Shopping behind the stores costs nothing but you have to bring your own bags and wear old clothes.

About the Only way to save money on groceries....or anything at the stores....is to have a shopping list, get the items, and leave. A couple of years ago, the Chamber of Commerce released a report that showed that most people spend at least $3 for every minute they spend browsing around in a store.

Closer to $2 for myself. I usually say $100 an hour is fairly accurate.

To save on food, only shop the perimeter of the store unless you need coffee. The junk food and non food are in the aisles.

Smart!

Before DH died, we had a Sam's Club membership. We'd go there to shop but first visit all the free sample tables I haven't shopped at Sam's in dog's years, but with the pandemic, they probably don't have the free samples anymore. Heck, we could make a meal of the samples!

You are right, no free samples at any food stores.

Oatmeal, pasta, tuna, condiments, bottled juice...also in aisles.
