I remember once there were many packages of some fruit and the store cold not get rid of it. Each package cost £1. The managers did the trick of repacking the fruit into half size containers and reducing the prize half (so it was sold for exactly the same price per kg). Then they put a big sign with ONLY 50p a package and suddenly customers got into hysterical fight to get as many packages as possible. The managers were watching nearby, grinning. We got rid of all the fruit which was nearly out of date.

My local grocery store will do this too. They will "mark down" meat or packaged cooler items but leave the price nearly the same as the regular price - sadly, people fall for that so often. My favorite is when they run a sale on say chicken legs and the day after the sale ends they "mark down" the ones that didn't sell based on the regular price - they're always MORE expensive for that clearance price than they were on the sale price!

If someone reaches in life the truly lowest of "high rank" positions as a manager of a supermarket, of course, they have to belittle people under them to feel bigger. Do not worry about that. It is a dirty industry (liquidating farmers and small shops) build on dirt (the "managers" who employ workers on (lower than) minimum wages bullying them into high-class performance. Noone else than a bad brand supermarket would keep such managers who do not manage their instruments (the shop assistants) well any more than one would hire a craftsman who doesn´t keep their instruments in peak condition or a cleaner who doesn´t keep clean. It´s all trash.

mjname Same here, frequently I'll start my visit to the supermarket with a brief tour of most aisles and sections just to see what's on sale, because not everthing is in the weekly flyers or listed online. With technology these days you can browse new recipes or make a meal plan based on the best value and your preferences, all right in the store as you shop. On a side note I also noticed that at my local 24-hour supermarket, perishable items are marked down by 50% on the "best before" date between 8-9am, so I'll try to go during that time. Also on certain weekdays students and seniors can get 10% off their total bill. This all might sound like a lot, but its a relatively small effort when compared to the long term savings over time, especially if you have financial goals you are working hard on to achieve, or if you're on a fixed income or budget.

I live in New Zealand and when I went to England to see my sister, her English husband and my nephew. I was overwhelmed with all the other items that are available at a supermarket. I spent close to three hours in a supermarket when I went shopping for the first time. I would be hopeless because I'd spend hours at the supermarket. I tend to look to see what is one special online mailer so that more often than not I buy items on special. I say specials but we don't have massive specials for example yesterday the sweets I like were on special for NZ$2:09, the normal price is $2:29. I generally know how many times I eat an item in a month and when they come on special I'll buy enough to cover a month. I meal plan and shop to a list but of course sometimes I add a few items. I've watched videos about shoppers in the USA collecting and using coupons to get massive discounts and sometimes it means they get everything for free. It's interesting to learn about food in general works in other countries .

Hangar, yeah. He's been to the right place alright. The frustrating part is that they're not even catered to aeroplanes. I flew down the supermarket for the first time recently, but there were so many overhead signs hanging from the rafters that I was forced to find somewhere to land - an emergency landing. I looked like a right muppet traipsing around the aisles in full pilot outfit without my plane to accompany me. I left it on the power aisle runway and when I got back to it there was a bunch of kids climbing all over it and swinging from the propellers. I couldn't take off again as there wasn't enough space for an adequate run-up so I had to ride it out of their warehouse bay doors and drive it home like a car or a boat on wheels. Not happy!

Also, I want the staff to be polite and to know what they're doing. If staff are rude or off-hand, I just go to a different supermarket.

I saw this happen in real time to me. I like hearts of palm so I started purchasing them 3-4 jars at a time every couple of weeks. Those jars originally were on the very top shelf, almost out of site unless you knew to look. In a few months they were moved down a shelf, and then another right at my eye level. Then another brand appears, and now there is a less expensive store brand in a can right at my shopping level and that's the one I purchase now 3-4 cans at a time every time I shop there. I had never noticed this sort of thing before and here was an example I could see happen in real time.

I always do an inventory for my shop to see what I still have then do a meal and snack planner for the week ahead and base my list on this. Only tips I have is set a budget, meal plan, check your cupboards freezer fridge etc to plan ahead, take a list and use a calculator. BOGOF is great for non perishable items ie cleaning products tins toilet rolls etc ONLY if you already need or use the items. Still calculate though I did this a lot when my daughter was in nappies adding the amount of nappies then dividing it by the price they are on sale for to get the individual nappy price and most of the time it was cheaper to buy smaller/normal packs not on deal rather than the box advertised as money off. Supermarkets assume everyone is in a rush or to thick to work out it’s not a good deal. I shop mainly at Aldi prices are lowest in my area quality is good also they pay staff well. The big supermarkets take in billions and their staff are on minimum wage zero hour contracts always looking miserable so the profits obviously don’t trickle down.

I may not buy the cheapest items on the shelf, but I still get good value for money. I have a running list in my head of what the lowest sale price is on most of the items we buy on a regular basis. I would really think twice before buying anything other than produce I can't freeze when it's cheap when it's not on sale or at the lowest price point in town if it's not something I can store easily. I buy beef and lamb from a butcher by the animal - far far cheaper, locally sourced, and much more flavorful. I buy produce from the farmer's market in the summer, prep it and freeze it. I also make my own jam so I know exactly what's in it. I stick to the brands that have the best flavor & buy those consistently. I won't get something else that I might end up throwing away just because it's on "sale". What I do, however, is know approx. how frequently the items I buy go on sale. For example, right now it's lent so frozen battered fish are at the lowest price they will be all year. We will eat more battered fish this time of year because I know it's a good price for it. Yes, I could batter my own but it would be far more expensive as fresh and frozen fish from anywhere other than China is way overpriced in the Midwest USA. I also shop seasonally. It saves tons & tastes better + the turnover is higher on seasonal produce so it will generally be fresher. I will also go to 4 different stores each week just to get the best tasting, freshest, cheapest groceries. Additionally, I work for a major chain grocery/ general merchandise store that gives a once-a-year bonus of a 25% discount on a single purchase. I buy a year's worth of products that I cannot get on sale cheaper elsewhere - things like laundry soap, hand soap, toilet paper, paper toweling; and I use coupons on those items too. I am brand loyal but that doesn't mean I can't get the best deal possible on products that won't make me break out in hives because it's not a product I usually buy that my body tolerates. I also keep a running list of larger ticket items we're looking to purchase. I have waited an entire year before just so that I could use that discount to buy an office chair at a price lower than I could get it at any other time of the year. Same holds true for big ticket items in general - when my husband was looking to buy a sawzall, I spent a couple of months watching prices on the one he wanted until a really good sale came up - that's when we bought it. I also oftentimes buy something that others have recommended as a quality product. I also shop at stores with good returns policies. If I don't like it - I'm NOT keeping it. If it breaks before the returns period is up, you better believe I know where my receipt is so that I can bring it back and get my money back for it. I'm not talking about abusing the system here by using something and then returning it but rather if it's supposed to last 2 years & with normal use it only makes it one month - that's a manufacturing defect & I can get my money back. At the end of the day, it's not just about the price on the shelf - there are so many other factors to consider when looking at overall value for money.

Using cash is actually a terrible idea IMHO. If I use cash it's gone. If I use my credit card, go home and break down my shopping trip into categories, and track my spending every single month, I fare much better. Yes, I may spend a bit more - but it's ALWAYS on whole foods that I eat rather than buying cheap junk. When I had a cash budget for food, I ended up with high blood pressure etc. because cost was number one and health was at the bottom. My food budget is high because I eat healthy with good variety. I shop sales, freeze, can, stock up on sale items with long shelf life etc. It's so much easier to track where and how I spent my money if I use my card instead of cash.

Shopping in the USA can vary by area/state. Some places are so cheap like Central PA and Ohio compared to the NY area. I guess other states are also cheaper for food depending on how far they have to truck it in and is it on a main route. Food was more expensive in New England (northern) than the NY metro area because of lack of section and how far they had to truck it. I liked the supermarkets in the UK when I lived there.

Using a list isn't really frugal-smart. Then you miss periodic deals. So, if you wait until you run out of your soap, then you might not be able to get it at a sale price. You know you're going to buy it again, so get it at the discount price. Also, you don't know what's going to be the best deal until you get to the store. Get the best deals and that ends up being on the plate rather than planning for something specific. Note that Mr. Frugal didn't have a list, either.

It always works for me! And im trying to not go in big supermarkets so that it will not lead me in temptation to buy things i don't need! Plus when i want to buy cheese i always go to a traditional cheese store! When i want to buy meat i go to a fresh meat store and the same goes with fish and the same with spices!
