Today is Saturday. Thanksgiving is over. Black Friday is over. Until Christmas we are not going to be relieved from the bombardment of “DEALS” that we cannot pass. Did you know that there are other stores were you can get fantastic deals for other than electronics, cloths, and stuff?
Last night I had to take an emergency run to Winco, my local grocery store, because we were out of bacon. In our family, Saturday morning pancakes and bacon is a bigger tradition than Thanksgiving dinner.
While walking through the store at about 6pm, I started to notice some changes in price. They were rather dramatic.
In fact, it was earlier Friday, I noticed that at the local Jackson store had dropped the price of my favorite energy drink. The Starbucks 15 ounce Double Shot Mocha was 50 cents less than it was two days before.
Now back to Winco, my local grocery store, and the observed price drops.
Now this is a good time to make a strong case for money management. Instead of spending everything in the food budget. It is always good to keep some in reserve. There will be times where such door busting deals will show. It will idea to stock up.
That is why our parents and grandparents had a chest freezer, and food pantry. When a great deal on food came along, they would stock up. Even today, I have know of people living a whole winter of deer and elk meat that they have gotten from that years hunting. We can do the same from observation of really great deals in the grocery store.
