Buying in bulk

Buying in Bulk

So this topic is one I spoke to in my first post. Buying in bulk is one of the methods I use most often to save money. If I find something I USE on sale, I buy as many as I can allow in my budget.

Just so happens I found an amazing deal at Safeway a few weeks ago on salmon.
I know...salmon. On sale. jackpot.

They had a deal on raw salmon, buy one get one free. 
I was a bit skeptical on the quality since you don't see salmon on sale often, but I purchased in February 15 and the expiration date was February 19, so I figured I was safe.

I went ahead an purchased the two filets they had sitting there, one was $28 and the other was $32, so I paid $32 for these two HUGE pieces of fish.

I ended up preparing the fish as soon as I got home and cut it into portions.

I got a total of 16 portions out of the salmon I purchased, at $32, that puts me at $2 per portion. 

I can't beat that ever for fresh fish.

This was one deal I could NOT pass up.

So to make the most of your budget dollars, I suggest going through flyers. I would have missed this deal if I hadn't seen it in the flyer since they weren't marked or advertised at all in the store.
