GROCERY SHOPPING HACKS: Tips & Tricks I Use To Stick My Grocery Budget | Clever Girl Finance

[@emusic96785]

Taking inventory of everything in my shopping cart before I check out, helps me to re-evaluate the real need for each item.

That’s why I send my husband shopping - I’m the one that consistently creates a list, leaves it at home and comes back with twice as much as I need. My husband follows the list to the tee and always comes back with the perfect amount!!!!

Extremely helpful Bola!! I'm sure to all...and...especially for parents with families to feed. A written grocery list is most helpful for me and keeps me aligned for the most part. I've learned that I do not prefer lists stored in my phone, especially in the era of COVID-19 and having to repeatedly touch my phone, unlock it to identify things on the list, etc. all while in the grocery store. Your content is so appreciated!🙌🏿🤗

LOL I'm also the fool that pushes her basket a the supermarket! Since I only buy food for myself, I only use baskets so that I don't get carried away,. But before I go to the supermarket I take a look at what I already have in my refrigerator and pantry so that I don't buy items that I already back at home. Since I shop at the same supermarket every week, I make mental note of where my items are, so that I'm not walking up and down the aisles and get tempted to buy things that I don't need. I also try to stick to shopping in the store's perimeter because where the foods I need are and it's usually where the healthy foods are.

I focus on the quality of food I'm eating, and prep everything once a week. The goal is healthy quick meals throughout the week from frig/freezer to plate in 10-15 minutes. I don't plan meals before I shop. So often the store has run out, and that is frustrating. I work with my budget and what's available to purchase, then plan meals and do 1 big food prep session and I'm set for the week. I have most of my groceries delivered now. I don't worry about not getting perfect fruit/veg through online shopping. It is all getting prepped right away anyway once it's delivered.

Hi Bola.....great tips.♥️ I love to walk the isles also but I do it quickly just in case I forgot to put an item on my list. I practice/tryed most of what you said. One other tip I use is that if I don't want to spend over my budget I walk with my cash only just the amount that can cover the item/items especially if I'm only going to pick up something specific.

I like the tip of not taking a basket or trolley in the grocery shop if you want to buy few items

[@c.l.b1667]

I also do the tricks you mentioned when grocery shopping. Taking no carts, what I can't anymore I leave.. I don't use big carts I hate them take up alot of space in the store. I walk sometimes with a calculator to manage my budget or I make a estimate. I GOT a lil careless with this because I felt whatever I buy it is what I need so I don't worry much. Now that I started a saving challenge I am aware again.

[@Clauds71]

So smart 👍😀, my shopping list never fails me 😊

[@SincerelyDiane]

I always have a list that I strictly stick to. I also plan my meals before making the list. I have been buying groceries online more now due to the pandemic.

[@THEMONEALS]

Don't go to the store hungry 🤣

[@DiamondNestEgg]

Amen! That’s the worse!

[@Clevergirlfinance]

[@delle3955]

Great reminders! I watched this before I hopped out for my Sunday target 🎯 run!

Yay thanks for tuning in!

So I’ve loved ordering groceries online since 2012. Why? Because I start “shopping” sometimes 2 weeks in advance and I stay editing that cart and I know what the exact amount is before I checkout. I price compare and everything in case I can grab a couple of things from my corner store or Target cheaper

[@elishalawrence9809]

I like to eat before I go grocery shopping this way you don’t do mindless shopping

[@margaretwilkie5406]

Good list.☺💝

Hi your forex video posted back in 2018 has a link to an academy. The link's not working. Why not?

Buy in bulk when food items are on sale.
