The Frugal Girl

SEPTEMBER 8, 2023

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.

February’s homework was to clean out and organize the refrigerator, freezer, and kitchen pantry. I tackled those projects early in the month and wrote about them: 5 Easy Steps to an Organized Pantry and Clean Your Refrigerator. I found it easier to keep a tab on my grocery spending and I’m going to continue to use cash.

Back in the summer, our grocery spending hit $500 and I decided to shift our budget to $500 to accommodate our changing eating habits. To be successful with staying on budget this month, you will most definitely need to plan. Action Step 2 : Continue to plan your meals and grocery list.
