There are a few threads about this woe being more expensive so I figured if we could post what we do to save money?
My grocery bill for 4 people is around $80/wk, down about $35-40 since I'm not buying junk anymore, and I don't even really use that many coupons. I do shop sales, and I stick to natural foods rather than packaged low carb foods.

My tips:

1. Sam's Club is a great source for so many low carb items. nuts in bulk, meats, cheese, mayo, vegetables, bars if you use them.

2. Buy whole heads of romaine or lettuce of your choice. Wash it and store it in a bowl covered with a damp paper towel. It's so much cheaper than the bags of prewashed lettuce! Same with heads of broccoli etc. Wash and put away when you get home, then you have it all ready for the week.

3. Buy cheese in big chunks and make your own cubes for snacking rather than buying string cheese or already cubed cheese. Big savings.

4. Buy a turkey breast and roast it rather than buying the turkey at the deli. It's usually around $2/lb for a turkey breast, but can be $8/lb for the deli meat! Besides, then you KNOW what's in it.

5. Buy one lot of bottled water, then refill the empties rather than buying new ones every week. Bottled water gets to be expensive after a while.

6. Buy cheap chicken wings, cook up a bunch and have them in the freezer. Just reheat for a quick lunch.

7. Try to keep away from packaged low carb convenient foods. They're terribly expensive, and labels can be deceiving.

8. Water down dressings a bit. Ranch and bleu cheese especially have so much flavor that they can hold up to it.

9. Make your own salad dressings. I have three that I made myself and all three are cheaper than one single bottle of store bought dressing. Big savings since we eat so much of it.

Anyone else have any thoughts?
