price comparison list

One of the most useful ways to save on groceries is to have a price comparison list. I was really surprised to find that many name brand items cost 25% more at one local grocery store than at the other. I've also known for a long time that purchases at warehouse clubs are not always the best deal. Many times a generic or less-expensive version can be purchased at a grocery store. Know the price per unit.

    What do you do about the fact that places are constantly changing their prices? It might be cheaper one place one week and another place the next week. Unless you have time to shop at 5 different stores to get the rock bottom price on every item, it seems like it evens out in the end because some things are more expensive at one store, but other things may be cheaper.
