Money Saving Shopping Tips "Study The Shelves" Please comment.

We had my wifes bloodwork done and we found out some very disturbing things, her blood pressure,
seriously high, blood sugar, way out of whack and cholesterol, off the charts. In six months she has lost 35 pounds, blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol are all at normal levels. No drugs just a very simple diet. I will post the diet along with her blood work results in a before and after post after the Holidays are over.

3 pack (0.32 per ounce)

4 pack (0.39 PER OUNCE)

Now back to the subject; the shelves are not only a display for products, they actually "talk!" The cost per sheet, cost per ounce. On numerous shopping trips the larger sizes were more  expensive. Cereal, probably the number one culprit, toilet paper, and the juice aisle. I'm seeing it more and more. Be diligent, money is tight in this economy, taking a few extra minutes will help you save a lot of money over the long term. Remember check serving sizes per product. Example, I'm holding a jar of honey, under nutrition facts it reads, serving size 1 tablespoon (21 grams) Servings 33 per container. The total fat, sodium, total carbs, sugars and protien are based per serving not per jar, very important when choosing a low carb  or low calorie diet. This jar of honey has 17 grams of carbs and 16 grams of sugar per serving. It also reads in very small print on the bottom, *Percent of Daily Values are based on a 2,000 calorie diet. Read labels, they "talk" too. How does old fashioned bread pudding sound? Recipe coming in my next blog. Please enjoy the original, "Snap, Crackle and Pop" video. When you poured the milk on the cereal, it made noise, thus snap, crackle, pop!
