Here are some excellent ways of cutting costs on what you spend on food and drink both when you?re out shopping, and when you?re eating or drinking out too which are provided by Ross at http://frugalfood.org.uk/.
Bulk buying can save you money on many products, and with wholesale retailers like Costco, Bestway and Makro you can make some huge savings. ?Don?t forget to take the membership fee into account though as well.
Independent cafes, bakeries and coffee shops are often cheaper, so try buying your morning coffee and doughnut from an independent shop instead of a chain like Starbucks and you could find yourself saving ???s.
There are many great cuts of meat being forgotten today like Skirt and cheeks, and can be just as tasty as shank or fillet if you know how to cook it. ?Cheaper cuts are often just a bit tougher and need slower cooking to make them softer, but invest in a slow cooker or crock pot and you can cook some fabulous tasty meaty dinners at home for far less.
Use the website mysupermarket.co.uk to check out which supermarket will offer you the best value on the basket of shopping you want to buy. ?It instantly shows you the savings you could make, and will even off you money and health tips as well.
Drop down from branded to own brand products, or from higher end own brand to budget range own brand. ?Dropping down a single level can save a fair few pennies and often if the truth be told few of us can taste the difference between expensive corn flakes and cheaper own brand ones that may come in a less colourful packet.
Make your own? Healthy smoothies are all the rage at the moment but are quite expensive. ?Instead spend the money on a smoothie maker and then you can buy cheap bags of fruit at the end of the day off the market and make your own value smoothies. ?You can do the same with baking your own bread at home, or even making jams and chutneys as well.
The Good Food Guide 2012 is now out and as well as hundreds of restaurant recommendations and reviews it also contains ?50 of vouchers to help you save money when you eat out.
Use loyalty cards when you shop ? if you?re shopping there anyway then you might as well save the points, and after a few trips to the supermarket or coffee shop you?ll have enough points to treat yourself to something special or just pay for part of your weekly shop. ?Credit card reward schemes can be beneficial too as long as you pay them off regularly.
Choose your discounts wisely. ?It?s all very well to buy lots of items on special offer or three for two deals, but if half the stuff goes to waste before you can use it, you may well end up wasting money not saving it. ?Toiletries, loo rolls, and other non-perishable items are the best things to bag as bargains in the long term.
