Homeland Shopping: Three Easy Tips to Save You Money on Grocery's

shopping,save money

Here is a look at my shopping trip today. I was able to go early in the morning after I took my son to preschool, and grabbed a few coupons, and wanted to get my total above $25 because I had a coupon from the Thunder Game (the $5/ $25 coupon is found inside the free booklet they pass out when you enter the Ford Center)  My plan is to make hamburgers tonight, so I needed to buy meat, buns and milk for sure. You want to know some of my tricks. I am going to share.

1.  Buy reduce sale meats. This can save you almost 1/2 off your meat purchase. Homeland grounds their meet fresh everyday, so most mornings there should be meat for sale. Mine I bought was $1.69 for 80/20.

 2. Milk and Dairy Reduced sale. My store marks their milk down on Sundays and Wednessdays. .99 or .50 for 1/2 gallon. Just to say milk in a very cold refridgerator will stay good for a few days after expiration date.

3. Use coupons on items you can get cheap or free when able. If you are not going to use the product, then donate to a food pantry or shelter! 

You want to know how much I spent on above items?
Under $10.
 ($9.63 to be exact!)
