What Are the Best Days of the Week To Shop for Major Savings?
In addition to using these websites and apps, you can save additional money by shopping on the best days of the week for grocery sales.
“In general, grocery stores run their sales cycles from Wednesday to Wednesday, so shoppers can usually find the best deals mid-week,” said Brittney Kine, owner of The Savvy Kitchen, a blog striving to help other families eat better, save money and waste less. “However, some stores may offer special deals on weekends or specific days of the week. For example, many stores offer senior citizen discounts on Tuesdays or Thursdays. Checking your local store’s ad or website before you go shopping can help you find the best deals.”
