Stores regularly offer incredibly low prices on selected products to entice consumers to do all of their shopping at their store. Stores typically make little or no profit on these items, and occasionally they may lose money on the sale of these products. Therefore, although you can save a bundle by stocking up on loss leaders, remember that stores are forced to raise prices on other items to recover the money they lose on the loss leaders. Beware of the displays located at the end of the aisles. Although they're big sellers for the store, they rarely contain good buys.
Many grocery stores place the products that make the most profit at eye level.
Look towards the top or bottom of the shelves for a better bargain. Grocery stores will literally give away products around holidays to attract customers to their stores. Some examples include candy during Halloween and batteries during Christmas. Seek out grocery stores in your area that offer multiple coupon savings. The price information on your price sheets should be updated every time you see a lower price.
