So today I went into the supermarket specifically to buy broccoli as there was an in-store deal. The person I was buying it for mentioned that two of them would be good as there was a four-pound limit to the sale price. I was thinking of getting as much as I can though since it was a good price and it’s a habit I usually have if I know the items will get consumed in a reasonable timeframe. Especially if it is packaged items that last a long time. That’s what I ended up doing s I weighed the product to make sure I was going over and bought just under four pounds of broccoli for about $4.50.
I’m actually kind of surprised when people don’t try and take full advantage of these types of deals. For example, if someone sees juice on sale that they would normally buy they would still just buy one like they usually do and be happy with it. But if you could buy three of them for the price of one that you would usually pay as a example then you should be purchasing as much as you can within the limit and stock up so that you don’t have to worry about the purchase next time.
It’s an important way to place yourself in a position to be able to saving money consistently as you are less likely to be forced to pay full retail price on the items you consume regularly if you are able to stock up during sales.
