Have you noticed your grocery bill increasing lately? Who doesn't like to save money when they can?

Become a smart shopper with these tips:

❏ Avoid grocery shopping when I am tired. (When you are tired, you may be more likely to purchase convenience items and make poor food choices.)

❏ Shop alone* and/or go only once a week.

❏ Have a snack before going grocery shopping to prevent impulse buys.

❏ Compare the unit prices for the same product from different brands to determine the best size and brand for the money. (Unit prices are the small labels on the front edge of the shelves in the grocery store.)

❏ Avoid buying nonfood items at the grocery store. Unless they’re on sale, the prices of soaps, shampoos and paper products can be inflated.

❏ Stay alert for checkout counter mistakes. Look carefully at your receipt to make sure you get the sale price on sale items. Check your change, too!
