The Final Grocery Budget Challenge Post

Grocery Budget Challenge | September & October

The Goal of the Grocery Budget Challenge is to be creative with our meal planning and grocery shopping so that we do not over-spend. We don’t want to make our families miserable with bland meals, boring snacks, and not enough food in the house, but we must stay on budget. Lately when I see my bill […]

Grocery Budget Challenge: May & June Meeting

Oops! I completely missed the May 30 meeting. I’ll blame it on Ruby, since that was the day that we picked her up from the Brittany rescue–my mind was a bit preoccupied. One more picture of Ruby…and then we’ll move on to groceries. I can’t help myself…she is so stinkin’ cute…even if she is on […]

My $2.50 Homemade Pizza

  My husband doesn’t always get to eat dinner with me and the girls during the week due to his work schedule, so I like to make a big deal out of dinner time on the weekends. We used to go out to dinner every Friday night, but we’ve put a stop to that treat as […]

How I Spent $425 on Groceries in March

I have been diligently challenging myself to spend less at the grocery store this year. I’m trying to find that balance of staying within a set budget while still eating well. My husband and kids won’t tolerate a bare kitchen and bad, boring food–they would seriously revolt. But we have some serious financial goals to […]
