The Sixth Commandment

Thou shall not shop on an empty stomach!

This one should also be patently obvious, but you can scarcely believe how many people violate this one.

The reason you never want to go to the store to buy food on an empty stomach is if you're hungry, you're more likely to by to much of what you do need, and even more of what you don't need.

I'm not saying eat a full course meal, or eat to the point you feel bloated, but a PBJ (peanut butter and jelly sandwich) and a glass of milk taken an hour or so before you head to the store, can help you save a lot of money.

By the way, I only recommend PBJs because they're one of my favorite comfort foods. You should eat what you enjoy.
