Family Balance Sheet

NOVEMBER 12, 2014

While my husband works hard to bring the money in, my job is to make it go as far as it can while feeding our family healthy meals. My #1 tip for trimming grocery spending is an easy one: Serve simple, frugal, scheduled meals. A few years ago, I heard my Pastor’s wife list off the meals that they eat on certain days of the week.

What I Spent So I went to pull together my grocery spending for the week and I realized that it’s all quick trips to Safeway. This is better than endless nights of eating out, but definitely not as frugal as an organized trip to Aldi. I spent $63 at Safeway, spread out between an embarrassing number of trips.

However, groceries is also an easy budget category to control, but it takes some planning, skill, and organization. Personally, if I don’t make a shopping list and plan my meals, my grocery budget is toast. When I plan a menu, my spending is generally under control. That is a lot of money, so I plan our meals.
