Doing Your Homework Pays Off!

I'm not sure how all of you organize your grocery list but what I do is write it on a 3x5 index card. It is easy to cary around and works great for me!  Anyhow.  So yesterday mine looked a little something like this:

Frys

gatorade  $.49 each (32 oz)

milk         $1.47 each

pears        $1 / lb

apples      $1 / lb

zucchini     $1 / lb

Safeway

red grapes      $.88 / lb

and so on....

Here is where doing your homework pays off.  By having this handy dandy little index card I have the sale price and also which store right there and I can also see who's price is cheaper (when shopping at Wal Mart).  Take for example Bashas this week had C&H brown or powdered sugar (16 0z) on sale for $.99 each.  However once I got to the store they are $.94 cents.  Not a lot of difference but I'll take it!

So share with me how you organize your shopping list!
