Are you a smart shopper? Near my local town in New Jersey, there are three supermarkets, Stop and Shop, A & P and Fairway Markets. This week they each have special deals on certain products.
If you bought all the items on my grocery list in one store, which store would be the cheapest? Would you rather shop at Stop and Shop, A&P or Fairway Markets? Click on the store to see the weekly circular.
If you could buy the items from different stores, how would you do it to spend the least amount of money? Apart from the cost, can you think of any other advantages or disadvantages with buying these items at just one shop?
You can work with a friend or individually. Be sure to give detailed answers and always use evidence to back up answer!
Here is your shopping list:
- 1 gallon of milk
- 3 pounds of apples
- 2 containers of Breyer’s Vanilla Ice Cream
