In my quest for saving money at the grocery story, I have used with much success the store brand products available at Wegman's. In the past, I have also used the brands sold at Walmart and Target, and I have to say that I have not been disappointed yet.
I noticed that I save more when I buy store brands than when I use coupons (and I don't have to waste time clipping anything!). My favorite Wegman's store brand products include pastas (all kinds), sour cream and cheeses, milk, and sauces. Many of my new recipes and meals are made with these products. Corn and green bean cans are less than 50 cents each, so these prices can't be beat!
Not all store brand products are created equal, however. Some research is needed before one commits to a store brand. According to a NBC news report, a shopper can save about 25% by using store brands, but not all of these products were able to match or surpass their brand counterparts. For more information, take a look at this report.
