Do you have a tried and true tip that always saves you money when you shop?? Share it here!!!

First and Foremost...... COUPONS!!! don't leave home without 'em!! Learn how to use them properly. Use them with sales and combine store coupons with manufacter coupons whenever possible.

There are always UNADVERTISED sales going on......you just have to walk each aisle to find them.

Shop the after holiday clearance for items that can be used for other reasons/seasons......for example.........red and green wrapped candy (think Christmas), can be separated and red ones used for Valentines Day and the green ones for St. Patrick's day. Candy has a long shelf life and could even be used for Easter baskets, hand it out for Halloween, etc

Shop off brands! They are a ton cheaper and usually taste just as good (or better)

Shop at home first (Take inventory of what you have and make your meal plan from that) This way you only get whats necessary for the following week

Stock up on good deals. Budget $20 for stock-ups, and when you see a great deal, buy all you can for that price.

Only use cash. Walk in the store with the amount you want to spend, no more. If you run out before your list does, you find all sorts of ways to cut corners and get creative.

Don't take kids or husbands with you!! They're the easiest way to add unnecessary cost!
