These Are The Cheapest Days To Go Grocery Shopping
Food shopping can be a huge headache - especially when it comes time to check out. From the moment you enter those automatic doors and grab your cart, the dollar signs start adding up. Though it's not nearly as bad as the check you get while wining and dining at a restaurant, supermarket bills can be expensive. Regardless, if you like food, like at all, these are the sacrifices you'll make to not eat instant ramen every night.
Like most busy people, weekend days are the most popular to tackle the daunting task of food shopping. But according to new research from Ibotta, an app that partners up with retailers to give cash back deals, you're doing it all wrong. Across the country, the weekend is the priciest time to make your way through your grocery list.

But, don't fret. Ibotta also recommended the best days to shop 'til you drop.
If you're stocking up on wine, considering grabbing your bottles on Tuesdays. You could stand to pay 4 percent less.
Wednesdays are ideal for buying bread (it's 2 percent cheaper on hump day) and beer, which is about 1 percent less expensive. If you're a snack lover, head to the store on Thursdays to get a little less than 1 percent off many sweet and savory items. On Friday's you can get produce and ice cream around 1 percent cheaper.
Though you won't see massive discounts on the spot at check out, if you buy wine and ice cream at the rate we do, get excited to see some serious dolla bills add up over time.
