Comparison Shop
Whether online or buy organic products at local farmers markets, check around for the best price.

So check out the used items at a discount or a store before going to the more expensive option (but be careful when organic food stores in the "quality of the providers may not be so fresh and good, local small).
Buy in Bulk
The more you buy, the more you save. So, share on what you use in many recipes and find a mass of frozen products online or at your local store, but make sure any clues or freeze to avoid waste.

Create your own
You can make your own food for cheaper than you can buy pre-made food. Based on pre-plant as dietary supplements if you are traveling or one of those days when you moved. Give yourself a break every now and then. You do not need to be perfect all the time!
