[...] Shop ethnic grocery stores. When I did a cost-comparison between my crappy Albertson’s, Costco and the local “cultural” grocer (not sure “ethnic grocer” is really the right term?) I found that the latter was always the cheapest in produce. See my chart here. [...]

Great post! I need to be more careful with my money but I usually go to whatever grocery store is closest! I buy organic if the store has it but sometimes they don’t!

With a family of 9 money is always a consideration. We have limited choices here as far as grocery stores go, so I visit Sam’s and Kroger once a week. Sam’s for a lot of produce, all dairy, all breads, all cereals, etc. Kroger for the other stuff.

I use thecouponmom.com to help me find the best deals.

Thanks for this post!

Great research! Nice post.

My husband and I have two “no spend” days a week, where we don’t spend any money. At all. (Unless emergencies.) Also, I’m currently creating a meal planning binder to help plan out my groceries/meals.

I like hitting my local grocery store because things there might not be cheaper, but they’re usually better quality than the nationwide chains. For instance, I might spend 70 bucks on groceries for the week at the chain store and 25% of the perishibles will go bad. I might spend 90 bucks at the local organic-y market and 10% of the perishibles will go bad. I might get the organic sour cream for 3 bucks and it lasts a month, whereas the cheap kind is 1.50 and goes bad in a week or 2.

My biggest grocery tip is making a menu for the week, making a grocery list out of that, and sticking to it for the most part. Great post!

*sigh* you must come shopping with me.. i am so frivolous when it comes to groceries .. i definitely need to work on writing a list and sticking to it! oh, and avoiding the cereal aisle – that’s where i do major damage.
