Are you looking for a way to save money in your grocery shopping? It is a known fact that most American homes spend a lot on basic necessities.
With inflation at a steady pace, the thought of being frugal may seem far-fetch. However, shopping for more and paying less is actually possible when one shops at Ingles. It is time to rethink your grocery shopping. If it is grocery shopping on the cheap you want, here are some ideas how.
Sign Up for an Advantage Card 
If you are a frequent shopper at Ingles, this should not come as a surprise. Each time you check out, you will be asked by the cashier for your advantage card.
Apply for one the next time you shop to enjoy special privileges that come with the card. Ingles’ website allows you to apply for the card for free. You do not only gain rebate points each time you shop, you can also be eligible to special offers and sweepstakes.
Another awesome benefit an Ingles Advantage card brings is shown in its Tools for Schools program. For every penny you pay, a local school will enjoy new school equipment or supplies.
This activity has been going on for a decade and is aimed at supporting the local educational system.
Shop Weekly
If you do not want the hassle of applying for an advantage card, you can always check Ingles weekly deals. Local Ingles grocery markets provide flyers informing their loyal patrons of the store’s weekly deals.
