This sounds simple, but the #1 way I’ve saved money is by shopping at Aldi. I made a price book and figured out, ounce-for-ounce, that Aldi prices are better than buying in bulk (most of the time) and other supermarket sales- and there’s the added bonus of not having to spend time cutting coupons (or spending money to subscribe to the newspaper at all!)
