Family Balance Sheet

MARCH 2, 2011

Groceries are the one area in our household budget that I feel like I have the most control over. The weeks that I take the time to plan the menu are the weeks that I have control over our spending. Menu planning saves me time. Menu planning saves my sanity. Menu planning saves me money.

Groceries is one budget category that can get out of control very quickly, and that’s before inflation. However, it can be an easy budget category to manage, but it takes some planning, skill, and organization. These are strategies I use weekly to help keep my grocery bill in line with our budget.

Groceries is one budget category that can get out of control very quickly. 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.

Create A Budget. Maybe you don’t want to cook at all during your vacation or maybe eating out for every meal is beyond what your budget can handle. We''ll plan the menu weeks before we leave, so I can do most of my grocery shopping at home instead of our vacation spot where prices are more expensive.
