We've all seen the sales where the sign says 10/$10 or 4/$12. This subconsciously sends us the message that we should probably buy 10 or 4 to get the deal. That is exactly what the grocer wants you to do. They want you to load up your cart with 10 items and feel good that you got a good deal on them. Here's a secret! You DON'T have to buy 10 to get the items for $1/each. You can buy any quanity because each one is $1 regardless of how many you buy! The same goes for the 4/$12 deal. This is a deal that Target has going this week for Coke products. The sign says 4 12 packs for $12. What that means is that each 12 pack is $3.00. Buy as many as you like at that price!
When you shop be sure to be looking for coupons affixed to items on the shelves. When I was at Target yesterday for pop I noticed that some of the Sprite 12 packs had a sticker on them for a FREE 2 liter bottle of pop with the purchase of the 12 pack. So. . . I bought 3 12 packs of Sprite for $9.00 and got 3 2 liter bottles of pop for FREE. I saved $8.22 on this deal. Not bad. ALWAYS keep your eyes open for coupons at the store. If you don't plan to use them immediately, take a few anyway and file them away for a later date. You'll be surprised how often they will come in handy for a deal down the road!
