Most grocery stores have a markdown basket that is usually in the rear of the store next to the stockroom entrance.
These baskets include name brands marked down at least 50% just because of a dent in a can or a tear in a bag. I spend 25.00 and walk out with more than 130.00 worth of food.
Even the meat department will have 50% off of meat that is a day or two from expiring, however, if you buy the meat and freeze it, it will last another year.
My house if full of groceries and I have two freezers full of meat. Now my average grocery bill is $200.00 a month and I don't even have to spend that.
