If you want to save money, the advice went, just cut back on dining at restaurants and start whipping up some homemade meals. Oh, how times have changed. Cooking at home isn't exactly the affordable option anymore. It's still cheaper than going out to eat, but it's far from cheap. Food prices have skyrocketed -- they're up 25% over the last four years! So $100 in groceries four years ago now costs you about $125. There's no way around it. Everyone needs to buy groceries, after all. But you could earn money back on those expensive food bills with a cash back card. And if food is one of your biggest expenses, it makes sense to get a card that earns lots of cash back on supermarket spending.
