  • Change the rules on unit prices when you have a coupon

    Unit price is an important way of comparing the effective cost of different package sizes. Generally speaking, the lower the unit price, the better the deal, and larger packages usually offer a better unit price. Savvy shoppers know [...]
  • Never pay full price for cereal
    At full price breakfast cereal can very expensive, at upwards of $4 per box. It's a deliberate trick by manufacturers who can then offer big sales on cereal. Be LOZO savvy and take advantage of these sales to stock up.

    On pretty much any [...]
  • If it's on sale, don't buy just one box
    Breakfast cereal is one of the most talked about food items on deal sites and coupon forums as it is usually unnecessary to pay full price for a box. Watch the weekly circular for when your favorite brand is on sale and then stock up. Note the [...]
  • Watch for daily sales on bread
    Nearly every day some baked goods are on sale. As they approach their expiration date, bakery items will be tagged with must sell stickers and a reduced price tag. Each supermarket branch is responsible for their own supply so keep track of what [...]
  • Eat breakfast at home or bring it with you
    Almost any meal prepared by someone outside the home will cost you a lot of extra money – breakfast is no exception. Eating a quick bowl of cereal, preparing a breakfast sandwich or grabbing some fruit and a breakfast bar means a few extra dollars [...]
  • Don't get ripped off with oatmeal
    Instant oatmeal is not instant. There is still preparation and cleanup involved, just the total cooking time is reduced. Traditional oatmeal only requires about 5 minutes of cooking time. Take this into account when comparing prices as the regular [...]
  • Avoid convenience packaging
    Individual serving sized packages for cereal and oatmeal usually have a much high unit price. The item might take up the same amount of space on the shelf and have the same total price, but the extra cost is seen when you compare how much product [...]
  • Don't get boxed in to paying more for cereal
    Cereal is now sold in a variety of packaging. The traditional cardboard box takes up most of the front part of the aisle, but make sure to look at the entire space as cereal in plastic bags is starting to make a presence. The cheaper packaging often [...]
  • Bacon Bacon
    Breakfast meats like bacon and sausage will often go on sale as a Buy One, Get One (BOGO) special. These meats will not last forever in the refrigerator, but frozen they are safe for a couple of months (see StillTasty.com). When a good deal strikes, [...]
  • Smoothies to go
    Shakes and smoothies can be great for breakfast, but hard on the wallet. A store-made smoothie can cost more than $5 and often the ingredients are sugar laden with unnecessary calories. Consider buying your own ingredients (fresh or frozen fruit, [...]
  • Make your own frozen foods
    Freshly made breakfast treats like pancakes and french toast can be frozen for 1-2 months and then re-heated as needed. Check out StillTasty.com for ideas on what you can store, and for how long. Making these "from scratch" or from a mix is quite [...]
  • Instant foods hate your wallet
    Some rice, oats and pastas are now available in "instant" varieties. Be careful with these items as they can cost more than twice as much as the regular variety. Cooking a fresh batch only takes a few extra minutes, tastes better and will save you a [...]
  • Don't get misled by the price of the cereal box when trying to save
    Cereals are often sold in a variety of sizes. A smart shopper is interested in the unit price of the box, not the retail price. For example, a 24oz box of cereal that sells for $3.00 is "cheaper" than a 12oz box for $2.50 since you are getting [...]
  • Extra bread need not spoil
    Take advantage of sales on bread by freezing extra loaves. There are a number of methods to freezing bread to insure that it stays soft and fresh when it is defrosted.
