➊ Plan your meals in advance.
➋ Check your pantry & fridge and create a list based on food items you need.
Tip: Don't go to the grocery store hungry! You will most likely buy food you do not need.
➌ Check store ads for deals and specials.
➍ Consider buying store brands to save money. The quality will be the same.
➎ Consider the cost of convenience.
Tip: Pre-cut veggies, pre-cooked meals (rotisserie chicken and hard boiled eggs) help reduce meal prep time while still making healthy eating choices.
➏ Shop the perimeter of the store to help you avoid processed foods.
