Other than cards and coupons, I found a great way for me to save time & money at the market.
I shop online first. I sit down with my recipies and put into an online cart everything I need. You can see all sales and even shop by catagory and cheapest items. (Vons.com). HOWEVER, I do not have them delivered. I print off the sheet and take it with me as my shopping list. It has everything I need on it:
Item
Price of each item
Most important: Total cost
I like this method because I am not at the store for too long and I have no surprises at the checkout counter. I hate it when it looks like I only have $40 worth of groceries and the total is actually close to $120!
Might not work for all, but I thought that I would share what works for us!
