Staying Fit
The next time you create your grocery list, make sure to fill your cart with goodies from a store that offers discounts off your grocery bill. You don’t even have to be a coupon clipper to take advantage of most of these deals.
Several grocery chains offer shoppers age 50 and over savings between 5 and 10 percent off their total grocery bill at checkout.
