Buying Groceries Many nutritionists say that the best way to buy groceries is to visit the outside aisles of the grocery store and avoid the inside ones. The fresh food is almost always in the outside aisles; canned and packaged foods are almost always in the middle ones.

The problem, of course, is that most of us don't shop for groceries every day; we tend to stock up on foods that will last us a week or more, trying to limit our trips to the store to as few as possible each month. Fresh foods just don't last longer than a week, so we buy canned or frozen fruits and vegetables and packaged dinners. They tend to be more expensive, though. Remember, you're paying for the packages, too.
