Question:
How do I save on shopping and where is the best place to shop?
— Lavoyn Anger
Answer:
I think that the best way to save on shopping is to make yourself a list. Um, so before going shopping, always have, uh, kind of planned out what you're going to eat for the week. Um, I do it on the notes app, basically on my phone. Um, and I plan with my wife what we're going to have for our meals, and then I put that over and equate that to my shopping list at the same time. That way I'm not overspending, um, on things that just look good at the moment. Um, I know exactly what I need. Um, it gives you an opportunity to search for coupons if you do coupons as well. Um, but yeah, where's the best place to shop is completely dependent upon where you live. Um, and because I don't know that it's a little hard to determine, um, but, you know, um, I find myself going to multiple stores to be able to get what I need, um, you know, for recipes. Uh, not every week, but a lot of weeks I'll find myself going to at least two stores to be able to get the best available and the best price on things at the same time.
