Food prices continue to increase, but there are ways to bulk up your cupboards without breaking the bank.
Dee Debarros, one half of TikTok's "Coupon Couple" joined CTV Morning Live to discuss how to save like a pro.
"We spend about $120 to $150 a month and that equates to about $600 of groceries," she said.
Debarros says a lot of coupons these days are digital and there are several apps that can help you save money.
"There's cashback apps, there's receipt apps, there's loyalty programs like PC Optimum, Scene points, Air Miles, and all of these things lower your out-of-pocket costs for groceries," she said. "If you're really organized, it's super easy for the cashiers. If you're price-matching or using coupons, knowing what the rules are can really speed up the process and you can use coupons at self-checkout."
