Manage diabetic’s investment #4

The Next tips for manage the diabetic's investment is Manage your supermarket. Organize your shopping according to the layout of your supermarket. Research shows that the longer you stay in the store, the more you're likely to spend, mainly on impulse buying. That's why stores keep the high turnover items, such as dairy and meat, way in back.

You can beat the game by going directly to the appropriate shelf or freezer, picking up your item, and moving on.

Learn your store's sale cycle, too. For example, once you get the hang of it, you may be able to count on sale-priced canned soups, frozen vegetables, or fresh boneless chicken breasts, say, on the last day of the month.

Only use coupons for your regular purchases, not something that "looks interesting." But do take advantage of double and triple coupon days.

In shopping, as in real estate, location can make all the difference. A 20-ounce bottle of diet soda might cost 89 cents at a checkout counter display, while a much larger bottle might go for the same price in the soft drink aisle.

And don't turn down store brands. They can be excellent buys. Often priced 30 percent below national brands, many are produced by brand name manufacturers.

Although it does take some planning and attention, you can help your family eat well, keep to a diabetes food plan, and still have a fat wallet and a thin waistline.
