How I beat inflation: Groceries Edition 🛒

I feel like by now, I can consider myself as an expert in picking out the best deals & types of products without spending too much.

It would help to weigh out the supermarket outlets & what you are planning to buy. For example, Sheng Siong generally sells produce at a lower cost, but some things may still be more expensive than NTUC. Some research needs to be done to compare the costs based on what you regularly purchase.

How I view supermarkets in the order of affordability: Sheng Siong > Giant > NTUC > Cold storage

But of course, don't forget to take into account the amount of effort required to travel to the supermarket & if you drive/take public transport. For example, it doesn't make sense for me to travel all the way to JB to buy my groceries. Even if they are significantly cheaper than SG, I require more time/energy to travel down. If I were to drive down, the petrol would probably be able to cover for the actual cost of the items if I were to just simply buy in SG.

My husband has come a long way in his grocery shopping purchases. Now, he proudly shares his best deals with me from his grocery runs 😁
