Family Balance Sheet
OCTOBER 14, 2013
It is so easy to walk into the grocery store with an idea of what you will spend, walk out with a bill that is double and get home to discover that you have nothing to eat. Groceries can get out of control fast, but all it takes for you to get your grocery spending in line with your budget is PLANNING.

Try replacing some paper products on your list with cloth and re-usable products that you probably have around the house and you will not only reduce your grocery spending, but you will also reduce your waste. Instead of using aluminum foil or plastic wrap to cover casseroles and leftovers, store the food in re-usable containers.

The weeks that I take the time to plan the menu are the weeks that I have control over our spending. The weeks were I don’t menu plan are the weeks that I’m at the grocery store multiple times or we get take out multiple times, leading to an out of control grocery spending. Menu planning saves me time. Develop a system.

I''m happy to report that I was able to reduce our grocery spending in August by about $50 and I''ll put that money in our Christmas savings. Our grocery spending has crept up over that last several months and it was time to rein it back in. You''ll avoid all sorts of duplicate purchases and reduce food waste too.

Over the holidays, I wasn’t as diligent with my meal planning and our grocery bill went over what I budget for food. Not only do I need to get control of our grocery spending again, but I also am challenging myself with a new budget for January. Keep your pantry, freezer and refrigerator organized.
