The cupboards are bare, there's nothing to make for dinner; it’s time to go to the grocery
store. You want to try to eat healthier, save money and get out of the grocery
store quickly. Impossible you say? Never fear, it can be done even if it is a
little scary and overwhelming. Grocery stores are all laid out basically the same. Around the perimeter is where you will find meat, produce, dairy, bakery and seafood, this is where you want to start. Then head into the aisles, only go down aisles that have items you want. For example, if you want to only want to drink milk and 100% fruit juice, then avoid the beverage aisle so you won’t be tempted to buy sugary drinks. Here are
a few tips to help you save money, eat healthy and save time.
