[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The trick is having the time to get the products at each store that are cheap. Trader Joes may have cheaper condiments, but their meat is expensive. Costco is best for staples. Giant/Safeway is best for sale items where you stock up on soup or meat when it's on sale. [/quote]

Once I went grocery shopping with my SIL. She does coupons, she enrolls in weird marketing things (she used to work in food marketing and knows a lot about obscure things where you get paid for things where you submit bar codes to track your shopping or something like that). Weekly grocery trip took us to 4 different stores with a long wait at customer service so she could argue for her discount on several boxes of brownie mix she bought on her previous trip. The expedition took 3 hours. I was wiped out by the end. It's just her and her husband, they never had kids. Most weeks I can be in and out of the store in 30 min or less.
