Look at your receipts for real
If you want to know more about your shopping pattern, a grocery receipt can reveal all that and more. Therefore, gather all of them and see where you spent the most. For example, if the 16-ounce container of Greek yogurt you bought during your last shopping trip turned out too big for you to finish, next time, buy a smaller one and spend less money as well.
Don’t avoid drugstores
Need more juice? Sometimes the best place to pick up a carton of juice is at the drugstore, said Teri Gault, author of “Shop Smart, Save More.” Juice could cost 30 cents to 50 cents less per gallon, she said. Although it might not sound like a big deal, being penny-wise could turn into big savings.
