I shop at BJ's Wholesale once a month. When I'm there I pick up plenty of healthy foods in single servings so I have good snack options throughout the month. Like Chobani yogurt and Dole Fruit Naturals. And BJ's always has tons of coupons so I save money too.

I found a whole list of healthy snack options at www.discountcoffee.com. They have them featured all on the home page. And great prices too. I bought the Lipton chicken soup for these cold winter days - and the Healthy Pop Butter popcorn. Can't wait till it arrives.
I am very picky in the grocery store, I read the labels and buy healthier snack options because if I buy the high calorie stuff then i eat the high calorie stuff all in one sitting !!!!!
Hungry while running errands? Don't hit the fast food--hit the grocery store!
If you're not at home (eg. running errands) and you find that you're hungry, find a grocery store and run in. You can get tons of healthy snack options in small portions for very little money! This lets you satisfy your hunger without resorting to the drive through!
MORE INFORMATION:
My favorite is to go to the produce section--in the refrigerator cases they often have containers of already cut up fruit. They also sell single string cheese/cheddar cheese, little bags of chips or pretzels, whatever!
