• How to reduce the cost of food in times without compromising

    October 26th, 2008

    If you have not thought about it, I will share my personal experience which shows that you can spend six times more money in the supermarket without notice obvious difference in purchases. It sounds really strange, but true. Here are some basic rules:

    Select the correct supermarket
    Regal magazine published value of the purchase of the same shopping cart in different supermarkets of the big chains – in my very valuable data market in Bulgaria.

    Maybe you’ve heard about so-called diskauntari, now in Bulgaria are Kaufland and T Market, is expected soon in the future to step in the market and Lidl and Aldi. In my opinion, these stores offer actually lower prices and really worth shopping there.

    I try and shopping from Metro, but for me this is not a good option because the cuts are too large for dvuchlenno and household products are often perishable, and very complicated arrangements for shopping is an obstacle to people. However, shopping holidays thereafter, while Ty greater quantities worth. Must know that Metro has very costly for producers and traders conditions, typically determining the lowest prices that can be found on the market but this is good for the customer.

    When you come into the supermarket, check out the brochure with current promotions. Usually things that are in my shopping on promotion at the moment, so buy the product at a lower price. The opposite, however, does not recommend – to make your shopping according to a promotional brochure or include something just because it’s a good price. I was so unnecessary oversupply of products are cheap because without them I can use later.

    Large supermarkets offer own brand products at a lower price. Ordinary these products are really a very good quality – they are manufactured by leaders in the industry, but brendirani own brand of supermarket. So you get the same quality for less money.

    Buy vegetables from stock
    Every city has one or more wholesale markets for food wholesale. There usually is required for a minimum quantity or price has purchasing wholesale and retail. In my opinion, this is a good way to save money because donated retail price is often lower than that in the corner market. On the receiving products which are typically more fresh than those of the market (bought a few days from the same place). And if shopping for the week, you very quietly asking what are the requirements for bulk purchases.

    Shop for the week
    My experience indicates that if shopping ma months can not adhere to long-term menu, which I have compiled or consume anything more comforting even the first week. Moreover, some things can not go shopping on a monthly basis – these are some sausages, milk, eggs and other products malotrayni. On the other hand, if the shop every day to unwind and spend more than necessary. Therefore, for myself I decided that weekly shopping is optimal option for a diverse, balanced and well-planned menu.

    Shopping list
    General rule, which in itself gives great results. Shopping list means that the house of peace (and not hungry while we walk along a long glass cases filled with tempting variety) we’ve reviewed inventories, we drew up the menu and specify exactly what we are and what we need, we all obikolili premises and Our inventory made of sanitary and hygienic facilities and all the little things necessary for a household.

    Make an inventory of stock
    Happened to you is to buy something at home to find that you have just opened a package of the same? Me. So trying to track inventory of all major products and consumables to buy, if necessary, rather than reinsurance. Aesthetic and easy way is to buy a nice big jars for flour, sugar, salt, beans, lentils, rice, coffee and pasta example and hold them on the board or other prominent place. Thus creating an atmosphere in the kitchen and give you an idea what should be bought soon.

    Cook
    Golden rule with unparalleled results. If you have not or could not you had to cook will combine useful …. It is for each is different. For me personally it is nice game, other debt is necessarily in every case is a good way to replace a home semi-prepared foods, learning valuable household skill and save money. Oh, yes, and also – to ankles more often.

    Make a weekly menu
    Follow your preferences and envisage at least one day a favorite dish. That should monitor your spending does not mean to give up small pleasures. Sign vsichkineobhodimi products made up menu, remove their stocks and thus make the list for weekly shopping.

    Something for nothing
    If at the end of the week there is not enough products for the food, not bolt to the store and see what stocks you have to evaluate whether you izmaystorite something from them. One of the most delicious things I eat are made gyuvecheta principle whatever is left in the refrigerator.

    Lunch at work
    Take something made from home – a sandwich or something cooked portion.
    Eat light and healthy – I usually eat myusli and yogurt or tomato and cheese bought from nearby shops. Lunch I rarely exceeding two leva.
    And something interesting – See what families consume a week worldwide and how much it cost them.
