8 Grocery Store Items That Aren’t Worth It

January 22, 2025 · Lifestyle

A kind older woman in a sunlit kitchen scoops almonds from a large bag into small glass containers. Empty single-serving snack bags are nearby.
Portioning out snacks saves money and helps you control what you eat.

6. Single-serving snacks

If you’re trying to be mindful of the things you eat in a day, single-serving snacks might seem like a great deal, but let me tell you that this grocery store item is not worth the price tag.

Whether it’s cookies, fruit and nut mixes, chips, or plain nuts, buying the larger size and portioning them yourself into glass containers or reusable bags is much more cost-effective.

You get more by paying less; you reduce waste and also control your portion sizes at the same time.
