Grocery Spending/Menu Plan | Plastic vs. Cloth Edition
So, to make you feel better, here is a picture of what the back of my van usually looks like after a grocery shopping trip.
Tags: Grocery Reports Menu Plans frugal menu menu pla Both when I posted this photo in September (while we were on vacation) and when I used it as an illustration for my Walmart post, several people have been vaguely horrified at the pile of plastic bags in the back of my van.
See?

I wish I hadn’t bought…
This post is brought to you by CouponCactus.com, a great source of online coupon codes for taxes, groceries, and more.
My spending has gone crazy over the past few months. Sure, I have reasons behind each purchase (I’m doing a race in May that requires additional gears, buying fabric is cheaper than buying curtains, I had a gift card and a rare coupon for the clothing store, and I hadn’t seen my friend in months), but this kind of spending A new set of gears for my bike ($90), yards of brown suede for new curtains ($88), two new outfits for a trip to NYC ($152), and

Breakdown of my grocery spending
As you can see, coupons are not a large part of my grocery shopping strategy…I only used $3 worth this week. Tags: Grocery Spendin A friend of mine(Hi, Tamika!) asked for another one of these types of posts, so I dug my receipts out of the recycling bag. Keep in mind that this is not everything we’ll be eating this week, nor will we eat all of this over the course of the next 7 days.

Grocery Spending and Menu Plan-2.28
This is the last week of February, which means that the Grocery Challenge I’ve been participating in is up after this week. Last week, I was $1 over budget, so as long as I kept my grocery spending to $79 or less this week, I was all set to make my goal of spending $320 or less for the month of February.
actually shopped at three stores this week, because a local grocery store was having a very good sale on chicken breasts. I I got 7 pounds of chicken breasts for $1.35/pound, which is a delightful price.

Grocery Spending and Menu Plan
This week I decided to divide up my groceries and take two pictures; one of my Weis groceries($17.21)…
…and 8230;and one of my Aldi groceries($35.74).
However, after buying those things I got $5 in ExtraCare Bucks(they’re like cash to spend at CVS), so it was basically a wash. In addition to those two trips, I spent $5 at CVS…I got a bottle of Irish Spring body wash, a tube of Colgate Toothpaste, one Dry Idea deodorant, and two small boxes of Wheat Thins. Even if I add that in, though, I only spent $57.95, so I’m over $20 under

Grocery Spending and Menu Plan-Crazy Weekend Edition
Tags: Grocery Spending Menu Plans Organizatio Lately, an awful lot of side work has been coming my way…I’ve had weddings, funerals, and choirs to play for, and a number of photography jobs too. This is good, because it will help us in our recent effort to ramp up our emergency fund , but on the other hand, it’s making me awfully busy(and I was busy before!).
