<human>:  How to save money on groceries?
<bot>: One way to save money on groceries is to plan your meals in advance and create a grocery list. Shop only for what is on your list to avoid unnecessary and expensive impulse purchases. You should also take advantage of store specials and try to buy produce that is in season, as they tend to be cheaper. Bulk items such as grains and beans are usually less expensive than pre-packaged alternatives, and buying in bulk may help you save money. Finally, try to buy generic brand products and take advantage of store rewards programs, which can offer additional discounts.
