Does "10% More Free" get you to buy extra product? Some products, beverages in particular, are already in larger packages, giving us more than the label says to insure that they don't run the risk of being short weight, which is sure to get the FDA's attention and fines. Don't think that little extra isn't built into the price already! So when you see the "extra free" label, make sure it's not the same size package with a special label.

1. Shop around for cheese
2. Pay attention to package sizes
3. Don't be fooled by "New" or "New and Improved"
4. Check the calories
5. Don't trust "tastes great!" claims
6. Read the nutritional label (not the brand)
7. Think twice about rebates
8. Enter contests without buying the product
9. Don't believe the scanner
10. Don't go shopping when you're hungry or cranky
