Money Saving Grocery Shopping Tips

Everything is getting more expensive today. From gas to groceries, our hard-earned dollars are challenged to stretch further. Now, we may be able to ride a bicycle around town if we can’t put gas in our cars. But, we have to eat. There’s no getting around that. So, we have to find ways to spend less on groceries while still getting the things that we need to feed ourselves and our families. Here are six money saving tips to try the next time you go grocery shopping.

Clip coupons and Online Printables . They put those in the newspaper for a reason. If there are new items you want to try, use a coupon to get it at a discount. If you like it, you have saved some money. On the other hand, if you don’t take a liking to it, you didn’t pay full price. For me, coupons save an average of ten or more dollars per visit. That’s money in my pocket that I can put towards gas for the car.

Buy more staples than prepared foods. It is easier to buy a box of macaroni and cheese, but is it more economical? A large box of macaroni and a block of cheese will make more servings for your family than one box of prepared macaroni and cheese. The next time you go shopping and pick up a box or bag of an already prepared item, ask yourself if you can make that at home for less. If you can, then put that item back in favor of less expensive staples.

Buy in bulk. Consider the food items that you use most often. Cereals, meats, vegetables, condiments, juices, and paper products can be bought in bulk usually at a lower price at food warehouses like Costco, BJ’s, and Wal-Mart. If you have a coupon, you’ll save even more money.

Don’t shop when you are hungry. This is a definite no-no. Shopping on an empty stomach means that you will pick up more things than you need. You are more likely to pick up that bag of chocolate chip cookies or that box of donuts when the growling gets underway.

Take a grocery list with you. This is another protection against picking up things that are too costly. Check your cabinets and the fridge to see what you need and write them down. Remember, the goal is to stick to the list as much as possible.

Shop at the same stores. This is more of a frustration reliever. In a new store, you spend most of your time looking for things and walking up and down every aisle, which oftentimes leads to forgetting an item or two. Going to the same store each time makes you more familiar with the prices so you can estimate your bill as you write your grocery list.

Rising prices don’t have to mean a lean dinner table. There are ways to make your food dollar go further and if you take the time to implement the ideas listed above as well as others of your own, you’ll see savings each and every time you shop.

Down Home Grilled Hamburgers

1/2 c sour cream

3 green onions -- chopped with tops

3 TB bread crumbs

1/2 ts Worcestershire sauce

1/2 ts lemon pepper

1 lb lean ground beef

4 hamburger buns ,shredded lettuce

1 tomato -- 4 slices/hamburger

1 yellow onion -- 4slices/hamburger

2 ts mustard

1 TB mayonnaise

1 TB catsup

1. Prepare white or yellow sweet onion by slicing in thick slices,

place in plastic bag or glass jar with ice water, seal and

refrigerate until ready to use. This makes the onions very crisp and

juicy.

2. Slice a vine-ripened tomato into thick slices. Mix sour cream,

chopped green onions, bread crumbs, Worcestershire sauce and lemon

pepper seasoning. Mix this in with the ground meat until combined

well. Shape into 4 patties.

3. Cooking the hamburger patties: GRILL: Place meat on grill over hot

coals and cook to desired doneness, turning only once or twice.

BROIL: Place meat in broiler pan; broil to desired doneness.

MICROWAVE: Place meat in a microwave-safe dish and cover loosely with

plastic wrap (made for microwave purposes); vent one edge slightly.

Microwave on highest power for 3 minutes. Turn patties over and cook

3 minutes longer or until desired doneness. Rotate the dish 1/4 turn

every 1-2 minutes. Drain well.

4. Mix the mayonnaise, mustard and catsup. Blend well.

5. To serve, divide the catsup mixture evenly on the warmed hamburger buns, top with a meat patty, tomato slice, onion slice and shredded lettuce. Also good with alfalfa or radish sprouts.
