Before you buy, find out how many points to give for the kind of processed foods you want. Prices do not set the points. The Government will set different points for each kind and size no matter what the price. Your grocer will put up the official list of points where you can see it. It will also be in the newspapers. The points will not change just because the prices do. 3. Then you buy, take the right amount of blue stamps out of the book. Do this in front of your grocer or delivery man .and hand them te him. The i&roeer must collect a ration Ktamp, or stamps, for all the rationed processed Toads he ells. Every rationed processed food will take points as well as money. 4. Do not use more stamps than you need to make Ytjp the right amount. For example, if the food yon buy calls for 13 points it is better to tear otrt an appoint and a 5-pomt stamp than two 5- point stamps and a Z- and a 1-point stamp. Save your - smaller point stamps for low point foods. You can take the stamps from more than one book belonging to your house hold if you need to. f SHOW VOU 1 llOOK PUASE J I, .5 IMPORTANT Yon mar use ALL the books of the household lo bay processed foods for the household.
