set you back a small fortune 花掉你一大笔钱
A meal out at a good restaurant or even a pizza parlour can set you back a small fortune, so cooking for yourself makes financial sense. 在一家不错的餐厅甚至是在披萨店里吃饭可能会花掉你一大笔钱，所以自己做饭是具有经济意义的。
be a savvy shopper 明智的购物者
But with the rise in food prices, it's important to be a savvy shopper to keep your food bill in check.但是随着食品价格的上涨，为了控制你的食品账单，明智的购物是很重要的。
daily staples 日常主食
Our supermarket shelves are packed with a tempting array of food items: from the daily staples, like bread and milk, to the exotic, like mangoes and saffron. 我们超市的货架上摆满了各种诱人的食品:从面包和牛奶等日常主食，到芒果和藏红花等珍奇食品。
at a price 以很高的代价；以较高的价格
There's also the option of buying ready meals – convenient food that comes at a price. 如今，你也可以选择购买即食食品——花费金钱去购买一些方便食品。
feel the pinch 感到手头拮据
However, if you're feeling the pinch, there are things you can do to make the money you spend on food go further. 然而，如果你感到手头拮据，你可以做些事情来赚取你在食物上的花销。
when money is tight 当手头紧的时候
on special offer 特价
A favourite pastime of mine to help when money is tight is to stock up on items that are on special offer – such as BOGOF deals (Buy one, get one free). 当手头紧的时候，我最喜欢做的一件事就是购买特价商品，比如BOGOF特价商品(买一送一)。
perishable /perbl/ items 易腐物品
However, this is more of a problem when it comes to perishable items like fresh fruit and vegetables. 然而，当涉及到像新鲜水果和蔬菜这样的易腐物品时，这就更成问题了。
help your cash flow 节省现金流
cut back on 减少
Of course, the biggest thing you can do to help your cash flow is to cut back on takeaway coffees and lunches. Making your own is usually healthier for you and your finances!当然，最节省现金流的办法就是减少购买咖啡和午餐外卖。自己动手做饭对你和你的财务更加有利!
