coupons and grocery outlet and albertsons & Costco (because I need that 5 gallon jug of mayo :) ) Albies always got something on sale that I need and they have this bomb a stock up sale 10 for 10$ on things like Juice, fresh veggies a 5lb bag of taters for 1$. I just used up the last of the 1/2 gallon juices that I bought in Dec....And they give you 5$ coupons on your purchases...I grocery shop once a month and my budget for 3 people is 150$, and believe it or not it lasts.
The best way to shop is to plan your menu for the month. I know it sounds a little martha stewartish, but if you plan your meals, and buy what you need for them (assuming you don't have to stock up on essentials everytime you go), it really saves money. Being off on a Sunday and Monday helps because I can prep for the week for meals and then that way we just heat what we need.
