Tips to grocery shop effectively:
- Know what you have in your pantry / fridge / freezer;
- Meal plan;
- Prepare a grocery list and split into into meat, vegetables, pantry;
- If you always shop and the same supermarket and know the aisles, split your shopping list according to the supermarket isles so you don’t forget anything;
- Stick to the grocery list (limit yourself if buying things on the grocery list);
- Shop offers – explore other brands that might be less expensive;
- If supermarket has an item on offer that you use stock on it even if not on grocery list;
- Don’t buy offers just for the sake of it;
- When buying snacks, hide some of them otherwise kids will eat them all.
