One great way to save money on food is by the good old fashioned art of coupon clipping. There are have been people in the news that have saved hundreds of dollars just by using coupons. There is an art to the coupons, but once you have mastered it, the super market is your oyster.
Most supermarkets have a policy of doubling customer coupons. Most stores only double coupons up to one dollar. But that is still ok. The best way to get the most of the coupons is to buy things that are on sale already and then use the double coupon to buy it. Then you will have extra savings. Before you go shopping get a copy of the store’s sale circular and see what is on sale. You can try going onto their website too, they may have the sales posted there too.
Plan your list carefully, write down or circle the items you want and match it up the coupon that you have, that way you can make sure you are getting the right product and the right size. Coupons are very specific on the terms of the coupon.
Some times if you do go online, they may offer additional discounts by printing out a coupon from the computer. So you can use that as well as the discounted sale price and the fact the coupon you have will be double. If you plan the right way, you can end up paying mere dollars for about a hundred dollars in groceries.
