Quick Article on Cutting Your Grocery Bill in Supermarkets: Cut your grocery bill now: "7 ways to avoid the cash traps at your local grocer"

The Blogher site has a short and concise article on how to save money in supermarket. Essentially, it provides seven items that you should avoid buying, as they tend to be heavily marked up. For example, a bagged salad costs more than three times than the cost of a head of lettuce. Visit the site to read "7 ways to avoid the cash traps at your local grocer."

Even if you forget the seven items to avoid, the most important tip (actually a reminder) for me is to stay around the perimeter of the store to shop for the basics: fruits, vegetables, meat, dairy and bakery. The inside aisles are where you will find the processed, "less-than healthy" highly marked up products.
