My Personal Grocery Challenge

This week I ended up shopping at Walmart, even though they don't have the best produce. Next week I'm going back to Target...much nicer and about the same price. I won't shop at Kroger again...their produce was slim pickens...and, not very tasty.

I create a menu before I create my shopping list. This way I know exactly what I need for each meal. If I am at the grocery store, and an item is out of stock or the produce isn't up to par...I will change my list (and meal) on the fly.

Finally, go to the store with a list...this will save you OODLES of cash!...BUT, you must stick to your list, otherwise you may overspend. Try to avoid those impulse buys as well.

This all may seem like a lot of work...but, it actually does save time and money! Yes, next time you are grocery shopping...think of me, okay?

Wow! Are you losing weight on this menu? My family (all men) would totally shot me if I had those meals. sigh

They like their meat.

I usually go to the store and look for sale items and then kind of plan meals. heehee I am not as organized as you in this area.

Blessings,
Debbie
