I do several things on this list, but where I save the most is buying in bulk. Especially on things like diapers, wipes, paper products, and staples. As long as it is something I can use up before it goes bad, it usually saves me a lot.

I only buy sale items. In our city, there is no reason not too! I have three sons so I shop Gap and Old Navy and can score clothing new for less then $3 most of the time. And, because it is good quality I can hand the items down, wash and wash and wash and they still hold up. So basically, this is my greatest savings. Coupons, whew! I admire those who do use them... too much time for me! LOL.

We buy in bulk, sale items, and generic items. Costco feels like one of our main grocery stores.

I buy bulk on things like diapers and wipes - still last long with 2 in diapers still. Also buy lots of generic and try use coupons but could be using more im sure.
