it helps it you have shopped at the store before and know the regular store price to compare with the special price. Only then can you determine if a sale or feature is a bargain.
If the item or brand is one that you don’t normally use and are not familiar with, buy only a small quantity.
Buy large sizes, if they will be used. Be sure the special price on larger sizes means savings over the price of the small size.
Even if it is on special avoid selecting articles of inferior quality or that has a very short shelf life, unless you have immediate use of it.
Follow the meat specials, they can mean considerable savings. The best meat ad tells the exact name of the cut, the grade or quality and the price per pound.
An item on special may not always be the least expensive food to serve. For example, a T-bone steak which yields about 2 servings per pound, reduced to 89 cents, costs 45 cents per serving. On the other hand, round steak at 99 cents per pound, will cost only 25 cents per serving. Buy in season. Reduced prices because of the abundant supply in season are truly specials.
Avoid excessive impulse buying (it can be expensive), but be ready to snap up a bargain when you see it.
Take time to compare - before you start and while you shop. The pennies you save today will be your dollars tomorrow.
