Okay, so you could not wait for a Whole Foods Weekly Ad that would tell you how to get discounts at the organic foods supermarket. But aside from that, there are other ways for you to save at Whole Foods such as:
Bring a Reusable Bag
You can get 10 cents off your total for every bag that you use during checkout. Instead of just bring one huge reusable bag, why don’t you bring four to five smaller bags to maximize your savings. This would translate to 50 cents of savings. Not a bad deal, as you can also help in saving the environment.
Avoid Shopping When Hungry
Shopping on an empty stomach will likely make you put items on your grocery bag that you really don’t need. It can also throw a wrench at your grocery list, since you want to try everything.
Additionally, you should familiarize yourself with the layout of the store. Generally, the dry goods and bulk products are placed in the middle of the store, while meat, seafood, and baked goods are around the perimeter.
Armed with that knowledge, you will know what to steer clear of so you can avoid food items you don’t really need.
Buy in Bulk
Buying in bulk can go a long way. Of course, you should buy non-perishables so you won’t be pressured to consume all of the foods you bought. Pantry staples like nuts, dried beans, and grains are some of the foods you should buy in bulk.
Try before you buy
Whole Foods is known for its liberal “try before you buy” offer, which applies to almost everything in its outlet. So take advantage of this opportunity as there could be a chance that the staff will let you take the rest of the food as a freebie, especially when they are in a good mood.
And even if you don’t get that lucky, taking advantage of this offer will let you take a sample of foods you may not have the money to spend on.
When buying juices, opt for bigger bottles
Sure, smaller bottles are convenient but these are also more expensive. Buy a few of them, then wash and refill with juice from larger bottles. You will be able to save a lot. Moreover, keep an eye on details as you can get discount bottles that are up to 20 percent cheaper than regular priced items.
So who needs info from Whole Foods Weekly Ad about discounts offered at the said store?
