If you’re reading this right now then you probably love to save money and guess what. So do we! Saving money is what we’re all about here at Pinching Your Pennies so we thought that it was about time we throw something else together for our readers that just revolves around saving money and saving money only. Below, you will find some practical advice on how to spot a deal when you see one and what makes something a deal. All too often, we’re tempted to buy something just because it’s a deal. Let’s find out if that’s good.
Do You Need It?
The first thing that you have to ask yourself when it comes to figuring out whether or not something is a good deal is if you even need the product in question. It may be a good deal but if you’re not going to use it or it will never benefit you in any way, it’s probably not a good deal for you personally. It may be for someone else but remember, it’s not for you.
Is It A Gift?
Another possible scenario is the purpose of buying the product in question. If it’s a gift and it’ll be cheaper to buy it after the birthday, holiday, anniversary, or whatever the gift is, it’s probably not very beneficial to give the gift late. In that case, it isn’t a very good deal in the sense that you would have it too late. If this is the case, pay extra and miss out.
What’s The Shipping Time?
We’ll assume that you are buying this item online and it looks like a good deal. Let’s say that by buying it online from a specific site, you will save $10. What if it takes 5 days to get there and the shipping is $5? That means you’re only saving about $5 and you have to wait for 5 days to get the product. Is it still a good deal? How fast do you need it? This is just something else that you should ask yourself before you commit. When will you get it?
Will It Get Even Cheaper?
Finally, we have one more piece of advice for you on what makes a deal a good one. Is it a product that will potentially go on sale again? Is it something that they no longer make? Is the retailer in question going out of business? If something will be even cheaper in a few days, why not wait and buy it then? This is something else to take into consideration.
But at the end of the day, you have to trust your gut. Whether or not something is a good deal is just an opinion and we’ll leave it up to you to decide. We merely wanted to give you a few general questions that you should play around with before you make the final choice of buying the product and then being stuck with it. Now, let’s go save money!

Are you absolutely in love with fresh fruit? Well, so are we! We love it so much that we went out of our way to put together a little “tip list” full of ways that you can save money on fresh fruit. Yes, we know. It sounds like a pretty awesome concept, huh? Anyways, getting back on topic, we hope that you’re ready to cut down on your fresh fruit bill which will thus enable you to enjoy more of the fresh, ripe, juicy fruit that you love to devour!
Buy Locally
The first way that you can save money on fruit is to buy it locally. Buying fruit locally will ensure that you get the freshest fruit possible for the best price. You’ll also be supporting local farmers or small businesses which is great for your area’s economy. Trust on when we say this. The best way to buy fruit is to find a small fruit stand or shop and buy it locally.
Buy It Regularly
Our second tip is to buy your fresh fruit on a regular basis. In other words, buy it as you need it. What we typically like to do is this. Let’s say that we want some bananas and we usually eat a banana a day. We’ll buy 2-3 bananas max and eat our one banana per day. Once we run out, we go back to the store and get more. Yeah, buy your fruit like that.
Prepare It Yourself
Buying fruit already cut and prepared is pretty convenient but we’re not a fan of it. It will cost you more for that box of sliced fruit than buying the actual fruit and preparing it on your own would be. You get three times as much fruit for half the price. Watermelons and pineapples are both good examples of fruit like this. So, prepare your own fruit and save.
Buy It Canned
Every once in a while, you’ll want to buy canned fruit. Avoid canned fruits that are heavy in syrup or added sugar though. It’s absolutely horrible for you! If you just want your fruit fix though and are on a tighter budget than normal, try buying some canned fruit. If you want to reverse all the added sugar’s effects, eat the canned fruit as soon as you wake. This will ensure that your body’s blood sugar count is low and you’re simply refilling it.
And if you follow all of this advice, we promise that you will save a ton of money on fresh fruits as well as your grocery bill in general. It’s not rocket science and it’s not tough. You just have to make all of this a habit and the savings will come on their own later on. Now, what are you waiting for? Let’s get out there, enjoy some fresh fruit, and save a little bit of money while we’re doing it. As we often say, that’s what life is all about. Fun savings!
