Never shop before making a detailed menu for the week.
Use coupons whenever possible.
Cook with seasonal produce.
Use the generic brands for cleansers, shampoos and detergents instead of brand-name products.
Never buy something just because it’s on sale unless you use that item regularly. You aren’t saving if you got a great deal on something that will just sit in your pantry.
Whenever possible, make your own instead of buying convenience foods.
