Some advice to avoid perishables going bad: use the fridge and freezer a lot. Freeze butter, milk, cream, eggs, meat if you're not going to use them often. Refridgerate things like bread that you might normally leave out but don't eat fast enough. Drink fruit/vegetable juices instead of buying the actual produce if you want something cheaper, and longer-lasting.
Also pop hard liquor in the fridge or freezer if you want it to hold its flavour.
