Tired of spending your Whole Paycheck on groceries?

Whole Foods discount Supermarkets have noticed that shoppers' habits have changed due to economic pressures.

Check out awesome Andrea Walker's story about grocery store discounts and promotions designed to attract and keep customers who have less money to spend.

We told you earlier about Whole Foods Market's "Shopping on a Shoe String" events, which are held on a regular basis at local stores.

Andrea compiled a list of other promotions, which include:

 

•Whole Foods is hosting "Shopping on a Shoe String" tours

•Giant is offering 5% grocery discounts for those who buy five prescriptions and free milk after a customer purchases six cartons

•Safeway provides gasoline discounts with grocery purchases and is pricing certain items at $5 on Fridays.

•Shoppers Food & Pharmacy recently extended a triple-coupon promotion.
