually the better deal because you got 50% more product for a difference of about ten cents.
I bought a? Ivonna? I wanna? A link sure would be helpful?
Right on, thank you. Aloha!
The eggs are almost 8 dollars, and they are not even organic #nyc lol
Online prices r higher than in store.
Also, online stores don’t list the least expensive brands, but will only have their brand and higher end as the online option
Last tip in video might be tough. Not bad tip but just saying. Where I live some supermarkets don't place their prices on the shelf. Walked into one recently and many of the shelves had little to no pricing on products. At least they still can check it out at the cashier though. But that's just be a hassle for people. Went when it wasn't crunch time to shop. So can you imagine if it was.
Go to local food pantries, you don’t get everything that you use but get some and give rest to friends. If you’re given the choice to pick what you want it’s better. Then shop for fruits and vegetables or other groceries you didn’t get. Caching! $$$
Thanks
They banned my wife and took her money and won't reply back to her.
Couple of other hints:
1. Learn about food quality because buying the cheapest by unit price without respect for quality will eventually affect your health adversely which will be extremely expensive.
2. Invest in a small chest freezer so when high quality items are dicounted you can buy more and freeze for later.
One thing with using the grocery app is that the prices are MUCH more expensive than the actual trip to the store….
Be careful with ibotta, to me it seemed they only gave cash back on items I would never buy in the first place.
I'm currently restructuring my budget and looking for more ways to make and save with the things I already do. I just activated cash back with my bank and now I'm considering the Ibotta app. Heard a lot about it but I've been a bit skeptical.
Or just get really in gardening and grow most of your own food
Girl i love your advice but I'm Mexican American and most of the places my family gets their groceries at are Hispanic stores aka food city. I asked once at a local Hispanic grocery shop once the managers had never heard of these apps. But i appreciate it, of you really want to help us save money please stop and think about this. To be able to pick out the good fruit and veggies we have to be the ones that choose them. Right now here in Az its winner time meaning its posole season, caldo, and tamales season. As a first generation Mexican American in the USA, i can't do online shopping for most things because places like Walmart or target as general examples may not have certain ingredients on their website, which means i have to get out of my car and actually ask a human being. Plus with family history of diabetes and other health concerns to me walking around the store means exercise because not very one has money to pay for a gym membership. Most middle class works don't have time for workouts before or after work for various reasons. I would love to use these apps but most of the deals they have isn't something i need or want.
Awesome!!
