7. Avoid Pre-cut Foods

Pre-cut foods like vegetables or shredded cheese seem convenient at first, especially if you have a busy schedule but if you want to save up more money, these are the first things you should switch on your shopping list. 

If you have children, consider asking them to help you out. That way, you’ll still have enough time on your hands while also teaching them a thing or two about cooking.  Giving your kids (or grandkids!) the responsibility of shredding some cheese will also make them feel like they’re contributing to the household. It’s a win-win situation!
