Filipinos from all walks of life has certainly been affected by the ongoing food and oil crises. I consider writing an article on money saving tips as my own little way of helping ease the burden of my countrymen. Besides one of the main theme of my blog is money saving tips. The following are money saving tips that I have experienced and would like to share them with you: 1.) Buy in bulk - Go to your local grocery store and compare prices. In particular, compare prices between small items and big items. For example, a 50 gram sachet of detergent powder vs. 250 grams. You will notice that the bigger the size, the cheaper it will get. In fact there is usually a tag that says "Save P15" and if you buy the bigger one, the numbers will get bigger. It might say "Save P 20." The principle is simple. The more you buy in bulk, the more savings you will have. So avoid small item repacks. If it fits your budget, buy in bigger quantities. This one instance wherein bigger is always better. Believe me, you would want to seriously consider this as one of the most important among the money saving tips offered here. 2.) Industrial suppliers sell them cheaper - You can get cheaper items from companies because either they buy in bulk or they produce their own. I got this idea when I started thinking about buying in bulk. I figured out that I could buy detergent much more cheaper if I bought them per sack. Unfortunately, the grocery stores did not sell them per sack. So I asked around and discovered that you can get cheap detergent from laundry shops. 3.) Be conscious about who your supplier is - I talked a little bit about this money saving tip in my previous post. However that deals with not buying in a convenience store. In this money saving tip, the point I am driving is that you choose which store you could find a cheaper price for a certain type of need. For example, vegetables and meat products are definitely cheaper in the wet market than in your favorite grocery store so it is advisable to shop there for these kinds of items. The reason for this is that they buy directly from the farmers and fishermen. Dry goods, canned foods and other items is definitely cheaper in the grocery stores because the grocery stores buys directly from the manufacturers in whole sale.
