Social media hacks have emerged as game changers for netizens in every walk of life, be it financial decision-making, career choices, or even everyday activities such as doing their laundry or buying groceries. Among several influencers and experts doling out tips, TikTok sensation Will Coleman has managed to garner the attention of millions with his innovative 6-1 grocery shopping technique. The simplicity of his approach has not only made him a social media sensation, but has also revolutionized the way people approach the mundane task of grocery shopping, by turning it into a cost-saving and time-effective experience.

Coleman's revelation, shared on January 2nd, has paved the way for millions to streamline their grocery shopping routine. The basic premise is to enter the store with a clear plan, focusing on vegetables, fruits, proteins, starches, spreads, and treats as essential categories. While dietary restrictions and allergies might modify the specific items, the overall strategy remains consistent.

“It’s super, super simple,” Coleman mentions in his viral video.

The core idea behind the 6-1 technique is to minimize the time spent wandering through aisles, contemplating meals. Instead, Coleman encourages his followers to follow a specific pattern when choosing their items. Six veggies, five fruits, four proteins, three starches, two spreads, and, of course, one indulgent treat for yourself.

Coleman emphasizes the flexibility of the method, urging individuals to be creative within the specified categories. Variations can be introduced based on personal preferences, seasonal availability, or ongoing sales.

Vegetables, according to Coleman, are often surprisingly affordable, making them a wise choice for budget-conscious shoppers. He suggests prioritizing greens over an abundance of protein options. Canned vegetables and fruits are recommended for those on a strict budget, offering both convenience and cost-effectiveness.

Coleman’s method extends beyond the confines of the supermarket. By adhering to the 6-1 technique, he claims to have significantly reduced food waste and slashed his weekly grocery bill. The TikTok sensation, who consistently cooks for his channel and family, attests that the hack has saved him “hundreds of dollars.”

“I’m not throwing out food at all. When I go to the grocery store, I come back home with my particular groceries for the week, I know exactly what I have in my fridge, the exact meals I’m going to make, and I know how to use all the ingredients,” Coleman explains.

Adaptable to households of all sizes, the 6-1 plan can be adjusted to accommodate the needs of individuals cooking for one or a family of four. Proteins can be doubled to ensure an ample supply of food for the entire week.

While some may argue that such a structured approach limits culinary creativity, Coleman insists it serves as a foundation rather than a strict guideline. The absence of specific items under each category encourages users to experiment with their diets, fostering a sense of exploration in the kitchen.

“A big piece of feedback that I’m receiving is that people are being more explorative with their diets,” Coleman notes. “They’re not eating the same thing over and over and over.”

In essence, Will Coleman's 6-1 grocery shopping hack has evolved from just another viral trend into a practical and sustainable solution for individuals seeking to save money, minimize food waste, and explore more. As social media continues to influence daily habits, this game-changing technique may very well reshape the way people approach their weekly trips to the grocery store.
