Money-Saving Life Hacks For Food & Grocery Expenses

You want to get control of your food and grocery budget to: 

1. Pay off debt 2. Tighten your purse strings for your monthly budget 3. Build your emergency, house or vacation fund

You can save a lot of money (and calories) by simply listening to your body rather than listening to the thoughts in your brain.

#1. Stop Overeating

Healthy snacks like fresh fruits and veggies are less expensive than the packaged snacks you find in the center of the grocery store, but no snacks are the cheapest of all.

#2. Eliminate Snack

If you spend an average of $4 per week on plastic water bottles, by switching to tap or filtered water and using a reusable container, you could save $208 per year.

#3. Ditch Bottled Water

Investing one-time in a good coffee maker and an insulated mug will keep you from sliding back into your old morning coffee drive-through habits.

#4. Brew Your Own Coffee

Switching to a flexitarian diet has numerous health benefits, but from a budgeting perspective, you can rack up a lot of savings by adding a few meatless meals.

#5. Adopt a Flexitarian Lifestyle

Growing your food may seem a little “unconventional,” but it’s practical and cost-effective

#6. Grow Your Own Herbs & Produce
