Hello! How can I help you today?

I'm trying to save money on groceries. What's a good strategy for shopping in season?
user
Shopping in season is a great way to save money. It means buying produce that's currently abundant and at its cheapest. For example, in the summer, you can find affordable berries, peaches, and corn.
assistant
That sounds like a good plan. What are some seasonal fruits and vegetables for the fall?
user
In the fall, you can find affordable apples, pears, squash, and leafy greens like kale and spinach. These items are often cheaper and taste better when they're in season.
assistant
Okay, that helps. Are there any specific stores or markets that usually have better deals on seasonal produce?
user
You can often find good deals on seasonal produce at farmer's markets, local co-ops, or discount grocery stores. Some larger grocery stores also offer sales on seasonal items, so it's worth checking their weekly ads.
