GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) - WOTV 4 Women Crew Member Sarah Jehnzen shares her top tips to help you save big every time you shop.  Some of her go-to ideas to stay on track with your budget and put some aside for yourself include the following:

1. Make sure you use the weekly ad from your favorite shopping destination every time you shop - use the add as your primary list-making tool.

2. Shop at least one drug store during the week.

3.  Use a website to do the work for you.

4.  Search for coupons and codes online

By using these methods, you can lower the cost of your grocery and household shopping starting right now. Sarah knows this first hand. She spends an average of $40 a week on groceries to feed a family of four!
