Our Money-Saving Grocery Shopping Rules

I started writing some about my grocery shopping process back in my practical meal planning blogpost. I ended up writing way too much to include there, so I decided to dedicate a whole blogpost to this topic. Apparently, I have a lot to say! (No surprise there.) Today, I’m sharing my money-saving grocery shopping “rules”:

  • Make a list of what you need (and stick to it)!
  • Grocery shop (only!) once per week.
  • Buy the food you need for (only!) one week.
  • Only stock up on pantry staples when they’re on sale.
  • Think about how much your ingredients cost.
  • Sometimes, your time is more important than your money.

Now that you have the basics, keep reading to hear a little more about each rule and why it helps us save money grocery shopping!
