Few Ways to Save on Food Delivery and Groceries

One thing noone ever told me is how expensive gorceries are - like adulting is hard. Here is few tips on how to save on groceries

Collect points

Many places have a loyalty programs - collect points based on purchases and than redeem them for cashback on groceries. I use the PC points app and collect points and redeem them on those big shops so it lessens the blow. 

Watch for sales and be on the lookout for coupons

Even during a pandemic, grocery store circulars still arrive in the mail and grace stands by the store entrance. So, don’t forget to scan store ads for coupons and sale items, especially on frozen and canned foods, meats and other items that you can freeze or stock in the pantry.You can find great one-time deals on food delivery by performing an online search for food delivery coupons. While you’re at it, make sure you look inside envelopes of coupons you get in the mail and coupon inserts thrown in with grocery store circulars.

Shop with meals in mind

We’ve all come home with four bags of groceries and not even one combination of ingredients that we can whip up for dinner. It’s easy to avoid that scenario, however, when you factor meal planning into the grocery list.

For example, sit down and write few things you wanna make - than add the ingredients you will need to make those

Make a list

Don’t run to the grocery store to pick up a few items only to leave with an overflowing shopping cart. Even if you’re planning to stockpile groceries, going in “open to anything” will run up a huge bill fast. It’s just too easy to grab jars of pricey olives, nuts, dips, snacks and meats when you have no plan.

To avoid willy-nilly shopping and the gargantuan grocery bill that comes with not having a strategy, create a list before shopping. Check out what you already have on hand in the refrigerator, freezer and pantry and plan meals around ingredients you already have on hand.
