Family Balance Sheet

JULY 16, 2015

And my absolute #1 way to save money at the grocery store is to PLAN OUR MEALS. If you make this one simple change, you will reduce your grocery spending substantially. When you walk into a grocery store with a plan, you eliminate impulse & duplicate purchases. Meal planning really is that effective.

As my kids have grown into teenagers who eat as much as adults, I spend about $800-1000/month–this includes anything I buy at the grocery store, so it includes paper and cleaning products. When I plan a menu, my spending is generally under control. Seriously, my kids claim hunger ALL.DAY.LONG.
