Common mistakes most shoppers make.
1. They only buy their groceries when they need them.
2. They only buy one of each item on their shopping list.
3. They don't use manfuacturer coupons.
Did that sound familiar? If it does, then you are shopping on a "Needs Based" shopping method. The problem with this method of shopping is that you are subject to whatever the retail price might be at the time that you need it. I call this the "Gotta Have It" price. My goal is to show you a new method of shopping that is called the "Stock Up" shopping method. I can save you hundreds of dollars. Sign up today and I'll show you how!
Three Giant Secrets to getting the best prices on your groceries.
1. Only buy your groceries when they are on sale!
2. Pair those sale items with matching coupons!
3. Buy in multiples when your items are on sale!
Think about this for a moment...we pretty much buy the same groceries each month. Say your family only uses Crest Toothpaste. Should you wait until the tube is nearly empty before adding it to your list? If you want to get the lowest price, you would want to buy that toothpaste when it's on sale and there's a coupon to match it.
If you know that your family likes Best Foods Mayonnaise, wouldn't you rather buy it when it's on sale? I can pick up several jars for $0.99 around the picnic holidays, which by the way, usually lasts until the next picnic holiday. This way I won't have to spend $3.79 for one bottle when I need it.
If this makes sense, then why don't we all shop this way? You're probably thinking, that sounds good in theory, but it sure would take a lot of time to shop this way, no? I, for one, am a busy person. With my past experience with coupons, I would never have thought to wait until the item is on sale to use the coupon. The reason I couldn't wait for that to happen is because I usually would need the item, so I'll buy it now. I can just hear my family now, "Mom, we're out of toilet paper!" "Ok, honey, I'll pick some up when it goes on sale next week." I think I'd have a mutiny on my hands!
The old way of using coupons.
1) Leaf through the coupon packets in the Sunday paper.
2) Clip the coupons you think you may use.
3) Recycle or throw the rest away of the packets away.
Then what happens? If you're like me, I'd misplace the coupons, forget to take them to the store with me, or I'd let them expire. Then I'd get frustrated because I wasn't saving any money by using coupons! But not anymore!
