Easy Ways Utahns Can Save Money While Buying

Everyone in Utah will start penny-pinching with all the product increases coming to grocery stores and other products.

The U.S. is about to feel the tariffs from President Donald Trump starting April 5. Goods like coffee, tomatoes, salmon, and more will see a price hike. So, saving money is going to be very important to getting through this.

Here Are Ways to Save On Groceries

Buy Local

Going to the grocery store is a tough gig right now. Just a few products can easily cost you up to $50 or more. However, a good alternative is heading to the local farmer’s market and stocking up on produce, eggs, and baked goods there.

Not only does that help local production but the prices tend to be fairer.

Find Alternatives

Maple syrup is produced mainly in Canada and imported though there are local maple syrup producers in the U.S. So, when shopping for products see if you can find a good alternative. Things like honey will be good to replace maple syrup with.

Make It Last

Buying groceries that can be used in multiple meals or frozen will help stretch your dollar a little bit. You’ll get the most out of your money and be able to use up all the products you got. So, check what is freezable and for how long and plan your meals ahead for multiple product usage.

How To Save Money on Other Products

Items like iPhones, computers, clothing and more are expected to get a price hike. This means that buying new is going to be even more costly.

Buy Second Hand

Buying from secondhand stores is the best way to go to save money on these products. Websites like Facebook Market Place will also offer used computers and phones so you can check there.
