Nobody has time to waste walking up and down the aisles of different stores – compare the week’s best deals online through the likes of allcatalogues.co.za or findspecials.co.za. Also sign up for rewards programs such as unileverdeals.co.za, where you can see what specials are available at your preferred retailers, and then have the discount voucher sent to your phone to be redeemed in store. Lastly, (and yes, it really can be as simple as this) the less time you spend in the shops, the less money you’ll spend on unnecessary extras, so try to commit to just one big grocery shop a week.
