Top Things To Stock Up On In June

Inside: Trying to save more money? Check out the top things to stock up on in June to really save. It’s an easy way to save more money without much work.

One of my favorite (and one of the easiest!) ways to save money is by stocking up on foods when the prices are at their lowest. I can buy foods for 50-60% of the regular prices. The best part about stocking up when things are on sale is that it doesn’t take a lot of my time. Just stock up to really save money on your grocery bill.

June is one of my favorite months to stock up on foods. My kiddo is out of school for summer and we need all the extra grocery deals we can get! Plus June is national dairy month and who doesn't want to stock up on extra yummy ice cream. Besides ice cream, we have so many fresh fruits and veggies for cheap this month. So check out the top things to stock up on in June to really save.

Seasonal Produce

June is one of my favorite months for fresh fruits and vegetables. My family eats so many fresh foods this month. We love corn on the cob and watermelon with some BLTs with dinner. I love being able to buy so many veggies for cheap. Just because fresh fruits and veggies often spoil quickly you can still stock up on them. You can buy extra to can, freeze or dehydrate.

You can very easily make strawberry freezer preserves or you can try peach preserves. They are both amazing recipes. You can also see how to make your berries last longer.

Stock up on the following fruits and vegetables to really save! Blueberries, Cantaloupe, Corn, Green Beans, Kiwi, Lettuce, Peaches, Strawberries, Watermelons, and Yellow Squash.

Foods

It's only June but before you know it the 4th of July will be here. For a week or two leading up to the 4th, we will see great deals on hot dogs, hot dog buns, ketchup, mustard, chips, dips, and drinks. Pretty much all the stuff you need for grilling. But, skip buying the grill this month. Grills will be at their highest in June and not go on sale until late July and August.

June is the national dairy month so there will be deals on milk, butter, and ice cream treats. Ice cream is one of my favorite things to stock up on in June. I like to buy enough ice cream to last us all summer long. You can freeze milk and eggs if you want to really stock up on them too. Make sure you keep an eye out for coupons on ice cream too! June is also iced tea month, so you can stock up on iced tea.

Other Items

I know summer hasn’t officially started, but stores will be ready to push out the spring gardening tools and items to make way for pool toys, grills, and other summer items. If you need any gardening tools, now is a great time to buy them on clearance. You can also buy seeds on clearance and save them back for next year. Check out the best way to store seeds from year to year here.

There will plenty of sales of summer items like sunblock, bug spray, and grilling accessories. We will also see great sales on party supplies for graduations. Plus, we should see some lingerie discounts with Victoria Secrets semi-annual sale. June is also one of the best months to buy a laptop because they start the back to school sales. If you are in the market for a laptop this is your month. You can get some great deals in June.

Saving money doesn’t always have to take a lot of time. Just by stocking up on a few extras when they are at their lowest can save you $100’s. What are your favorite things to stock up on in June?
