10 Ways to Save Money on Groceries Without Coupons

Digested from Kiplinger
Without being an "extreme couponer", you can keep costs under control without coupons. Just follow these ten tips.

1) Choose the Right Store - shop at stores that have the lowest prices on the things you buy.

2) Stock Up When Items You Regularly Buy Go On Sale - If the item has a long shelf life (or if you have room to freeze it), buy several and score big savings.

3) Find Alternatives to Expensive Items - consider lower-cost alternatives for those items to rack up real savings on future shopping trips.

4) Skip Prepared and Convenience Foods - Don’t pay extra for the grocery store to do your kitchen chores for you.

5) Check Unit Prices - This price typically shows how much you're paying per ounce and can point you to the better deal.

6) Look Up … or Down - Name-brand items, which tend to be more expensive, usually are placed at eye level.

7) Take Advantage of Holiday Sales - Some items are at their lowest prices of the year around certain holidays.

8) Haggle - Don’t be afraid to ask for a discount on food items that are near their “sell by” date.

7) Buy Certain Items in Bulk - You can pay a lot less for laundry detergent, batteries, rice and pasta in bulk if you have room to store it.

10) Don't Buy Personal-Care Products at the Grocery - you're better off buying shampoo, toothpaste, cotton balls and other personal-care products at a dollar store.
