Shopping for fruit and vegetables at the supermarket-proiezionidiborsa.it
Grocery shopping and balancing the accounts has increasingly become a titanic undertaking. With a look at the seasonal products and these offers we will be able to pay only 5 euros for the weekly fruit and vegetables.
There are many items that affect the final price of fruit and vegetables. We always recommend grocery shopping at farmers’ markets and buy as many 0 km products as possible. The short supply chain is synonymous with quality and freshness, but it also allows you to skip the intermediate steps that cause prices to rise. However, not everyone has the opportunity to buy from the producer and so here’s our question: can we do the weekly fruit and vegetable shopping with 5 euros?
How to shop for fruit and vegetables at the supermarket or discount store for 5 euros a week?
It’s true, said this it seems like a mission impossible, but by following these tips it could become an achievable goal. First let’s take a look at “The shopping bag”, a service offered by the Italian Telematic Commodity Exchange. The company, a spin-off of the Italian Chamber System, does the price point in wholesale markets of the major Italian squares for fruit and vegetables. The BMTI reports how they are registering excellent prices and quality for tangerines and tarocco oranges. Instead, the clementine harvest is about to end, therefore, by decreasing supply, prices could rise. Still excellent availability and low prices for dark courgettes, lettuce, cauliflower and turnip tops. We will also find i first artichokes of the type Roman dialect, the so-called violets. Let’s now take a look at the prices and offers offered by some national supermarkets and discount stores.
