The ultimate guide to avoid spending your whole paycheck.
Check for local deals online.
Although it has a reputation for being a pricier grocery store, Whole Foods actually offers a lot of ways for bargain hunters to save.
First and foremost, always check local sales flyers and coupons online. While you're at it, sign up for their free newsletter. You'll also be entered to win a $50 gift card.
If you're at Whole Foods and didn't bring coupons, just grab a printed copy of The Whole Deal as you enter the store.
Don't forget about manufacturer coupons.
In addition to its in-store coupons, Whole Foods also accepts manufacturer coupons. Just make sure to familiarize yourself with the products and brands that your local store carries.
If you can't find any coupons for products you like in the Sunday paper, try emailing a few of the companies that produce them to see if they can send coupons via email or snail mail.
