6. Shop in Bulk

Don’t be afraid to stock your pantry with bulk-bought items. More often than not, shopping at bulk food stores can save you a lot of cash. Despite spending more for the week, the trade-off will actually be to your advantage because you’ll have foods stocking your pantry for ages. The better your pantry is stocked, the easier it is to throw together meals. And, in the weeks after, you’ll spend less money because your kitchen will already be stocked with basic items.

At the bulk store, you can stock-up on dry foods like, rice, pastas, beans, flour, sugar, nuts and dried fruit. You can also save 59% on things like toilet roll and 84% on diapers.

Additionally, if you don’t have a car to transport your bulk items home, this can be a great time to make good of free-delivery from online grocery stores. You’ve heard of Amazon Pantry, right?
