Prices are currently rising drastically in almost all areas of life.

With these tricks, you can save at least when shopping for the week.

Dortmund – Inflation has arrived in many areas of life.

Not only have energy prices increased astronomically, but food prices have also increased.

Simple but very effective tricks can be used to save on weekly shopping.

Save money when shopping: plan and don't go to the supermarket when you're hungry

Whether sweets, potatoes or meat.

Consumers will have to dig significantly deeper into their pockets for groceries this year than in 2021. The increased energy prices, higher material costs and also disruptions to supply chains as a result of the Ukraine war are affecting our weekly shopping.

A few tips will help you save money here.

So it's always a good idea to write a shopping list so you don't go to the supermarket without a plan.

A haphazard purchase tempts you to buy much more than you actually need, reports

.

This also saves valuable time.

Ideally, this can even be used to prepare an entire weekly schedule.

In addition, the meal for each day of the week is already fixed.

You should also avoid going shopping when you are hungry.

In this case, the gut gets the upper hand over the intellect and an unnecessarily large number of products end up in the shopping cart (more service news at RUHR24).

Save money when shopping: compare and take advantage of discounts

Even before the weekly plan is created, offers and discounts in the various discounters should be compared.

This is how you find the best bargain, as reported by RUHR24.

It is suitable to study the various brochures from Aldi, Edeka and other supermarkets.

But be careful: Some offers refer to certain pack sizes and quantities.

Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the price per gram or kilogram.

Coupons that reduce prices for certain products can also make shopping cheaper.

They can be found in advertising brochures, on supermarket shelves or on special apps and online sites.

Among others at Couponplatz, Marktguru and Scondoo.

Cashback campaigns can also help.

Customers have to buy the product first, but are reimbursed afterwards.

But there is a catch: the respective packaging often says that customers pay with personal data in return.

Companies can use these to send personalized advertising, among other things.

Save money when shopping: Shop regionally and seasonally

Another tip: seasonal and regional products are not only better for the environment in many cases, they are also often cheaper.

If asparagus is bought in winter, it probably comes from distant countries and has to be transported at great expense.

These high logistical costs can be saved if the products come from the region and, conversely, are also seasonal.

The closer the purchase date is to the best before date (MHD), the cheaper the product is sold.

Discounters usually have their own corner for products that are about to expire.

So it's worth taking a look at this junk food box.

The “TooGoodToGo” app also takes on this concept.

Food suppliers can register there and offer products that might otherwise be thrown away.

Restaurants and bakers are also represented there.
