This week was Supermarket Week at Aldo’s blog MillionDollarNinja. Aldo wrote a post about several tricks supermarkets use to get you to spend more money at their stores. Some of them are pretty sneaky and I hate thinking that I probably fell for a lot of them many times (I’m looking at you, 10-for-10 deals!).
But supermarkets aren’t all bad. Turns out there are a lot of ways we can save money while grocery shopping. Aldo also wrote about all the things that supermarkets can do for us – from grinding meat for fresh ground hamburgers to supporting local community fundraisers.
Check out Aldo’s posts from this week.
