I'm seeing a lot of articles lately on "the 15 best tricks..." / "20 secret hacks..." / "10 killer ways to save money on groceries" / etc. And honestly they're all saying the same thing:
- Use Ibotta or other rebate apps (yeah, they're cool, but not a magic bullet of savings)
- Make a list & don't stray from it
- Buy "loss leaders" (the really good deals on the front page of the grocery circular)
- Use coupons
- Buy on Sale
- Yadda' yadda' yadda'
None of it is new, and there's no magic bullet of savings. You still have to do the work.
