So here are some tips for saving money on groceries, from lifestyle content writer Kendra Tan:

1. Prepare a shopping list and use the Consumers Association of Singapore’s Price Kaki app to check prices and find out where to get the cheapest products.

2. A bigger pack is not always cheaper. Calculate the unit cost of a product to know if a smaller or larger pack is better value for money.

3. Consider house brands. They tend to be cheaper because supermarket chains can cut out the middleman and save advertising costs.

4. Check out budget shops. These stores generally offer discounted prices on items like soft drinks, enabled by factors such as buying overstocked items from suppliers.

5. Buy vouchers from trustworthy shopping apps when there are promotions. For instance, Tan paid one cent for a S$1.50 voucher from e-commerce firm Shopee when it had a tie-up with grocery chain Tian Ma Group.
