my strategy is to only go shopping at supermarkets when i have recently eaten a decent meal, and i already have enough food back at home to survive with out needing to go grocery shopping for a few days. that way i only buy bargains, and reasonably often dont buy anything at all. it helps to live close to multiple supermarkets, and have too much spare time.
- chiefalchemist 8y ago> "...and reasonably often dont buy anything at all..." Yes. But time has a cost. The reality is, leaving empty handed is a loss. As for bargains, that's the key. Buy big when X is priced low.

Great strategy, but if you ever have interruptions that cause you to empty out the larder, you will then starve since you can't shop. Oh, wait... you're probably a human being not a computer program. Sorry: it's a kind of a reflexive code review process for me by now.
