YOU HAVE probably often won
dered if you really do save
on grocery specials. According
to a report from OSU which was
taken from a study by Stanford
economists taken over an eight
week period in eight super
markets in Palo Alto, Calif.
They concluded that had the
shopper bought all of the spec
ials and used them to advan
tage, she would have saved over
20 percent, if she bought one
fourth specials and the rest of
her groceries at regular prices,
she would have trimmed her
bills bv at least 10 Der rent!
Obviously, specials can't pay off
ii : u you nave to travel to
several different areas, (2) your
time is at a premium, (3) you
don't use to advantage, foods
bought on specials. Plan your
menus and take advantage of
the market specials.
