Having recently gone through our pantry (and throwing stuff out! egad!), we decided that we needed to do some rethinking about what we buy. It does not save money to buy things that you don't eat, no matter how much they are on sale.
For instance, we used to buy many different types of cereal based almost solely on what was on sale. But our family of teenagers and adults have developed different tastes. They eat more variety, yogurt, waffles, bagels, toast, eggs, etc. We sat down a wrote down the kind of cereal that gets eaten around here. Wheaties, frosted miniwheats, cheerios, raisin bran, old fashion oats, and cream of wheat. Many of those can be purchased at Aldi's or in store brand. We are revising other things that we buy as well.
