Tips for Cutting Your Grocery Bill

Today's Today Show (how redundant is that) had a quick feature on simple things to cut your grocery bill. They're tips I've mostly been espousing forever, like checking deals, using coupons, not buying the full x of a product that's commonly advertised as x for $y unless you really want that x amount, and one of my crusades, know your prices and check your receipt. The speaker from Consumer Reports cited data showing that six percent of grocery charges are incorrect. It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out something was wrong when my bunch of chard rang up at $99 last week at Sunflower, but more subtle goofs are common and worth checking for. You can watch the video or read the transcript of the interview here.
