Building Your Budget Meals: Tips for Saving Money at the Store
- Avoid waste! Make better use of your leftovers by learning how to store your ingredients properly. The less you throw away, the more use you'll make of your hard-earned cash.
Make a game plan. Be realistic about how many meals you’ll cook at home in a week and for how many people. This way, you can buy ingredients accordingly.
Try to plan your meals ahead so you know what ingredients you'll need to purchase. You don't have to plan everything out completely, but have the main ingredients in mind. You'll likely have a lot of standard things in your pantry and fridge already.
Keep a well-stocked pantry. This is the most sure-fire way to resist the urge to go out or order in just because you don't know what to make. With a few basics, you can usually pull together a tasty and healthier meal than what you'd get from a restaurant in the same amount of time, and for less money.
Always replenish! Keep a running shopping list of things you need as soon as you run out. Besides basics like olive oil and flour, make sure to keep things like canned beans, pasta and canned tuna on hand so you can quickly create a delicious dinner at the drop of a hat.
