I didn't see this one listed and it is one I live by:

most stores now have savings cards and will often have buy one get ones or really cheap prices. When it is an item I use a lot of or that stores well I buy in bulk. I never pay more than .33 for a can of name brand veggies and that is all I buy. I just buy a few cases when they are 3 for a buck or four for a buck. I do the dame with rices and noodles.
