24. I have been meaning to post this tip too but just haven't... Farmer's markets! Really, they're hands down better prices than the stores. Many cities will have them at least on Saturday/Sunday and you can buy your produce for about a third of the price of retailers in many cases. To save even more, go toward the end of the day and sellers give deep deep discounts to get rid of their merchandise. The selection isn't what it was at the beginning but you may surprise yourself with what you can find to make with Kale, Arugala or turnips. And the fruits and veggies you love are probably still as good or better quality than the stores!
25. Also, check with your local grocery. When produce isn't "pretty" anymore, many of them just throw it out!! See what you can work in the way of a discount for this produce. Sometimes stores will sell at a deep discount to a "salvage store" that will sell at a deep discount from another location. Check here for a salvage store near you: http://www.andersonsmarket.info/directory . No longer "pretty" doesn't mean it's not still healthy and nutritious!!
